![october update.png](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/helpie/NJ5Gj3Zx-october20update.png) # Greetings, Helpies and Steemians of all walks! ### It's time for your monthly Helpie ![image.png](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/helpie/L6mFqmUX-image.png) Join me, @carrieallen, as I get you up to date on all the haps. ☕Sit back, grab a cup of joe and get ready. # Overall... It's been quiet around many of the Discord communities, but Helpie chat can still be found to be 'pumpin'. That's a thing, right? Anywho, I'd like to shoutout to all you active Helpies. Without each one of you, we simply wouldn't be what we are: TOTES AMAZEBALLS. 😍 ![](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/helpie/3kNf4Ece-rainbow20motion.gif) ## Witness Updates With the price of STEEM still so low, we started another powerdown on October 22. This is the second time we've had to do a small (one week) power down to help pay for the witness server. We are stopping the current power down on October 29 (later today), only keeping the funds we need and powering up the rest again. We totally missed a block on October 17, but GinaBot notified us and we had everything under control in moments. Other than that, the server has been smooth sailing. ## Helpiecake Curation Team (The Bakers)

❤️This is the heart of Helpie.❤️ We 'bake' posts by curating and sending a bit of cake and love to all those who are going above and beyond... and need a little boost. I really think that manual curation is the most rewarding. And now that I (@carrieallen) am spending a couple of hours a day on it, it's less of a chore and more of something I look forward to! There's so much amazing content here to consume! Thank you to all our fabulous bakers!! ### This month we 'baked' 1049 posts! That's all manual, baby! Last month we curated 902 posts... that's up147 posts! We have channels and bots set up (thanks @eonwarped ! ) in our private Helpie Discord server to make it super easy to submit posts to be Helpiecaked (yes, I've made it a verb). It even tags the person who baked the post! Oh! And now there's a Spanish bot for the Spanish posts too! 😍 And... we have a group of AMAZING curators (and creators too) who spend time looking for those lost gems. **🍰Our Current Helpiecake Bakers🍰**: | | | | | |---|---|---|---| |@ankapolo |@amberyooper| @juliakponsford| @bflanagin (humblebeaver)| |@blewitt |@carrieallen |@clayboyn |@crimsonclad | |@kharma.scribbles| @d-vine |@ecoinstant |@enchantedspirit| | @enginewitty |@eonwarped |@foxyspirit |@free-reign | |@torico |@hiddenblade| @ilazramusic| @isaria | |@itstime |@katrina-ariel| @livvu |@lunaticpandora (TheRealFrog) | |@macchiata |@mckenziegary |@meno| @yestermorrow| |@niallon11 |@paintingangels| @pechichemena |@pennsif | |@raoufwilly |@scrawly | @solominer |@staceyjean| |@stavrin |@sunravelme| @swelker101 |@veryspider| | @vibesforlife |@victoriabsb |@yidneth |@zipporah| |@ashikstd |@georgeboya |@joseacabrerav |@steemflow| |@wesphilbin |@priyanarc |@azizbd |@daan | |@johndoer123|@tcpolymath |@yestermorrow |@rem-steem | ![](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/helpie/3kNf4Ece-rainbow20motion.gif) ## HELPIE Token

https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/helpie/euabXpg8-helpie20token.png

Have you received some HLPE tokens lately and don't know what to do with them?! You've come to the right place. Check out [THIS POST](https://steemit.com/helpie/@helpie/new-helpie-token-hlpe-rewards-distribution) on all the ways you can currently EARN HLPE tokens (on and off chain). There's also a Step-By-Step tutorial (with pics) on how to REDEEM those HLPE for upvotes. 😍 Still confused? Reach out! We ARE Helpies, after all. 😍 ![](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/helpie/3kNf4Ece-rainbow20motion.gif) ## How to access your HELPIE tokens (or any tokens on Steem-Engine) The easiest way to view, send and receive any steem-engine tokens is via the browser add-on called KEYCHAIN, created by Witness #1 on the STEEM blockchain, @ yabapmatt. ![STEEM Keychain.png](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/helpie/kQIosA9l-STEEM20Keychain.png) ## [KEYCHAIN- Chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/steem-keychain/lkcjlnjfpbikmcmbachjpdbijejflpcm?hl=en) ## [KEYCHAIN- FireFox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/steem-keychain/) Not only are you able to easily deal with all your tokens, but KEYCHAIN stores multiple STEEM account passwords and keys for you. It's *completely* safe. No one, not even Matt, has access to your passwords. If you have any questions or concerns about the application feel free to reach out. Otherwise... You can also access and do 'all the things' at [Steem-Engine.com](https://steem-engine.com/).😊 ### As always, if you find yourself in times of trouble... Just ask! ![image.png](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/helpie/395JQAh0-image.png) 💛![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmU2wc1sv1VACtaKQCMtTowygB7CLs49e7bdZaZM5rbJRt/carrie%20gif.gif) ![](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/helpie/KSrt7TT0-rainbow20motion.gif) # Past HELPIE Updates [SEPTEMBER 2019](https://steempeak.com/@helpie/helpie-update-september-2019) [AUGUST 2019](https://steempeak.com/update/@helpie/helpie-update-august-2019) [Introducing Tira Misu](https://steempeak.com/helpie/@helpie/would-you-like-to-have-some-cake) [JULY 2019](https://steempeak.com/update/@helpie/helpie-update-july-2019) [JUNE 2019](https://steempeak.com/update/@helpie/helpie-update-june-2019) [MAY 2019](https://steempeak.com/update/@helpie/helpie-update-may-2019) [APRIL 2019](https://steempeak.com/helpie/@helpie/helpie-updates-april-2019) [Helpie Token Rewards Distribution Guide](https://steemit.com/helpie/@helpie/new-helpie-token-hlpe-rewards-distribution) [MARCH 2019](https://steemit.com/helpie/@helpie/helpie-updates-march-2019) [FEBRUARY 2019](https://steemit.com/helpie/@helpie/helpie-updates-february-2019) ![](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/helpie/3kNf4Ece-rainbow20motion.gif) *Helpie is an invite-only community.
