Comprehensive Summary Sheet | Steemit Crypto Academy | Week-1 to Week-5 (Season-2)
Background
The objective of Steemit Crypto Academy is to foster crypto literacy, to induce practical intelligence of a wide variety of use-cases in the crypto domain, dedicated to the development of crypto-related education, yet at the same time, it creates an avenue to reason, to explore, and to find the right talents and to reward the effort being put by the participants.
The Crypto Academy is now into Season 2 and has already spent 5 weeks so far and Week-6 is currently running. The enthusiasm and participation across the board are overwhelming.
The Steemit Crypto Academy in the Season 1 was supported by 5 professors. Recognizing the participation rate and to smoothly curate and manage the entries it expanded to 11 professors in Season 2.
To bring down the number of spam/plagiarism cases new threshold(Min 50 reputation & a Min of 100 SP with no power down) was introduced in Season 2 and so far it is proven to be effective. The trending page of Steemit Crypto Academy is much better now, along with notable signs of improvement in the overall average quality.
The Steemit Crypto Academy in partnership with 11 professors train & educate the students through various Homework Tasks. In response, the students learn new things each week and earn(upvote) and explore the practical side of the concept. Ultimately it is enabling the naive users to earn distinction in crypto specialties.
The guidelines and objectives set out by the Steemit Crypto Academy will underpin crypto literacy in Steem Blockchain and will prove to be a beacon of light particularly for the Newcomers and naive users.
Herewith we would like to present the various statistics, tangible data, analytics to easily acquaint you all with the overall state of Steemit Crypto Academy.
Courses covered so far
Weekly sheet of total Entries up to Week-5/Season-2
With the introduction of a new threshold(Min rep 50 & Min SP 100) since Week-3, the number of entries per week has slightly dropped, but on the other side, the trending page looks much better, most importantly the spam/plagiarism cases have dropped significantly.
But the trend still remains healthy as Week-5 prints a total of 739 entries.
The average figure per week stands at 860, and the per day average figure is 143 entries/day. That's really impressive.
Please note that the participants get 6 days every week to submit their assignments.
Considering 6 professors to curate at any given time, the per day curation rate per professor on an average is 24 (approx).
Total nos of Unique authors in Crypto Academy up to Week-5/Season-2
From Week-1 to Week-5 (Season 2), a total of 4304 posts were published in Steemit Crypto Academy. The number of unique authors over the last 5 weeks stands at 810. If we take out the spammers/plagiarists from this list, then the tangible figure would be 707. That's precisely the community size in Steemit Crypto Academy at the end of Week-5.
Total nos of Winners/Unique Winners and their winning rate
Please note that all the curated assignments receive upvotes from Steemcurator02. Further, each week, three are shortlisted as winning articles by each professor and they receive an additional upvote of 10% from Steemcurator01.
Frequency- How many times an author has won.
Total Entries- How many times an author has published/submitted his/her assignments in Steemit Crypto Academy
Winning Rate= (Frequency/Total Entries)x100
The sampling of the above data is based on the assessment by the respective professors assigned to run their course. In the last 5 weeks, a total of 75 winners were declared. Of this winning list, 43 are unique winners. Their frequencies and the winning rate has been indicated in the table.
Spammers/Plagiarists(Grey List/Black List)
This list is exclusively based on the data of Spam/Plagiarism cases in Season 2 up to Week-5.
It has been a long-standing battle for us to fight the good fight against spam/plagiarism. However, with continuous vigilance, we have been able to curb spam/plagiarism of late.
In season 2, with the introduction of the new threshold, the number of spam/plagiarism cases has dropped significantly.
Until the end of week-5/Season 2, the total number of unique spammers/plagiarists stands at 103. We have categorized it into two lists--
- Black List
- Grey List
Black List- The users who spam/plagiarize more than once/many times feature in this list.
Grey List- The users who spam/plagiarize only once(so far).
All such users have been advised to correct the course, return to the path of hard work, and are asked to complete Task-3 in Newcomers' Community to develop a better understanding of content etiquette.
Note- If you feature in the Black List, the professor will skip your post, they won't curate you in Steemit Crypto Academy.
Conclusion
We have collected all sorts of data from Week-1 to Week-5 to prepare this report.
Steemit Crypto Academy is committed to spearheading efforts in crypto literacy in Steem Blockchain. It is equally committed to staffing, mentoring, training, recognition of talents & performance, rewarding them based on PoB.

At this stage, I am going through a tough situation as 4 of my family members are COVID-19 positive, and three of them are hospitalized now(one of them is critical). I seek your solidarity & generosity at this juncture to tide over the COVID-19 crisis. I will reciprocate my gratitude at an appropriate time. Thank you.
Excellent analysis - very useful data.
Particularly interested to see the Best Author table.
Thank you, and hope all goes well for your family members affected by Covid-19.

Hopefully it will pass quickly, hopefully it will be conducive quickly. Lately, Covid 19 has increased the number of sufferers in several countries. It is a pity those affected on their family and relatives.
we wish the best and hope there is a way for tomorrow to be better. May we all be given health, peace and peace. Greetings from the Indonesian Youth
Greeting!
Those users whose names are on the blacklist - Are they eligible for completing more tasks or for further support from SC02?
If they are on the blacklist they should not be graded by the Professors in the Crypto Academy and so would not get any further votes there from @steemcurator02.
Great work dear team-mate. ✅ 😃😊 Thanks so much for compiling all this data.
Thank you so much.
Steem on.
Thank you very much. You have done a wonderful job :D
Thank you.
Hello professor @sapwood. The students who are listed in black list, how they get out from it. and when they are to get curator support.
Please Guide.
Un excelente trabajo @sapwood, Felicitaciones por tu esfuerzo y dedicación para hacer las cosas cada vez mejor.
Thank you.
Wow, Professor. He is presenting a wonderful work.
I put his entire family in my prayers and that they may soon come out of this terrible situation. Blessings
Thank you.
Well detailed and structured, I hope that your relatives will recover soon.
Thank you.
Hello @prof @sapwood.
I will begin by saying i really love your analysis. It's actually one of a kind. Especially on the tabulation of the names of the various authors.
This is actually my first week participating in the Steemit Crypto Academy assignments, i can say i have really learn a lot on crypto, and hoping to learn more.
I also want to say, courage at this moment of trial in your family. Hope is all we have.
I wish them quick recovery.
Thank you.
@doctor23
Thank you.
Excellent job sir @sapwood from this everyone would be engaged in doing their own work rather than copy paste others
Thank you.
@sapwood why am i in the black list i only plagiarized my post once and it was a mistake which i corrected by editing it.
I know you don't like me @sapwood but going this far to blacklist me is crossing the line, I have been in steemit since even before 2020 because i enjoy freedom of speech and challenges also that is why i joined and just because of a mistake i made once i am being blacklisted, I thought steemit was a decentralized platform so what or who gave you the authority @sapwood to blacklist me.
I love your idea so that it will reduce a lot of copy and paste work but in my case i only did it once according to you because it was your homework post and then you went ahead to black list me but you wrote in this post that if you did it once you should be in the grey list so why am i in the black list.
I want you to prove that i have plagiarized more than once then i will shut up.
Dear @okoyejoshua
We don't hold disdain for any individual. But we are always against spam/plagiarism. And we are always fair in our approach.
We do maintain a sheet and update them on a daily basis with the number of cases.
And you have done it more than once.
Please refer to these two posts--
(1) https://steemit.com/hive-108451/@okoyejoshua/crypto-academy-week-11-homework-post-for-sapwood
(2) https://steemit.com/hive-108451/@okoyejoshua/crypto-academy-week-9-homework-post-for-sapwood
We requested you at that time not to repeat such acts again, you did not care what we requested/suggested.
Thank you.
@Sapwood so what you are saying is i will never post in steemit crypto academy again just because of two plagiarized post which can happen to any one.
As if the 0 task score is not enough or the -20% curation deduction is not enough now it's a black list. Thank you @sapwood
