Having people that could curate with delegations and share out the vyb tokens amongst deserving authors is a handy thing to have

I have to agree. Delegations are a great way to reward those who are actively creating and curating as it requires them to be involved to earn the curation rewards from the delegated stake. We're looking to take that another step further by providing increased rewards for curators who are active and providing further value to the community.

I am looking to use this @thegoliath main account of mine to grow and curate on vyb in the hopes I can eventually provide more to others, like how I used to on proof of brain when I was in that.

As @curatorcat.pal mentioned, engagement is extremely important too. Your mention of 1UP and its curation efforts is a doorway towards expansion and further growth, imo.

VYB has been built with the intention to complement POB and we don't plan to stop there. We're already well on the way as @vyb.pob currently sits at 281,587 POB staked (which means any downvotes on the Proof of Brain can be countered) and will be used as another funnel to reward authors and curators while also providing 50% of the curation rewards to @pob-fund to further improve the POB tribe development.
