Vlog 277: Steem blockchain grows organically + Weiss Rating + Steemia, another new mobile app + Steempress.

in life •  7 years ago 


The amount of development on the steem blockchain is ever increasing.

Another mobile app has been released and it's called Steemia.



Just like Esteem and bSteem, this app will allow you to access the Steem blockchain on your mobile to read, create and curate content.

Sadly I haven't been able to test it because it's Android only for now, but an iOS version is on its way.

The main point here is that Esteem been the leader for years, but in the last month 2 new mobile apps have been released.

What an increase in development on the mobile front!

I talk about it more in my vlog. (start from @3:05)



I am a witness with our developer group @blockbrothers for the Steem blockchain. If you want to support us I would appreciate your vote here.

We build Steemify a notification app for your Steemit account for iOS.

Thanks for the mention of Steemia :D

We do take beneficiare because we pay servers and there is not way at the moment for us to pay it on our own. However, just 10% (or less depending on the bill) will be used to cover the development of the application while the rest will be used to power up our bot voting account to give back to the community what we take.

Our goal is not to growth alone. We want to growth with you!

What I've noticed is that there are lot of users that don't know about beneficiares. We wanted to be transparent and stated this in the introduction post unlikely another projects. Some of the projects over the blockchain do take 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%. Even, there are some that also take beneficiary from comments (which I feel it is like an abuse).

Most of the users that asked me about this percentage and how this will be charged, they didn't know that those apps they use actually takes beneficiare.

I don't mind beneficiary rewards because I know they pay for development.

Competition is always a good thing. It forces us to do our best. A monopoly renders people complacent and satisfied with mediocrity. - Nancy Pearcey - BrainyQuote.

Competition plays an important role for the improvement of the system and its services and the overall winner will be the users! This is exciting!

@exyle,
Is that Esteem app working for Android? I wish to install it then!

Cheers~

Now Esteem has got few competitor's, which is very good for overall product improvement...Happy to see the growth of Steem Blockchain!

The higher the competition, the higher the quality of the product.

Thanx for Information :-)

We now have different ways to access the steem blockchain that's good as the competition will make the providers of the various steem apps put their best foot forward.

Mark is it just Me or am I surprised that you of all people don't own an Android Phone too. Being that you are a part of Block Brothers I am surprised with your background that you don't have both kinds of Smartphones so you can test out both sides................@exyle

Man, what you just said makes perfect sense...I'll will get one.

That is why we are Friends, I am just trying to help out..................@exyle

I've never really used any of the mobile apps for Steem, I still prefer the regular old desktop. But one thing I've noticed when checking out the Steemia introduction post is that they charge a 15% fee from each post made.

Is this common practice with all the Steem mobile apps and alternative interfaces?

It depends per app/frontend. I don't mind it because it pays for development.

Hello,

The 15% from our app will be distributed in the following way:

  • 10% will be used to cover development cost which includes server + cloud storage for assets.
  • 5% to power up our voting bot to give back what we take from our users.

We do not want to growth alone but we want to growth with all the community. I wish I can remove the beneficiare from the app. However, servers need to be paid in order to deliver content easily :/

another excellent summary , thank you and I hope you have a fantastic day also

Welcome back, exyle from the London Cryptocurrency Show. I hope you have a wonderful time there. The STEEM price had seen a pump couple of days ago and fortunately, it is stabilizing for the time being.

I agree with you that many apps are currently being developed and improved and bright times are ahead for us here. Upvoted!

Definitely good to have some time off @exyle. Glad you took the time to do so.

Interesting to hear you spend three hours doing research every morning. No wonder you know so much! 😁

Now I have to decide if it's time to revive one of my Wordpress blogs. I think it might be a bit outdated so might need a bit of work. I could maybe post just some of my blogs there . . . will have to think about it a bit more.

Have a fun day! 😊

I stick to my beloved Steemify which you recommended a few months ago. For anyone who hasn’t tried any steemit app, I definitely recommend to try and use any of them. I just don’t want to throw out my keys to any more apps that’s created out there. Even if it could be better than what I use. Today, it’s so easy to get hacked. I’m aware with my mini account I’m not a target, but in the future it could change and this key I share will stay there forever. I know they say “we don’t store it in our app”, but whom can you trust these days?

Glad to read you like Steemify so much :)

Welcome back from London and the CryptoCurrency Show. :)

We just found out about bSteem, but didn't know there was a third one: Steemia. We still prefer using Steemit/Busy/DTube on our laptops and when we check Steemit on our phones it through the Internet browser. Maybe we will consider looking at the apps, but first we need to create space on our phones. Delete useless apps and store photos on the cloud.

Thanks for letting us know @exyle! The future of steem for mobile industry is starting to be clear now. we're really lucky to the first ones to experience steem and steemit.

I just downloaded the app. Looks nice, so I will keep it for now. My ESteem wasnt working for a while and cant get the notifications like before :(
Any News about the Steemify :) For Android!

It's getting closer and closer to beta :)

Even i when search results in google steemit tops the chart not only about steem but about different things as well steemit is growing all organic and word of mouth plays an important role

It is getting better and bigger everyday. Great to see so much involvement on the Steem blockchain. And it is great to be a (little) part of it. Looking at myself, things are getting better and better each day :)

Good to have you back sir. Always enjoy the updates of everything going on on the blockchain.

Love the all the mobile apps that are coming out and should allow for so much more user adoption.

And I think you are right when you said about 2 years or so for this thing to sky rocket. We're all in a great place right now, just need to focus and keep the content and engagement going!

Let's go Steem!!!! Rooting for us all :)

Please talk about the SP delegation issues of Dlive and dmania. They recieved a big delegation from the steem account to help thier community but it seems they prefer to upvote their own privat content. What do you think @exyle ?

This is really awesome, I was waiting for such app in android.

Awesome news. It’s exciting to see apps getting developed on steem blockchain.

Hey Exyle, I too believe that Steem is growing well organically. I'm from London but didn't get to go to the Lodon Cryptocurreny how. It sounded like you had a lot of fun. I found that getting new users to see the vast potential of the Steem ecosystem troublesome to I created : https://steemtrain.media . New users can view what's available on there and there's a 'How To Start' section for them as well. I hope this helps onboard new users! I've recently posted a promo video for it on Dtube. If you find the website useful could you use your influence to upvote it please? https://steemit.com/steem/@knowerlittle/hbuhsx2n . I've also just introduced myself today on Steemit as well. Excited to be part of this growing community!

Wow! Awesome application let me download it. Thank you for this update, there is a rapid development in steemit blockchain. @exyle

great news :)and it was really awesome apps

I too have IOS. Seems like I will have to wait too........

You reminded me of bsteem !! I had to download it and I forgot !! Thanks for the positive news as always :D

And I have a doubt , Does bsteem also charges a percentage?

Rivalry assumes a vital part for the change of the framework and its administrations and the general victor will be the clients! This is energizing!

The effort put at developing the steem block chain is really commendable. It serves as an inspiration for a newbie like me. I just want to do much more than I can offer knowing that all you guys are giving is the best.

I am surprised as in a few months they have released many applications and extensions for steemit, every time the developers are excited with steemit the best of all is that we already have several to choose to use, the extension that is making the cut is steemplus for me the best extension that exists at the moment.

The inspiration's

Words are not small to compared your work, but never the the less excellent job from the boss himself,more from you boss...

That's good to hear, a great development is happening recently. A lot of user are using Android so I know people will like it.
Thank God the IOS version is also on is way so others can also be benefited from it.
Thanks for sharing @exyle

bright future for steem... I like that :-)

It is indeed great looking that Steem Blockchain based app are being developed and the improvement of it is indeed significant !

These new development will create attraction hence new users as a matter of fact !All in all good for us !

Sometimes our body takes over our mind and needs to have some fun to keep going strong... Especially if your brain know that it is so exhausting making research and do a competent job.

STEEM and all around it is killing it, also thanks to the green markets. I´m astonished with so many recent projects being introduced to me, almost everyday, I see new things that lead me to research even deeper on this technology and potential that STEEM is exploring to the limits.

It is fun to follow and profitable!!

Liked it,.

Addition of new app steemia will definitely help to improve the quality of Esteem & bsteem. It is a great news for the community and user. Healthy competition always increase the quality of apps which eventually give growth to steem and people get benefit from these app. @exyle

Slowly we are all going to get richer, I love this community! NICE VLOGS MAN! :D

It keeps growing daily on the Steem network
Steemia it is
Sounds like "Steemian"

Hi
Thank you
For your writing
I've seen your writing come pretty much
I hope to write something better in the future.

I think the steemit website itself works so well as a web app, that I haven't even felt the need for a dedicated app 😁

Congratulations @exyle!
