I'm the first to admit that when it comes to new ideas (in this case SMT's) I always need a little bit more time to process the idea, learn and think about it.
The Steemit community has been a blessing full of information for this. The exchange of knowledge has been incredible and it's ongoing.
Today I learned that to use an SMT (as a user, not a creator) on the Steem blockchain you also need an account on the Steem blockchain. Which makes sense of course.
So when other websites implement an SMT based on the Steem blockchain their users will also need an account on the Steem blockchain.
Wow! Expect a lot more accounts incoming!
So I'm therefore assuming to make this idea work easy signups (HF20) is a must.
Which makes me very happy.
I believe easy signups, next to communities, is very important to make the Steem blockchain grow.
I talk about it more in my vlog. It starts a little late @3:33. Before that, I talk about last night and I also get interrupted by Trevor (dog).
ps. I tried Dtube twice but it gave an error uploading.

Broforce sounds like a lot of fun, but Satan is no match for CHUCK NORRIS! Hell, no one is , lol. :)
Really glad you brought up the fact that someone who would use SMTs would have to back their project up not only with Steem Power to run the dapp but would also have to fund the coin. I saw this as being extremely important b/c it would require anyone using SMTs to buy a lot of Steem Power which is great for the Steem price and the long term outlook of the platform.
In 100% agreement that easy sign ups are a must and have to be in works with the latest announcement of SMTs. It can't be done without them. Communities are something else that are needed badly and will go a long way in making the platform more "user friendly", especially for new users b/c Steemit is rather difficult to navigate in it's current state.
Have a great brother and hope you get good news from the hospital for your dad. Thoughts are with you man.

was SO much fun. Colonel James Broddock from the movie Missing in Action as played by ... Chuck Norris ... who else than Chuck could defeat Satan
SMTs
In regards to SMTs, listening to what you're explaining. Am I right in thinking the following:
Let's say we have social site X.com, they create and issue XMT (X Media Token)
and let's assume that 1 XMT = 0.1 steem
If an X.com user were to have 1000 XMTs it would just mean, under the hood, that he holds 100 Steem ...
So under the hood, it all comes back to steem. This would make total sense to me from the things I've read and heard.

Most important thing, hope all is well with your Dad! In Wizard of Oz they said Lions and Tigers and Bears Oh My, well for me it's Doctors and Tests and Hospitals Oh My! If they want you to come back in for anything it's scary.
Sounds like you would enjoy a Killing Satan on Sunday community....lol. But seriously this was a great overview of some of the potential of SMT without the technical jargon. It actually gave me a couple ideas that might be able to be done once SMT for targeted communities or blogs.

More intuitive post indexation and communities will make a huge difference to this platform. For now is not very intuitive to find the content and the creators you are interested in. The tags are too broad, and the more specific ones don't get the attention they need.

You are right, bro. If signing up is bit more simplified and no waiting period for approval is involved, we can be sure of more new accounts, even now. Personally, there people I helped sign up but have not been approved for a month now. They got discouraged.

i am still confused about SMT, hope soon I will get hold of things. Yes the signup process is too much to bear now, but I think their main intention is to prevent fake accounts.

The price seems destined to go up. Many early participants will make fortunes if they are willing to lose their power. With no end in sight, how tempting will higher prices be? I will find it hard to sell.

problem with easy signups - more spammer, we havent got moderators, so it will be harder and harder if it will be too easy in future. We can change model to fast registration u need to buy 1 steem ( and it will be like instant account) then ye it can be.

Quite the contrary, I believe. Yes, HF20 will make changes to the sign up process. But it will try to curb creating too many sock-puppet accounts. I think they will reduce the delegated sp each new user gets. There is no official word on this yet, just something I'd read.

Unfortunately, DTube still has some issues. I hope they get this ironed out soon. Trevor is a good companion. He's old, at least in his late 70's in equivalent human age. So, yes, give the poor dog a break. I, too, am still learning about STM. It's a lot for a newbie to take in.
