Vlog 301: A theoretical second token (SMT) on Steemit.com combined with Oracles.

in life •  6 years ago  (edited)


Yesterday Ned dropped this in the SMT telegram channel.

It's a page from the SMT Oracle Whitepaper he is writing. (It's almost done).

It's super interesting and gives a good insight how oracles can function combined with an SMT.

I have been dying to try my green screen in the wild and I thought this might be a case were it's super useful.

In my video I give my take on this page.

Again I don't know if everything I say is 100% correct because the white-paper is not released yet but I do try.

Any feedback regarding the green screen is appreciated too.

Enjoy.

Love the new format, bro! Looking forward to getting more familiar with this new look. Nice explanation about orcales too. This blockchain is getting more and more impressive by the day. :)

Thanks man!

I love the green screen. How do you even make that happen? The oracles are a cool idea and I think it's wise. Are you saying that you would get rewards like normal from the steem rewards and possible gpt tokens at the same time?

@cflclosers a green screen is actually pretty easy! I use OBS to stream to DLive: I have a cheap green sheet behind me and it is a simple click to add a "chromakey" filter, a little adjusting of the dials and its good! Literally less than 5 minutes.

easy is relative lol. I have a lot to learn. Thanks for the response!

I actually just made a video about it, @cflcloser, check my blog to see how easy it is!

on my way to check it out @ericwilson

Yes, that's how I understood it.

Wow! It will be super cool. Can't wait for the GPT even though I have not earned enough Steem to cash out.

thanks

I actually like the Green REAL Plants in your yard Best Mark. @exyle I can see why the green screen was helpful to illustrate the SMT's.

Thanks for the feedback!

@exyle I am pretty excited about the changes that are coming. Though I don't understand it fully, I am commited. Thanks for a good explanation.

The green screen was good. I am listening with earbuds and kept hearing a deep bass thump....not sure.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll listen to the recording again.

Great! I hope this helps....but there is always a chance it was on my end haha. Thanks again for your videos and updates. Be well.

I find the green screen can be very useful to complement your words, but it's a bit more cold and impersonal than the classic format to my taste.

I agree with you. I will have to find the right balance. Thanks for the feedback.

Thats a nice background :) Looks like a nice project that will solve some issues here. At least bots and humans will be identified. It might help us to get rid of spammers as well.

When you are not white listed by the oracles you can't receive SMT rewards.

I prefer the plants in your back yard to the tropical view of the green screen @exyle. Maybe you could take a picture of your backyard or something more "you" and use that as a backdrop for you .pdfs?

Haha, that's an idea!

I've been thinking of getting a green screen for streaming.

Where did you get it?
I'm assuming some EU seller? I'd prefer not to order something so big from US.

No need! Green sheet and lighting... The settings in obs are super simple to complete.

Well I'd like something that could be attached to the ceiling, and pulled down when needed.
I don't actually have a wall behind me when I'm at the computer :-)

Ahhhhh... That would nice to have compared to my setup!

I got one from a local Dutch webshop.

I just made a video how to set it up in under 5 minutes, check out my blog :)

The green screen is cool but you are too small in it I think?

Thanks for the feedback, I'll play around with the size.

Well! the vlogs looking way more professional. A step ahead you move. Good Job :)

Thanks!

I loved the green screen 'lecture' from the professor. I'm really glad you're trying new things, gives us all encouragement to explore and improve our content.

Thanks for the feedback! It sure is fun. When are you starting your cooking show? :)

What a nice beach from where you are explaining the SMT Oracles with great vigour! The green screen is awesome. Thanks, exyle for sharing with us the sneak peek of the white paper and looking forward to the rest of the content soon. Upvoted!

Ha ha ha . That was awesome man! Great transition to the green screen! I've got to figure out how to do that for my videos!

Any SMT news is good news for me :) But this oracle stuff is fascinating. Correct me if I'm wrong but this would be huge for the hivemind stuff as well? Different community for each oracle and vice versa?

Or am I nowhere near understanding it LOL

I guess any community that wants to utilise an SMT can use oracle(s). I think (don't pin me down on it) that these oracles can even be chosen by the community (sort of like witnesses but on SMT level) and get part of the SMT reward pool for this incentivising them to do a good job.

Thanks for the feedback btw.

@jongolson - I just posted a video how to set it up under my blog :)

Super simple bro hmu on that green screen.

I like the green screen effect. You look positively tropical! LOL But I do think that you need to be a little bigger on the screen. You look a little tiny and I can't imagine you as being a short little person! lol

HAHA, thank you for the feedback! I'll make some adjustments.

Your green screen is wonderful, at-least now you can illustrate what you are talking about- I like it. Thank you on the heads-up about the good person token. I didn't know about this. Steemit is heading into a really bright future :)

Your green place is very interesting and excieting . I really like it , keep good work .

I resteem your post on my blog .

Your post is always different i follow your blog and upvote everytime , your post is so helpful . I always inspire of your post on my steem work . Thank you for sharing @exyle

Be careful Exyle, there is a coconut tree above your head!

This looks real interesting and exciting... Need to learn more about it....

I've been away for awhile I will have to look into this.

Thanks we can learn more from here.

Interesting update!
Think I saw something like that too
Saw something on "Good Person Token" mentioned

Ned is being a tease :)))

Quick Question:

Would this SMT allow for multi-platforms hardfork or incorporation of the steem blockchain or is it only peculiar to steemit and its users?

Thanks for this important information and announcement I can say. We are all waiting for the launch of SMTs. It’d be a game changer

Good on you!! For digging into something new!

Your update contant heps me to use green screen. You have discussed all about it thanks for your useful post.

interesting use case of it and getting it implemented on steemit that would be great thanks for sharing this update
