    A large portion of my time lately is spent working with Steem Engine, actively developing the behemoth of a project that is Cryptotoken Converter - a fully open source cryptocurrency gateway, faciliating deposits/withdrawals and conversions between a multitude of coins.

    I did make a post about this just 2 months ago, covering a lot of the work I've been doing behind the scenes https://steemit.com/witness-category/@someguy123/witness-update-primary-witness-now-in-sweden-steemengine-development

    Thanks to the work of myself, @yabapmatt, @harpagon, @aggroed and several others, it's now possible to send foreign cryptos such as Bitcoin and Litecoin to anyone on the STEEM network - transaction fee free and in seconds, as well as exchange them on the SteemEngine DEX with zero trading fees.

    I've also been experimenting with MIRA, and I've made updates to my Steem-in-a-box project to support it, allowing a wider audience to test it out and help discover any potential issues with the new updates. (announced it first in steem.chat #witness - post coming soon).

    There's also general maintenance of existing projects such as https://anon.steem.network (something which even you use, as anyone can find out by looking at the public incoming STEEM transfers), https://www.steem.center and https://value.steem.network

    A lot of Steem contributions take place at my company @privex :

    • We operate an RPC load balancer https://steemd.privex.io and wss://steemd.privex.io which is used by many services for handling their Steem transactions reliably
    • We run one of the few remaining RPC full nodes, direct.steemd.privex.io (currently replaying MIRA) which costs us upwards of $700+/mo just for the hardware.
    • We run two seeds for the network, one in Finland (steemseed-fin.privex.io) and one in Sweden. (our Finnish seed also serves as a lightweight public RPC node)
    • We mirror the Steem blockchain across 3 countries (Germany, Finland and Sweden) on our multi-homed fileserver http://files.privex.io via both HTTP and Rsync, which is used as the default block download source for Steem-in-a-box
    • We're help boost the Steem economy by being one of the few businesses that accepts STEEM/SBD directly, not via a third party processor. We even pay our staff primarily in STEEM/SBD.

    I'm well aware of the fact that I don't post updates to Steemit as much as some other witnesses do, but that doesn't negate the amount of work I do for the community and network.

    He's done some work on Steem-Engine, he runs Anon-steem, and Privex. Also Steem-in-a-Box (docker).

    Correct. He is the reason Steem Engine has pegged tokens.

    Provides a stupid simple steem-in-a-box setup so users like Jerry Banfield can run witness servers easily.

    Runs Privex and offers great deals so a huge percentage of witnesses are using the same hosting company.

    Doesn't participate much in steemit slack.
