This is the second weekly update about my SNAX block producer, snaxtopia.
The chain is working ok and we had a few scoring rounds on Twitter. There are more than 150 users who joined (meaning they paired their Twitter account with the SNAX blockchain account) and the distributed rewards are almost to 140k SNAX (139,611 at the moment of writing).
The team efforts are focused at the moment towards the listing of SNAX on some exchanges and towards Steemit integration. If you do know any way (or persons) that can help us advance these negotiations, please leave a comment. SNAX is a fork of EOS, so any exchange that provides EOS pairs could, theoretically, implement SNAX easily.
There are already some advanced talks with Scatter, and, according to my information, there will be a new Scatter release in about 3-6 months which will allows users to integrate other chains into their wallet (the so-called "vanity keys" feature) and that will allow SNAX to be transparently used with Scatter.

If you do want to vote for my BP, you can do this by using SNAX-voter, a GUI interface forked from @greymass / @jesta excellent EOS - voter. My BP name, again, is snaxtopia, and remember you do need to stake your SNAX tokens in order to vote.

Wanna know when you're getting paid?

I know the feeling. That's why I created steem.supply, an easy to use and accurate tool for calculating your Steemit rewards |
I've been noting you use the term 'okay' when you describe how the snax blockchain is running, @dragosroua. Is it just me, or is there something keeping it from being 'well' or 'great'? It's just launched, so there's bound to be some kind of issues going on, is my guess. I'm just curious as to your choice of words as if there's anything behind the choice.
I can't remember if you mentioned this earlier or not, but will the token distribution likely to be still going on if we wait until Steemit integration is up and running, or is it only intended for those who pair Twitter accounts?

For a newly launched blockchain, the term "okay" with respect to functionality, can really be translated as "great". It's not an easy task to coordinate 21 BPs, located pretty much around the world, and, on top of that, to run the logic of the blockchain (the scoring rounds, for now), so "okay" is a really good state to be in.
As for the Steemit integration, the team set May as the deadline, so I expect them to deliver.

I am curious to know how you are combing your role at snax and on steemit. It must be tedious

Question1: Why should the Snax tokens have value ?
Question2: How hard is it to clone the EOS code and start a new blockchain? Should we look into it for corporate projects ?
Question3: What would be the reasons to go for a clone of EOS rather than a clone of Steem in your opinion?
Thanks in advance

Answer 1: Every token has as much value as people trust it to have.
Answer 2: In the initial EOS approach, the code was designed so everybody can use it and deploy a proprietary chain relatively easy (while keeping the DPoS mechanism and main characteristics unchanged). So I would say it's easier to clone EOS than to clone STEEM, if only for the abundance of documentation in the EOS ecosystem.
Answer 3: on top of what I said at point 2, above, I would say that EOS smart-contract platform is very solid, and that's something you can't find in the STEEM blockchain. There are standard system contracts for token, block producers, etc, that make EOS a more flexible choice.
Question 1: Why do you think I would have the answers to your first 3 questions? (just curious)

I don't think you'd have "the answers", but rather "your answers". And you did provide your answers, thank you very much.
