The other day, Derin Cag was quoted mentioning Steemit.com as a way for users to earn "their fair share" on social media.
Specifically the quote was read as following:
"Although the mainstream social media platforms make billions each year from advertising revenues, they do not reward their users financially. Blockchain technology is transforming this by paying people their fair-share to post things, such as in the case of Steem.it. The next frontier in terms of Blockchain technology developments in mass communications will most likely be in decentralization."
Awesome! But, did you notice the typo?
I wish I could tell you that was my mistake with the typo of Steemit.com, but unfortunately that is exactly how it appeared in the Cointelegraph article.
Ugh! Facepalm!
Hopefully it was their typo and not wherever they pulled it from...
The entire article can be seen here:

Who is Derin Cag you might be wondering?
His full profiles can be seen here:
And here:
https://uk.linkedin.com/in/derincag
Basically...
He is the Founder and CEO at Richtopia. He is a huge proponent of blockchain technology and a decent sized influencer.
It's a bummer that they couldn't spell our name right, but any time someone is mentioning us in the media and thinking of us as the go to site for decentralized social media, it is a good thing.
Stay informed my friends!

@jrcornel - It is nice to see that influential personalities in blockchain world are taking notice of Steemit and making positive comments. I have seen Derin Cag;s opinion being respected not only in crypto world but also in normal financial world since Richtopia also features articles on Finance, arts and commodities too.
Thank you for this update. I am very happy to see Steemit becoming popular. I see Steemit as a survival tool for uplifting many lives in Africa as I mentioned in my latest blog based on Steemit SQL statistics. I hope more an more leading personalities in various fields become aware of Steemit and help us promote it. Thanks. Upvoted

I am so happy to finally find a social network that supports me and helps me to support others - it's a great feeling of balance.As you can see from my post summary for the last week (below), I haven't been hanging around- I've made lots of posts on important subjects, in fact this week the subjects are some of the most important on Earth thatmany still don't understand.. Plus, I created 2 new add-ons for Steemit - A full visual Rethemeand a way of making downvotes more visible.

Scaling the Blockchain
In the meantime, we have been working on some fundamental changes to help scale Steem.We currently run 7 steemd nodes in AWS to support steemit.com and will need to continue to run more and more to support our growth.The key problem is that Steemd is single threaded, however, we are well along in the process of making it multithreaded.
Imagine the steemd server program is a stove.Right now, it has a single burner and we need to make a meal.A few of the dishes are the peer to peer network, accepting and evaluating blocks, and responding to API requests for data clients like steemit.com.We are rapidly switching pots, pans, and skillets onto the single burner to make each component of the meal.The increased request volume from steemit.com is delaying the meal.
Thus far, we have been buying extra single burner stoves to distribute the load because this was how blockchains were originally designed.But this is not ideal because all of our stoves (our computers) actually have 8 burners (CPU cores) and we are only using 1 each.We have been making changes to the steemd server program so that we can use all 8 burners and not need as many stoves.That way we can put a skillet on one burner, a pot on another, pan on another, you get the idea.

Cointelegraph is extremely bad at editing. I wrote an article for them last year about Steem Fest and they "edited" it to where it didn't actually make sense. It is like they have Non-English speaking people doing the editing. It doesn't surprise me they missed the typo.
