Hello Steemians,
Today we are sharing two videos from SteemFest2 featuring the CEO of Steemit, @ned.
The first video is his keynote in which he discusses:
- how Steem is ahead of the competition
- the many great apps built on Steem like Utopian.io and d.tube
- the growth of the platform
- the Steemit Team
- Smart Media Tokens
Ned’s SteemFest2 Keynote
The second video is Ned’s fireside chat with the journalist @andrewmcmillen (Andrew McMillen), author of the amazing article featured in Wired Magazine titled The Social Network Doling Out Millions in Ephemeral Money.
They talk about:
- how Ned first got involved in cryptocurrencies
- what elements of the technology drew him in
- his thoughts on bitcoin
- the religious elements around cryptocurrencies
- what motivated the creation of Steem and steemit.com
- the importance of encouraging dissenting opinions and challenging one’s own beliefs
- potential use cases for Smart Media Tokens
Great to have those videos extracted from whole stream :) Now we need to make them popular :)
Steemians, please repeat after me:
More upvotes on YouTube == better visibility :)

Can we get a response from Team Steemit regarding their stance on potentially changing the linear rewards curve to something more effective (hybrid between linear and logarithmic?) as well as modifying the curation ratio and/or allowing curation percentage to be selected by users?
The general consensus of the community seems to be that the current situation is less than ideal with regards to rewards, including issues with self-voting, vote-bots, vote-selling, delegation, etc. Of course some feel there is not much issue, but could you please address this?
Many of us feel this is much more important than SMTs, communities, apps, etc. because they are fundamental issues that affect us on a daily basis as early adopters and firm believers in Steemit's potential. Hard fork 19 was a long time ago and it would be nice to get a report of Team Steemit's perspective on its successfulness.
Some of us are a bit concerned that there is a lack of "ordinary" perspective on Team Steemit, since it is mainly developers focusing on technology. Do you have regular dialogue with top witnesses and those who are moreso pure "users?" (using Steemit as content creators/ curators many hours per day.) It would be cool if there was a convenient forum for this.
Anyway, I have to say props on the improved communication as of late. These more frequent @steemitblog and @steemitdev updates are surely heartening. Much gratitude for your constant hard work and development!!!

Okay, cool! No amazing new SPECIFIC bits of information in the interview, but this is my first full @ned interview to watch. So, it was good.
And again, I hope Steemit Inc has ....or Roeland has the ability to share some additional presentations in the upcoming days, weeks and (if it has to take so long) months!
....something more than teasers, but that can tease me to plan on attending Steemfest 2018 in Austin, TX!

It is exciting to see @ned so excited about all that is going on. We all know he has a vested interest in seeing this blockchain get absolutely huge. Personally, I am super bullish on steem and look forward to a great 2018. We should cross 1 million people with some of the newer apps that are just emerging.
This blockchain is going to be huge.

Ned needs to start delegating his SP in quantities of 5k to community engagers like I've been doing. Delegating more than that (e.g. 500K) is just too damn much for an individual.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

That makes a ton of sense. Instead of supporting one, spread it around to the many. The multiplication factor of 100 people with 5K versus 1 with 500K is incredible. 100 people will be upvoting all over the place....they would have 1000 votes at 100% power....
That is how things will grow.

Thank you very much @fulltimegeek.
You just make my job with the minnows that much easier since you doubled my voting power. I resolved in a post to try to "adopt" a couple of them and get them to 1000 SP as quickly as possible by giving their daily post 100% upvotes. Once to 1000 SP, they are to turn around and help other sub 1000 minnows.
Thanks again and know I will be spreading the votes around.

That's amazing @fulltimegeek. Thank you for being so altruistic and having a long term view of what will help Steemit as a collective become more successful. I completely agree that smaller delegations being spread out is more helpful than a few people receiving hundreds of thousands. After all, there are thousands of incredible individuals here that add a lot of value to the platform in their own unique way. What has excited me most about Steemit in the time I've been here is the ability to spread support around in a direct and convenient manner. I hope someday I'll be in the position to do as you are. Cheers!

I agree. @ned and @steemit could both do this. Maybe @steemit less, since they need it for use more frequently.
@fulltimegeek if I can get in line for delegation consideration. The majority of my participation is working on greeting new users and also monitoring, reporting and flagging clear cases of Spam and Scams. I am still very new, and I hope you will keep me in mind for later if my work is not sufficient yet to garner your support.
Thx

I've looked through your history and decided to also delegate 5k SP to you. Congrats. But, do try to up-vote more often b/c I see that you're voting power is full via SteemNow. It takes 2.4 hours to recharge after a 100% vote. So, please try to vote at least 10x a day.

In case you have heard of @ocd, we are currently creating a bot that will support all previously nominated authors of original content while removing potential abusers from the list. It's a non-profit bot where the delegatees receive 100% of the curation rewards in case you'd be interested to take a look at it once its up.

Even though I have no idea of why he decided to delegate tons of SP to a handful of Steemians, I guess he had a decent plan... However, he should definitely delegate in quantities instead.
Perhaps it was too time consuming trying to find multiple users or the lack of ideas. Delegating 500K also encourage users to either start their own vote-selling business or insane self-votes, and we've seen both.
I hope he'll do quantities in the future.

I would like to be able to filter content based on how long a post is and also some content that its posesses like vloggers or so Im not really into that or super small posts that are uninspiring like f.e. just a quote. That would add and also it's strange that discord holds so many community's of steemit, that I think the focus must be with the gathering aspect of people and creativity that is driving force of steem since it comes from the community... also I think the smartmediatokens can lead to all kinds of restrictions but may be smart for the block but users won't like it in the long run.. focus on the gathering also I've heard a lot of complaints about ballicking for posts, I even get it myself sometimes it's annoying.. if I block someone he shouldnt see my posts either.. if you ask me also fix the bot issue like bernie is doing.. and restrict abuse of the price pool or add a voting system like a poll for example to monitor the ideas and support for future directions.. to give some data and to understand yourself what going on better... and partner or call some people who have raised multiple company's that are based on userexperiences and learn from them ;) and it may be time to drop the ''earn money now'' invitation since it's not the most important part for people who are longer here,
