We at Utopian would like to keep you updated and aware of our progress in improving and developing Utopian for you. In the regular Utopian Weekly posts on Fridays we’re happy to share all the latest Utopian news and updates.
In This Post:
- Utopian Signup Module
- Development updates
- Utopy
- Internal Guidelines
- Welcoming New Moderators
- What's next
Utopian Signup Module
One of our most awaited releases and major achievements as a growing company on the Steem blockchain is the Utopian Signup Module we launched this week. With the Utopian Signup Module, anyone with a GitHub account can create an instant and FREE account on the Steem blockchain.
We’re currently running the service on a test network to ensure it is secure, free of bugs and abuse-proof before taking it live. We look forward to using this module to bring more Open Source developers to Steem and rewarding even more contributions to inspiring projects.
Automation
In order to simplify and scale our processes, we have integrated a number of new automation systems to allow the team to properly verify, review and reward contributions.
Utopian Bot
Built in Python, the Utopian bot spots contributions already reviewed by our moderators, and sorts them by the highest score based on the review results generated on https://review.utopian.io
Utopian Tips
Aiming to incentivise and reward insightful quality post comments from our moderators and community members, we have built a tipping bot. These comments will be manually selected by Utopian Community Managers and will receive a significant 1% upvote from the bot.
We hope this will inspire you to share your valuable insights with Utopian contributors.
Utopian Unvote
To mitigate moderation mistakes and wrongly scored and voted contributions, the unvote bot spots contributions that should be unvoted and unvotes them.
Review Transparency
Our Moderators have been provided with a predefined comment footer containing a link to the review metrics used by our Moderators when scoring a contribution. The contributors can use this information to improve the quality of their work.
Utopy
We’ve received multiple contributions to our task request to create Utopy, our Discord presence and mascot. It was no easy choice, but here’s our winner - this adorable design by @podanrj.
The official launch of Utopy on Discord is planned for tomorrow (Saturday) at 6PM (GMT +3) and you are all very welcome to meet him for the very first time.
Internal Guidelines
To ensure all communications between our team and community are professional and cohesive with the company views, we’ve released an internal Team Handbook. In addition to a list of tools and resources for moderators and community managers, the handbook includes standards for replying to contributor tickets, leaving insightful comments and providing feedback to other community members.
Sneak peek
We hope that these guidelines will help streamline and unify the communication between the team and community across all channels.
Welcome Our New Moderators!
Growing demand for additional moderator to the Development and Bug Hunting categories led us to add three new moderators to our team. Say hi!
@emrebeyler - an active and well-known developer in the Steem community.
@gregory - an amazing developer that works, among others, on the development of Busy.org.
@achiron - an experienced QA expert.
What’s next?
We’re cooking up a lot of interesting things for you:
- Significant improvements to the Utopian Signup Module (recaptcha verification, IP filtering and a DB of virtual phone numbers)
- Improvements and extension of Utopian landing pages
- Howtos and in-depth tutorials on contributing to Utopian
- Optimized moderation process, switching from rules to submission guidelines
- People of Utopian Interview Series
- Open Source Radio Show on MSPWaves

Yes, his was of great work. His contribution also just shows that previous works don't go to waste. It just waits for that perfect timing (without giving up) until everything comes into place. And that's what I think happened to his contribution.
He just continued doing what he does best... And when the right opportunity and inspiration came... Magic!
