This is now the third edition of Witness Weekly.
It is definitely proving an interesting project to learn more about the Steem witnesses.
There is much more going on among the witnesses than the community probably realises.
Hopefully Witness Weekly will begin to improve the communication and information flow so that the Steem community can better appreciate the work the witnesses do.
No major changes in the witness rankings this week, with just one new arrival on the block - @unbiasedwriter from Hungary.
If any witnesses have any information they would like to share feel free to contact me on Discord (Pennsif#9921) or leave a comment below.
The Current Top 20 Witnesses
There have been only a few minor movements among the top 20 witnesses this week.
@dlike and @future.witness traded places at #5 and #6.
@scissor.sisters, @hoasen, @matreshka and @maiyude shifted one or two places in the lower half.
The current top 20 witnesses for the Steem Blockchain on 21 May 2021 are :

There are a further 30 or so active backup witnesses mainly in the #20 - #45 slots.
All top 42 witnesses are running the current 0.23.1 version.
Most of the witnesses from #43 and below are 'former' witnesses that are running old witness versions (0.23.0 or 0.22.1) and have now moved to another blockchain.
Details of all the witnesses can be found in @steemchiller's Steemworld.org or on @symbionts's list at...
@steem.history also publishes a regular listing...
New Witnesses
The witness ranks this week have been joined by @unbiasedwriter.
@unbiasedwriter is from Hungary and has been on Steem since July 2018. He is a regular content creator, particularly in Project HOPE.
@unbiasedwriter hasn't laid out any specific plans as a witness yet but he is offering free ice-creams so he must be a n-ice guy 😊 ...
The other recent new witnesses @successgr.with and @xpilar.witness are currently at #33 and #35 respectively.

I hope people find this new Witness Weekly digest useful to learn what the Steem witnesses are doing.
It will take a while to track down all the witness information. My apologies to any witnesses who I have missed. Please comment below on anything I have missed or contact me on Discord (Pennsif#9921).
In the meantime do remember to vote for witnesses...
Thank you
