I've invested all my time, energy, attention and own money with STEEM for 500 days. I trusted the people at the top to bring value to our entire community. Almost half way into my STEEM jouney I went all in with Dtube to bring value to our STEEM ecosystem and developed community for Dtube. I worked so hard to build strong core community with DtubeFamily777 and had a vision to make Dtube a killer dApp.
When I found out Steemit.inc fired 70% the staff, I had to pivot what I was doing to focused Building STEEM Twitter Movement with Seven77. I was so determined to bring value to each other in our global community. So many things happned within the short period of time last year made me hit rock bottom of in my entire life. I needed few months to really recover.
I don't really like to talk about my past. However I felt that I needed to share. One of the reason that I decided to become Hive Witnesss is to empower my fellow Hive owners to put themselves forward.
I truly beleive in my own ability to bring huge long term value to everyone in our community. I'm picking up huge momemtum with my Hive journey so far and I'm an entreprenuer at heart and I've real vision to BUILD HIVETwitter togther with my fellow HIVE owners. I strongly feel like I'm onto something really big.
So far with my startup experienmnt I hosted 4 Hive Meetups and 50 Hive dates and pivoted towards HIVE5 Twitter challenge to build a solid foundation for our Hive Twitter movement. I've many ideas to turn HiveTwitter into a startup. Because I watered so many people's Steem journey, most of the good people rememebr me.
If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets
My next step is raise seed funding from Angel Investors and Venture capitalist or Partner with someone with deep pockets to bring value to our Hive ecosystem.
In the absence of capital, you're irrelevant; with capital, you're powerful
Becoming a Witness was never was my itention but my passion for our community make me think Why Fucking not ?
More details are coming soon.
Thank you for reading.

The road taken may be uncertain and change often, but the goal remains the same. Our ability to adapt, is what keeps us alive (in more ways than one), so sometimes pivoting is the best choice to make.
With the dedication I see you putting into building and supporting our community, you've got my vote. :)
I truly appreciate your encouragement
Count another vote from me to your ambition of becoming a Witness.
You have been the one who has ignited that spark on Twitter for Hive and you will have the support from all of us as we know that you means business for Hive and Hive Hustlers.
Good Luck @nathanmars :)
Thanks a million my man
Thanks for all the energy you put into building this blockchain!
This is our HIVE
I run a witness in the past but sync was taking too long and even with MIRA it took quite a time. I might try to run another but only if HF24 delivers promised improvements and low cost run of a witness node.

If you believe in yourself to bring value bring a Witness then we can together make huge difference.
More witnesses is better and more liquid democracy is better. I really want my fellow $HIVE owners to get familiarise with voting regularly for Witnesses and DHF proposals
You have my full support. Thank you for all you have been doing for the hive Community
I appreciate it bro

What is Leo Finance precisely ?
https://leofinance.io/ is a tribe/community of hive blockchain. it has it own frontend for hive blockchain. it only show posts that are connected to the leo community. it is mostly crypto/finance topics. it has it's own token, leo, on hive-engine, and they are doing really good job with all of it.
Someone closer to the project will probably explain it much better :D
Thank u

Together We Rise
I'll gladly give you my witness vote. You're really doing great for the Hive blockchain. Soar!
Posted Using LeoFinance
Thank you my man
Together We rise
The cost is pretty significant, but if that doesn't stop you I don't know anybody that can 'move up the ladder' better than you.
I only vote for a few witnesses because I believe that voting for 30 is part of the problem, but I'll be happy to support you from the start.
Gopher it!
My intentions is to bring more value to our ecosystem.
I truly appreciate your Trust
I believe you. You have my vote.
Thank you my man 👨
You're going to be an awesome witness!
My proxy is still set to @theycallmedan (based on your advice actually). I'm pretty sure that he will be voting for you as well.

Thank you my man
One of the main reasons why I decided to be a witness is to inspire others to become one and encourage voting witnesses by ourselves and checking our votes more frequently.
We need more diversity in our governance
Very valid point. I will make some times next week to manually vote for witnesses.
