The Old Dog Gets Excited: Two Pieces of Great News For Steemit in One Day!

in #steem6 years ago

Sure Steem has been in a bear trend for the last 10 months but so has all of Crypto! With all of the development going on here on the Steem blockchain I don't think that the down trend will last forever. 

Two Huge Pieces of Good News!


News Item Number One: 

As reported elsewhere Ned Scott of Steemit Inc. was recently interviewed by CNN and you can see it here!

During the interview he explains how Steemit has distributed more than $40,000,000 since 2016 without advertising or selling its users data. 



News Item Number Two: 

You may have seen many posts regarding a competition to get a free listing worth $30,000 on Netcoins. We won the competition as you can see from part of the e mail that they sent me regarding our victory! Read more here!

How much will this help the price and distribution of Steem? Time will tell and I'm looking forward to discovering the answer! Are you?




Bonus Good News Number Three:


As @exyle pointed out in his article here the fundamentals of Steem are great and development of communities is well under way. Sights like these below are flowering and prospering:



Hey man, this is just the tip of the iceberg. More is being developed by both Steemit Inc. and third party developers every day. This blockchain is being used like no other!


Thanks for following me on my travels and I look forward to sharing my adventures with you. 
 

 

Until next time,

Let's Succeed Together!

Sort:  

It is the fastest, one of the safest and more importantly with 0 transaction fees. If we want giants to enter the game (i.e Coca cola) you think they'll prefer BTC's chain with the high fees? And wait for their transaction to be confirmed in an hour, while they can transfer millions in seconds with no fees at all? Just saying...
And I know that we may have a long way to attract these giants...but dream big they say!

I see no reason why Steem won't climb to top 10 currencies soon enough.

That Netcoins contest might be nothing at all, just a contest "we" won, but it could well be a huge step towards steem's escalation! As you said time will tell for sure...

Have a nice day @kus-knee

Nice comment thanks!

Oh cool! I hadn't seen the CNN coverage so far, thanks for sharing it with us :-) Great to see that decentralized models are picked out more and more as a central theme in the media now.

Resteemed

You are right, this is great news and I am sure that this is another step towards the recognition of the Steem on the world stage. Of course, how much it will have a tangible result, time is shown, but I want to hope for the best! Thanks @kus-knee

It can’t hurt, right?

Excellent news to the community.
It is amazing to know $40,000,000 is distributed without ads and not sharing user data. Fb and other people should learn from this.

And it seems to me that the witch’s time span cannot last forever. The main thing is that people have enough patience.

It’s hard to be patient but necessary!

That's great to get some good news for a change!

Netcoins and another exchange pretty soon they said so yeah, pretty much! Looking at my bittrex wall, only Steem and Lisk are in greens.
Bull run soonest??

Sounds good!

Great post. i m with u. Everyday i m enjoing the great force from steem or steemit. it's just a question of time until we will raise up.

@kus-knee, Steemians got massive won & already announced today from Netcoins. We have lot of Dapps communities in steem blockchain. Sure steem will be great future and steemians being lucky.

I am optimistic!

Really.... Excellent news 📰 i like it my dear @kus-knee .love you 👉

i am looking forward and i am pretty curious about the future! i expected the win in the netcoins competition since i was one of the first voters, so i could anticipate the outcome day by day. The sad part is that this contest also showed that there is less activity in terms of people that everyone expected.

The CNN-Ned thing came out of nowhere! let's hope these news affect the price too and fast :P

I was surprised too that we didn’t win more easily but in a down market many people Stay away. They’ll be back!

for some reason i don't want people like that back :P

its a great two news for steem community

For sure!

WOW! Great news :-D

Amazing. Thanks to everyone who particpated in the voting process.

Also, STEEM to the moon! :)

@kus-knee, Yes, this is really exciting aspect for sure, and in my opinion now we can expect some exciting days ahead. And through Community Efforts and Community Strength we won the NETCOINS Voting Contest and we have to continue the same enthusiasm for future events. And yes, this is just an start and in coming future we will going to see many more DAPPS.

"As discussed before, I've posted and shared the link of my poetry piece on contest post for your Photography Contest."

Wishing you an great day and stay blessed. 🙂

Good to hear some good news after long. Hopefully these may push steem to moon and make people happy
