Steemit Winter Update: 2017 reflection, our Vision Statement and Mission, and a look forward
In this post, we want to bring you up to speed on what is happening inside Steemit, as well as give you our perspective on the successes (and failures) of the past year, let you know what we see as our mission going forward, and provide some insight into what we have planned.
Steemit’s Vision and Mission
Through our vision of empowering entrepreneurs to tokenize the internet, our primary roles in the Steem ecosystem are providing the community with software enhancements to the Steem blockchain, modular framework applications made up of components that can be leveraged by application developers and inspiration through these platforms to entrepreneurial end-users. We believe we must build in ways that create as many opportunities — and catalyze as many amazing Steem-based entrepreneurs and communities — as possible.
With more than a dozen self-sustaining user-oriented applications (such as Busy.org, D.Tube and Uptopian.io) already integrated, Steem has more widely used applications than any other blockchain. There are more tools coming to spur adoption of Steem much faster, such as Steem’s Smart Media Tokens and Steemit’s Communities. Because of these developments, as well as the active Witnesses, community-oriented developers, and the platform’s track record - we believe there will be more than 100,000 entrepreneurs of meaningful standing building businesses on Steem within five years. Our goal is to deliver the tools and interest that crystallizes this future — one rich with opportunity for people to build their business on Steem.
2017 a year of growth
2017 was a year of growth: growth of the applications building on the Steem platform, boon of its currency STEEM, expansion of the Steem community, and development of the Steemit organization. It is exciting to see that the price of STEEM has risen by more than 5000% to over $4.00 since the $0.0691 low back in March. Steem has attracted hundreds of thousands of new members, many applications have seen 1000%+ growth, and our portion of this ecosystem, steemit.com, attracts millions of unique active visitors each month.
2017: What we did right
Scaling
In 2017 (and early 2018), we dedicated massive resources to scaling — more than we had anticipated. This took a significant amount of time away from feature development, but we feel it was time well spent, because it lays the foundation for us to grow the platform significantly larger, in a way that is economically scalable for exchanges and developers.
TONS of new applications
We have seen massive growth in the number of third-party applications built on top of the Steem blockchain that are now flourishing. This includes Busy, DLive, DMania, DSound, DTube, Utopian.io, Vessel, and many more! We are very excited to see the innovation coming from our developer community, and we are looking forward to seeing a lot of new applications in the coming year.
Free image hosting
Free image hosting and an easy to use interface was added to steemit.com, so that users can quickly upload their images directly into the posting editor as they are creating their content.
Delegated Steem Power
The blockchain rules were updated to allow users to delegate Steem Power to one another. This has allowed large stakeholders to share their influence with other members of the community, so that their stake can be used by others to benefit the platform. As a result, entirely new businesses have been created that provide new opportunities for users to bootstrap their presence on Steem.
Multiple Beneficiaries
The change to allow multiple beneficiaries for a post/comment has provided a means for application developers to build on top of Steem in a way that provides a use-based revenue stream. This will be an essential feature going forward, as it will allow many new businesses to form on Steem.
Linear rewards
The change to a linear reward distribution has ensured that the impact of each user’s vote on the rewards pool is directly proportional to their Steem Power (i.e. their stake in the platform). Users now feel more empowered, and they can see the direct correlation between the amount of Steem Power they have and the strength of their vote.
Condenser improvements
Many improvements made to the condenser/steemit.com website make it more attractive and improve the user experience. This includes a new design, multi-language support, night mode, and many other enhancements. We have many more improvements in the works (such as notifications 2.0), but a lot of the larger improvements are on hold until after Hivemind and other back-end services are ready to support them. We are happy with the progress so far, but many more changes are planned for 2018.
Steem Developer Portal
The launch of the Steem Developer Portal has laid the foundation for a centralized set of documentation, tutorials, and onboarding materials for the Steem API and core client libraries. The portal will continue to evolve in 2018 (with better everything), as we expect this to be a critical tool for fulfilling our commitment to a quality development experience.
Steem software open source
We deeply value freedom and innovation, which is why we changed the Steem license to the MIT open-source license. This gives developers and entrepreneurs in the community the freedom to use the software we create for whatever they want, which we believe will maximize innovation and growth for the platform and ecosystem.
Steem Park
History was made on July 16, 2017, when the first public work exclusively funded by cryptocurrency was erected in the Herbert von King Park in Brooklyn, New York.
Improving signups
We have made multiple updates to our sign-up process, which will improve the onboarding experience for new users while preventing abuse by bad actors. There have been a few bumps, but the trend is strongly upward for security and overall experience. Signup and login continue to be a focus, and we are actively working on further improvements.
Updated whitepaper and bluepaper
A new whitepaper was released, which is now in sync with the current version of the blockchain. We also released a new “bluepaper” designed to be a helpful guide to our protocol that is comprehensible to the widest range of people.
Updated steem.io
The steem.io website is one of the main sources of information for the Steem blockchain and STEEM currency. This was updated to ensure it presented accurate and up-to-date information. It will continue to evolve in 2018.
SteemFest2
SteemFest2 was amazing! It was great to connect with so many great Steemians in person and discuss our plans and vision. We got a lot of valuable feedback from community members and are integrating many of the suggestions we received. The ability for so many individuals from across the world to come together and experience an event like this is something that makes Steem unique across the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
Expanded exchange listings
We are working hard to get STEEM listed on as many exchanges as possible. One example: STEEM was recently added to the fastest-growing cryptocurrency exchange, Binance.com.
Team restructure / hiring
We have spent a lot of time building an all-star team. As many of you know from working in organizations of your own, recruiting A+ people is not an easy process, and progress often has to slow before it can speed up again. We are privileged as an organization to afford A+ talent, and culturally we’ve never been more energetic and creative since setting our bar so high. We are thrilled to highlight several of our new talented team members in the “Steemit Team” section below.
Announcement of SMTs
SMTs are going to be one of the main tools that will allow entrepreneurs to interface with the Steem blockchain in a way that provides them with economic incentives for building their applications and improving the platform. SMTs will also provide a mechanism for communities to distribute token rewards to their members, with influence that is proportional to the distribution of their SMT.
2017: What we didn’t do right
Roadmap
We have not delivered on several of the items we included in our 2017 Roadmap. We were a young start-up that failed to know what we didn’t know. Growth of Steem surprised even us, and scaling required more resources than we had anticipated.
After gathering feedback from developers and entrepreneurs, we also made the difficult decision to switch focus mid-year to new projects like SMTs, which, while not in the roadmap, we are convinced will increase the value of the Steem blockchain to entrepreneurs by orders of magnitude.
We apologize for falling short of our stated objectives, but we believe our decisions will greatly enhance the success of our vision in the years to come.
Mobile
We did a lot of work on a mobile application, but it just isn’t where we want it to be. We want to put out the best blockchain-based, component-oriented, modularly tooled products in the world. After a year in operation, steemit.com and the other amazing Steem-based applications like D.Tube, Utopian.io, DLive, etc. are the only blockchain-based applications that ordinary people use. Right now, our mobile application just is not up to snuff. We’re not abandoning it, but we are not going to release it until we are satisfied that it meets our quality standards. It may take us some time to get this right and to ensure that, ultimately, the project is a success.
Communication
We have not done a good job of keeping the community informed of our work. We apologize for this. We know we need to improve on this, and we will be making many changes to our communication strategy in 2018.
Steemit Team
Going into 2018, we are critically focused on bolstering our core competencies in ways that enable building a sustainable and scalable organization that empowers our projects and the Steem community of users, developers, and entrepreneurs. Much of this goal begins by bringing in great people at the top, and we have assembled a world-class management team. With this team we continue to recruit more talent across product, engineering, ops, and advocacy.
Today, we are happy to introduce Harry Schmidt (@goldibex), formerly the Director of Engineering at The Information, and VP of Engineering with Casetext, as our CTO. Harry has taken on full accountability and responsibility for building the greatest engineering force possible, already having dramatically improved our engineering organization’s agility and ability to ship with regularity and precision. With that, we’ve continued to build out the engineering organization in a completely distributed manner. Distributed engineering is an underrated strategy for building companies with long-term missions, and thus far it has allowed us to recruit All-Star engineering talent no matter where they live in the world.
We also have a new CFO, Randy Baker, an industry veteran with experience serving as a CFO for a private space exploration company that counted SpaceX as one of its customers, as well as experience running his own successful start-ups.
Pon Kattera (@pkattera) is our Head of Design and Interim Head of Product. Pon has been hard at work, taking the design of steemit.com to the next level. He is working closely with Harry to ensure that our releases are developed with agility and turn out as beautiful as they are secure. (Little-known fact: Pon also attended SteemFest #1.)
Many of you may know Andrew Levine (@andrarchy), who has served as our Community Liaison. We introduce him now as our Director of Content. We have given him the authority — and the mandate — to improve our communication with the community and develop an effective content publication strategy.
It is also our pleasure to introduce Christi White as our Head of People. Christi brings a depth of experience building technology companies, and we’re thrilled with the impact she is making on our organization as we continue to build our all-star team across product, engineering, ops, and advocacy.
Our Board of Directors is more involved than ever. The Board comprises Gregory Wexler, a successful serial entrepreneur lending expertise gained from years spent in the industry; Ben (@theoretical), software architect of Steem and chief software architect of the Smart Media Tokens protocol, whose wisdom and insights are invaluable; Chris Padovano of Decentralized Legal, a pioneering legal expert in the blockchain world; and there’s me — Ned Scott, CEO of Steemit — privileged to work with such a diverse group of talents.
We have also hired several new blockchain developers, front-end developers to work on the condenser (steemit.com) website, as well as other static sites like steem.io and developers.steem.io, and back-end developers to work on our tools such as Jussi, Hivemind, and Steem Blockchain Data Services (SBDS). In addition, we are in the process of building out our content and advocacy teams.
Finally, we've developed new positions such as Developer Advocate, and have begun the process of creating an independent non-profit organization to support even more positions dedicated to supporting developers and entrepreneurs leveraging Steem and Smart Media Tokens.
What’s Coming in 2018
Right now, our top priorities are blockchain scalability (AppBase), Communities (Hivemind), effortless onboarding (sign up + Hardfork 20), and Smart Media Tokens (SMTs). So much progress has already been made, and we are working around the clock to deliver them as soon as we can.
We still can’t give a precise completion date because we recently reorganized our entire development process around agile methodology. The changes we’ve made will enable us to forecast more accurately how long it takes us to launch new features, but only after we’ve used the process for enough time.
Last year one of the mistakes we made was being far too precise in our roadmap. Priorities change, and timelines for developing software when dealing with disruptive technology is often difficult to predict. Going forward we will not be giving specific dates for changes that are not yet completed - to give ourselves the flexibility to shift priorities if necessary, and to take the time needed to deliver a quality product. We will do our best to keep you informed of our plans and priorities, so you know what to expect.
We know what big features Steemians want: communities, spam management, modular application components for simple and fast development, a great sign-up flow, Smart Media Tokens... and they want it yesterday. That’s where we’re focusing our attention. We have many other exciting projects planned too, and are reviewing all the suggestions made by the community for #roadmap2018. We look forward to updating you as these projects unfold.
Thank you so much for sticking with us through this volatile year. Steemit is nothing without you and the developers and entrepreneurs building Steem apps. We believe 2018 is going to be a benchmark year for Steem, and we are glad to have you with us on this wild ride

"The changes we’ve made will enable us to forecast more accurately how long it takes us to launch new features, but only after we’ve used the process for enough time."
This some fancy talk for ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Haha, all software developers know how difficult it is to promise a timeline for a complex project but everyone doesn't have the liberty to say this.
But yes, if taking more time delivers a better product and setting artificial deadlines results in something nobody likes, then all power to TIME-TAKERS!!!
Exactly, @svkrulze . With projects like this, "how long is a piece of string?" is apt
Buen día Sr. Te invito a leer mi articulo publicado el día de ayer sobre la criptomoneda venezolana El Petro Dale Click Aqi!
I agree @zacharius the changes have helped us I am a high-schooler who has gotten more of my fellow high-schoolers to see it is smarter was to make money and one listened and he loves steemit now more than YouTube. So thanks @ned for revolutionizing steemit and making it better. Also thanks for introducing SMT tokens if I can I will buy some.
Put up a photo of @ned, get a @ned upvote.
It's in the whitepaper. It's a Proof Of Ego blockchain.
thanks a million to @ned
yes right zacharius
This comment has received a 31.35 % upvote from @fredrikaa thanks to: @jassi.
Hear hear. Well emoted! 30+ years of being in the tech industry and software dev - currently a VP of Tech for an enterprise SaaS firm and steem witness #78, and this single comment so well deservedly pinned by @dan is more apt, accurate, and voluminous in it's message than the entire mind numbing blur of buzz word bingo randomizer strings you posted it beneath.
The whole post is just some fancy talk for ¯(ツ)/¯
If it would have been talked I'd say: lots of warm air
but because it's written I rather say lots of randomly arranged letters
I am very glad you are talking about this because I believe your voice is likely to be heard. I know others have talked about this in the past, but I don't see this being taken as seriously as I would like it to be.
This is one of the best communications I have seen by any blockchain related organisation.
Though that's some bottom barrel bar. But still, any progress is good.
Thanks @ned for the update! This was really needed.
I think though that you could do a more detailed update like @dan does it for EOS regarding SMTs, this stuff is rally a game changer and warrants a more detailed status report...
Thank you so much for all your efforts! I think Steem will succeed!
Awesome can't wait for these features
Might I interest you in one of our fine time machines? xD
Linear reward
I could be mistaken but here are my concerns.
The current system inevitably advantage those who engage in 100% self-upvote while under the n^2 reward curve those who hold the most SP under 1 account are the one advantaged.
Unless I'm missing something, this inevitably advantage those who engage in self upvote all the time and sooner or later these people will reap the greatest reward and end up being the majority "shareholders".
No policing of such behavior is currently possible because the policing is all at the cost of the "police". Policing becomes more difficult over time while the "abuse" remains risk free and doesn't increase in difficulty.
One other advantage of non linear reward is that it rewards those who concentrate their votes and thus incentivize the very best authors and posts.
The very best information is what really matters. Nobody wants the second best.
Also n^2 reward curve favors larger accounts and thus create some disincentives for selling delegation and votes.
The unfair advantage of n^2 is the same if the SP is in a person’s one or several accounts all voting for the same content.
N^2 failed at highlighting content quality content too. It’s biased to the same group at the top, who aren’t or don’t want to be editors/curators of the trending page.
If you’re looking for ways of achieving better results in token-oriented sorting of content, then consider SMT Oracles (there’s a paper coming out soon and it’s mentioned in my blog) and Communities (see the spec and the Hivemind spec linked in OP).
True, but at least such a whale would have to spread his Steem power on many different accounts, so that every single account had less steem power - also the ones executing the last upvotes in the row. Apart from that he would have to own quite some accounts to profit from the n^2 effect ...
I still think either a sigmoid reward curve or a curve which starts as n^2 and ends linear are at least worth to think about ...
Thank you for your answer. I sincerely appreciate it. I also very much appreciate Steemit's overall performance and work. Short comings an challenges are and integral part of any projects.
Just to be clear, I know we are both trying to do our best. We both have a lot invested in its success.
It's bias toward those who have the most to lose or gain from the success of Steem while linear is bias toward those who self upvote the most at the expense of everyone else.
The original whitepaper states:
The reason why Steem was designed with nonlinear reward can be read in the whitepaper under the quote I just mentioned. Why nonlinear is better for content quality is also stated.
When self vote is the most profitable strategy, voting for quality content is always at the expense of the voters.
Original Whitepaper
Yes I also wrote in the paper it “is an experiment...”, and we have learned much since then.
I understand. We'll see how it goes from here.
Hi @ned , thanks for bringing this answer and making a mention about SMT Oracles. I will search on this to know more about it.
Regards, @gold84

Upvoted for rationality.
I second @clayboyn
💪🏼🙌🏼💯
Hi @teamsteem ! I hope we can finally get a way to make rewards as fair as possible, so that the way they are improved, helps for the entire ecosystem grow, and makes the value of the blockchain go up! There should be a way were the incentives are no longer self votes, but for the discovery of great content, as you do, every day!
Regards, @gold84
you are an amazing curator @teamsteem ! I believe in karma!
Upvoted for self-realization!
This is actually one of the best communications I have seen from SteemIt, Inc.
Looking forward to the rest 2018 and excited to hear you are adding some new people and skill sets to the team!
I really want to acknowledge that startups do need the flexibility to change the focus and switch directions. The key to getting buy-in from investors is communication.
Very professional indeed. I am glad they kept up with scaling as we cannot afford a mis-step at this juncture. DTube, DSound, DMania and Steepshot - the applications are amazing. I am looking into IPFS technology and would gladly support servers to keep it functioning fluidly.
Yea, there’s so much opportunity in so many places we can’t afford for the team not to grow!
This is one of the best communications I have seen by any blockchain related organisation.
Though that's some bottom barrel bar. But still, any progress is good.
fun comment, thanks
No need to exaggerate. These messages very much and they are all monotonous. Do not praise yourself - no one will praise... Need more critics!!!!!!!!
STEEMIT is a COMpany with COMmynication inside))
I saw some tokens with zero communication with their community, and you know what? They fall, it's scam or developmen is in hell. STEEM will rock. It's only matter of time and betterment.
What @ned and team think about scammers here? People who rape reward pool. They use delegation for profit.
5 - 12 posts with nonsense per day with 300$ per post.
MAYBE BAN THEM?
You realize no one can ban anyone from a block chain right?
You realize steemit.com and steemit, inc are just a company ON the block chain at this point just like all the other ones. Steemit is not the steem block chain and can't "ban" anything in that way.
You also realize that unless given delegation for free, leasing it is no way to "profit" at all, you will generally "lose" money.

no banning! Steemit is as close to pure anarchy as ive ever seen. It is amazing to witness it working. If you start banning people you end up basically starting down the wrong path.. a very contentious one! I believe in consensus and the organic way of things finding their balance.. Despite the issues you mention, this IS working incredibly well!
Best to focus on your rewards and posts is my advice!
yes a ban would require a hardfork, that requires witness votes, it would have to be snuck in, I doubt it would ever happen, even in extreme cases, and soon with will have communities which will allow you to block someone from flagging in your own subreddit syle 'commmuity" or so ivebeen lead to believe :D I hav no idea howthis would actually work :D
Don't worry about not understanding how the communities will work, Ack, Neither does steemit.
Wow so detailed, i use to be skid steemit might fold but with this communication, am stronger.
I look forward to building stronger bonds on steemit.
2018!!! Yay? Its steem to the moon!
I'm just so happy for being here on steemit, with this I know steemit and the steemians has a bright future, thahanks @ned for the update
I really enjoyed the post! this information is extremely valuable and a great read. I'm excited for the future of steam!

Hey noob! Some people might think this is spam. Learn how to make great comments to get more positive attention and a better reputation.
That's the kind of post I wouldn't mind seeing get aggrandized by @misterdelegation.
is there really a point to this comment?
Should be upvoted by steemit so it stay visible for longer. That's what it mean.
You have missed the post most probably, a pearl of the last month.
It means he wouldn't mind if this post gets that $2000 upvote, instead of the comment on @dan's post about aggrandizement--a joke which I'm starting to believe will never get hold.
Oh it's caught hold among basically anyone who has been here more than 5 minutes lol.
Just for the upvote of course
Hehe, I for one get your sense of humor Transisto. It's not for everyone, but neither is a Proof of Brain block chain, eh bud? :D
I think you continue to ignore the 1000 pound gorilla in the room, the rampant abuse on steem. You don't mention it, you don't talk of solutions to it. Why? Without addressing this issue, the rest seems like "self-aggrandisement" at worse, theatre at best. The incentives are so bad currently that Steem has begun to resemble a power centralisation scheme. It certainly isn't about quality posts and engagement. How can you simply ignore this and why aren't you doing anything about it?
I've only seen you around in passing over the last year, but today, reading this page, I have become quite enamored of your positions which mirror my own in intent, message and tone.

and other stuff.
Hi sircork, I really appreciate your words of encouragement. I've seen some of your engagement in passing too and I will certainly pay more attention from now on. I would like to learn more about your YouAreHope initiative for instance!
All the best and thanks :)
I am very excited to see things are growing. I have groups of excited potentials waiting to get on board. I have been asking for patience. Venezuela and Paraguay are growing whole towns at a time.
Developments: Drag and drop images to comments was huge for me. The new logo is catching on too. Keep up the good work!
I was just thinking that someone should do a video on this... Awesome! You should consider making a step by step vlog on this for people to be able to follow along with the steps as well as additional ideas you might have. I wish people would think #Steemit through on something you mentioned in this video. We should all help each other be successful. Doing this not only reciprocates the support, but everyone becomes successful together. And even further, #Steemit then becomes more popular.
I am a large investor and work tirelessly to bring more in. When all my steem was in one account, I was in the top 70 on steemwhales. Unfortunately, I don't do interviews or anything on-screen since Charlie Shrem when to jail over trumped up charges. I am however able to help in the background.
There is much wisdom in that.
I would like to find out more about "Chris Padovano of Decentralized Legal, a pioneering legal expert in the blockchain world" and what may be changing / improving / worsening in the legal world. My accountant pulled me out of the fire with the IRS and then quit me because he heard the word "Bitcoin" in conversation.
I live outside the USSA, but I had been a long time stocks and options trader. Then the Irational Removalofincome Scammers had disagreed with my totals. Turns out I was right and they were wrong. I paid zero!
United Soviet State of America?
Your the greatest man and I will follow you up and be on your side.
Why did you cash-out then? Also, what is your involvement with Paraguay and Venezuela, do you live in one of those? I am Uruguayan, living in Switzerland. Both friends and possible investors are turned off when they see the waiting time for onboarding, plus the no-app for mobiles.
A lot needs to be done if we want to kill FB and many other apps. I am trying to bring Venture Capital, but there is no professional Investor Pitch over here to use or adapt.
I cashed out of bitcoin when it got slow (2016), bought enough dash for a masternode when the coin was at $6 - never cashed out. I got into Steem at a very low price and never cashed out. I just spread my millions over many different keys - as stated above. Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
I am so far outside the system that I am not sure if I still live on planet earth. I am investing in the people of Venezuela, supplying crypto to those who are supplying Venezuelans with crypto. (there is no other cash there). I am trying to get them to start using Steem instead of bitcoin because for over a year and a half BTC has been worthless for sending cross borders or even across the table at a restaurant. Paraguay because I know people who moved there and they took Steemit with them.
Fakebook and Scruetube are killing themselves - we need only be ready to accept those the are alienating. I would love to see Switzerland. Uruguay I have seen years ago, but I hear it is very expensive to live there.
I am supporting some small minnows from Venezuela is not much what I can do, but I know a couple SBDs mean a whole week of food when steem is around 4-5 USD. Keep up the good work in that sense.
Well I went from the most expensive country in Latam to the most expensive worldwide, Switzerland! haha, fortunately enough I am really close to the Crypto Valley which helps me to be closer to many interesting projects!
I hope you liked Uruguay and drop me a line whenever you are in Switzerland, I would love to show you around Zurich.
I need to talk to you, are you familiar with the work @YouAreHOPE Foundation has been doing in Venezuela with steemitizens on the ground there? Please do look, this is NOT a waste of your time. I am a VP of Technology for an enterprise SaaS firm, comfortable interrupting billionaires like my former employer Phil Hagermann for lunch break discussions, so I would not dip to wasting your time if I did not think it was bring a valuable opportunity to you for your consideration, with regards to Venezuela and beyond. Including a new project as of yet discussed in public that you might be quite keen on from the look of your positions above.

Drag and drop images to posts and comments was a great development!
Doesn't everybody already just cut and paste images? I have never understood the image beef. You can literally ctrl-c / ctrl-v images from anywhere into a post or comment.
And it's been that way for at least the 9 months I've been here?
This puzzles me Doctor Pepper. Please enlighten me? Does my cut/paste easy button not work on macs or something?
winter is coming people!
Steemit has legitimately changed my life. I will be forever grateful.. I TELL EVERYONE. My world will never be the same. I mean this in the best way ever. I Have purpose. Thankyou @ned
This is the kind of stuff that motivates us to put in the long hours. Thank you for being a part of our community.
Hi @andrarchy ! And there are many people who feel like this in the platform. I just read about a person that is able to feed himself thanks to Steemit. How better can the Steem blockchain be?

Good thing about sleeping now is that is the time where the voting/bandwidth reloads :D
its 6 am... again....
lol
steem is new for me but i have to agree with you :)
maybe that is why i cant sleep :d
Steem for the win
