NOBLEWITNESS UPDATE - 15 Sept 2018
Another week down, another witness update from the @noblewitness team! Thank you to everyone voting for us. We will continue to earn your votes!
Server Status
We are proud to announce that @noblewitness is officially running Hardfork 20 on our server! The official swap to 20 is coming September 25th, so we are getting ourselves ahead of the official adoption. As of this post, our primary server is already swapped over, and we are upgrading our secondary server to HF20. Once HF20 is officially adopted on the 25th (and based on the witness participation, this looks extremely likely), we will be positioned to continue our witness service without any interruption.
We'd like to give a big shout out to @someguy123 for his incredibly quick update to his Steem-in-a-box docker build. Thanks to his diligence, we were able to upgrade to HF20 within his docker client, making upgrading a cinch. If you have a witness vote free, I strongly recommend voting for him.
Right now, we are ranked 68 (63 of active witnesses).
Current Projects
Steem.Agency - Steem has been the basis for a plethora of programs and apps. Unfortunately, there are many that are no longer supported. Sometimes the Steemian that developed the app decides to move on, or they don't have the funding to continue development. Well, @sircork has revived a number of tools through his website Steem.Agency. There are also a number of links to our witness and the initiatives we support, such as YouAreHOPE and Steemshelves.
Steemerica - We've got plans in motion for our very own major Steem conference here in the United States. There are a large number of amazing gatherings already (Steem Creatives comes to mind), but what we'd like to do is have one central event where everyone can come. Steem in the United States! We're still in the earliest stages of planning, but keep your eyes peeled for more updates as time goes on. Steemfiesta Peru - @sircork is going down to South America to represent the @noblewitness team in Peru. He’s peerless when it comes to marketing and branding, so we expect great things from him going down there. It’s also going to be a great opportunity for him to expand YouAreHope operations in that corner of the globe.
Steemfest Poland - It’s still a little ways away, but our tried and true @gmuxx is going to be representing the witness team at Steemfest. With a little luck, @rhondak will be accompanying him on the trip as well.
Closing Thoughts
With any luck, yes I will be. It's a ton of money for someone who has none (all mine gets funneled into the rescue) but where there's a will, there's a way.
Always Be Branding :) See some of you in Peru next month, my steemy Friends!
I have just updated to HF20, the changes it brings are for the better and I think next year SMT's will make a big difference.
