STEEMINT: The STEEM Intelligence Journal (Vol. 1 Issue. 2)
Find below a list of the most useful posts of recent days - ones that will help you in your STEEM/STEEMIT journey.
eSteem Desktop v2 - sneak preview as promised!
Description: @good-karma is one of the most accomplished and capable developers in the STEEMiverse! In fact I would say he 'is' the most accomplished - as he was the first to have a fully featured mobile application in the market-place, running on i0S 'and' listed in the App Store - no aspect of which is easily done. This post gives a sneak peak of something that you will very likely be using in the not too distant future.
What is virtualgrowth's VIRGROW (and vGX)?
Description: @virtualgrowth is another very active contributor, someone who seems to be having quite a few things going on .. a very busy guy! In this post he describes a token he has created originally on the Bitshares platform, but which is also now available for trading with the new Viva Coin, on the Viva TradeQuik wallet/exchange platform. This post is a good intro into a few things that you can jump right into and explains what the value of doing so will be.
Make Money Trading Crypto While Being Offline
Description:@kingscrown is enjoying quite a bit of positive attention on STEEMIT, and it is clear why - he is a very productive poster, and in the realm of crypto-currencies, and crypto-trading, he is obviously very knowledgeable. In this post he introduces a piece of software which he uses to automate some of his trades - and on top of that he provides a (supposedly limited use) coupon for a 25% discount to those who wish to purchase this software. Check the post out and the many others by @kingscrown!
The Hero from BitShares Island... +5%
Description:This post is by Stan Larimer, the President of Cryptonomex - often described as the Godfather of Bitshares and Steemit! In this post Stan is proposing a new digital currency, The Hero, pegged to the U.S. Dollar + 5% APR. This idea, and a few other recently announced / launched projects, seem to be pointing at an increasing desire for crypto currencies that earn a return .. and perhaps moving us in the direction of guaranteed income. It is bloody fascinating!
The Ultimate Steem Guide!
Description: @teamsteem has put together an incredibly useful list of links to guides and howtos, for how to navigate the STEEMiverse - I found many cool things in the list that I had no idea existed. @teamsteem has been active on STEEMIT for a year, he maintains a witness, can be founding chatting with the folks on STEEMSpeak Voice Chat - and an all-round super-nice guy!
sbds_tests - Steem Blockchain Data Service Tests
Description: I have a feeling @inertia will be regularly featured, because he seems to come up with something very useful to the community, every other day! This time he both introduces us to the new data layer that will be used by STEEMIT, and then he exposes it via his ruby-based @radiator creation, in order to test its capability .. all in a very easy to read, well laid out post.
[VLOG] Dan Larimer interview with Alex Sterk from Blocktalk
Description: Dan Larimer, creator of our very own beloved STEEM blockchain, sat down recently with BlockTalk to discuss many subjects - Bitshares, STEEM, Ethereum and an upcoming project of Dan's, "EOS". Whenever this man speaks it is a good idea to stop and pay attention - if you wish to gain some view of the future, and a better understanding of what lays beneath the surface of our brave new world.
