Steemit's Weekly Scoop
Fun filled first week of October. Lots of drama, fun and news occurring on the blockchain. Here's a starter to get you eating popcorn...

After the HF20 version 5 was implemented, SteemitBlog released an update. Sure, you can go the main post and read all about it.
But you should know by now that the news highlight is in the comments thread. The link above takes you directly to the main event.
Follow through the comments then you'll know why our beloved PopcornExpress got flagged. I believe Ned took the flag off after @llfarms comment, and several others who rallied towards saving our !popcorn.
Other highlights...
A new UI is in the works and Ned is building a new corporate structure.

Just sit back and enjoy a good read.
As always, thanks to @freebornangel for dropping the juicy tidbit about Ned's plans.

Things are starting to look up when you see the likes of @CoinGecko joining Steemit and powering up!
As a fellow Steemian, it's just right to support them. Sign up and use CoinGecko for all your alt coins or just to keep up with blockchain/cryptocurrency news. They have Android and iOS apps.
Most importantly a DiscordBot for all your crypto price questions! How awesome is that?
Last words... Support CoinGecko. Ditch CMC.

TheMarkyMark seems to find drama and fun all over the blockchain. And with this find he lost a witness vote.
This is not the first time an offer has been made on Jerry's #35 witness account. @BrianPhobos reached out to him through YT about a month ago.
Follow My Mute

Can't help following all the interesting Steemians and don't want to unfollow? Maybe muting a trusted account's mute list would help?
@Emrebeyler is a witness, creator of dpoll, lightsteem and this new muting proxy app.
Make sure you follow a trusted account's mute list or else...you'll drain some RCs.
Belated happy Steemitversary Emre!
And thanks to @berniesanders for sponsoring the app!
