Visiting London Cryptocurrency Show & Promoting Dlive - Part II

Thumbnail

Arriving at the Novotel just before 10am, the place was already packed with people. Right by the entrance, I then noticed the huge but familiar “PROMO-STEEM” sign in blue, displayed vibrantly and bold. You definitely would not miss it, lol.

Our Steemit booth was situated toward the back of the hall. And I must say, it was “by far” the busiest booth within the whole show! Lots of visitors seemed very interested in learning more about “Steem” coin as well as find out more the ever-growing community of Steemians. It didn’t take long for me to spot some instantly recognizable faces in the crowd, mostly gathered around the booth and the stage area. It was awesome to be able to catch up with them again in addition to meeting some great new people too.

I was super impressed by how many Steemians actually turned up. It was like a mini Steemfest all over again! Even @roelandp manged to come which added to that feeling even more so. Geographical location didn’t seem to be as issue either as quite a number of Stemians made it to our shores to check out The London Cryptocurrency Show. For example, our good friend @exyle from Rotterdam, @techslut from Isreal and even the Appics team from Germany! What a turnout!

@promo-steem team did a fantastic job at the booth, giving well-informed and inspirational talks throughout the day. Dylan, a.k.a. @anarchotech, was a natural in terms of presenting a speech. So confident, professional and delivered with such enthused clarity. @allasyummyfood also shared her personal experience and success story on Steemit with everyone there. Loved every second of it!

The whole team of @utopian-io were also there, presented by @techslut. For those who don’t know already, Utopian connects with and incentivizes the global open source developmental community on the Steem blockchain. She shared some pretty nifty figures with us, such as Utopian has so far, distributed over 600,000 SBD to our community and over 35,000 Steem to investors. Supporting up and coming development initiatives is an integral part of Steem and it’s great to know these guys are providing such incredible support. Thank you so much for all your hard work and valuable efforts, team Utopian!

Steempress and eSteem also shared their updates with us. Two excellent Dapps for the Steem blockchain. As I mentioned, the Appics group also made their appearance at the last minute. Very commendable given their busy travel schedule. They are currently hosting a global campaign in promoting Steem’s first ever Smart Media Token, “Appics”. It was really cool to see an actual live demonstration of it using a test beta version. A very slick interface indeed, I must say! So, yes, I am quite excited about this Dapp coming out in Q3 this year.

As I mentioned in my previous post, one of my priorities in coming to the show is to promote our Dlive! I walked around the busy venue, showing off with my Dlive t-shirt, which definitely got some attention, lol! I got stopped by a few people and took the opportunity to explain what Dlive is and how it works within the Steem eco-system. I believe I got a number of people interested to check it out and give it a go for themselves!

I spoke to several Steemians who have already been using Dlive and was quite pleased to hear some really positive feedback from them. Some even asked me if I am part of Dlive team, haha!

At the end of the day, I was just exhausted plus I was flying to China for a 3 week business trip the following morning. So, I only had one after-party drink with our fellow Steemians at the bar before heading back home.

The London Cryptocurrency Show turned out to be an amazing event all round. Was so great to see all the interest garnered for our platform and the heights it is clearly reaching. Though it was pretty tired by the end, it was all totally worth it. I left the venue feeling extremely positive and happy in regards to the future prospects of the Steem blockchain and how much room this extraordinary platform still has to grow!

Thanks and see you all soon! :)


我们在上午10点前到达诺富特酒店,那里已经是人山人海了。入口处有一个很醒目的蓝色印有PROMO-STEEM标志的大横幅,你一定不过错过的,呵呵。

Steemit的展位就在大厅的后半部分,配置了两台屏幕并播放着世界各地用户们自发宣传Steemit的活动。整个摊位十分简洁明了,吸引了不少来访者。可以说它是整个会场里最热闹也最成功的一个展位。这全靠Steem宣传小组的辛勤努力!

许多Steemian也积极到场支持,包括不少从伦敦和英国各地过来的熟悉面孔,也有从更远的地方长途跋涉过来捧场的,比如说, 从荷兰来的@roelandp@exyle, 来自以色列的@techslut和来自德国的Appics 成员等等。大家叙叙旧,聊聊Steem区块链的发展和数字货币的走向。会场的气氛非常好,我感觉像是回到了去年底的SteemfestII聚会,呵呵!

Steem的宣传团队除了把展位布置得有声有色,其主要成员也在大会上发表了激动人心的演讲。Dylan (@anarchotech) 作为promo-steem的创始人之一,他的演说充满自信,既专业又有说服力!Alla (@allasyummyfood)也与我们分享了她在这个平台上的经历以及成功的故事,非常鼓舞人心!

@utopian-io 小组也来了,作为代表的@techslut 为大家介绍utopian并且与大家分享了一些让我印象深刻的数据。比如说,迄今为止,utopian 已经向社区发了超过60万SBD,为投资者提供了超过3万五千Steem。

Steempress和esteem也分别发表了演说以及他们各自发展项目的新动向。Appics 小组也在最后一刻赶上了演说。他们目前正在如火如荼地进行Appics 的推广活动,他们将会是Steem区块链上的首个智能媒体币。初次看到了他们的测试版本和功能,我觉得很不错,特别是他们的界面十分漂亮。Appics将会在今年秋季正式推出,我非常期待!

正如我在前一篇博客上提到,参加这次展会的另一个主要任务是推广Dlive!我穿着印有Dlive标志的T恤在会场里走了一整天,吸引了不少人的目光,甚至有人问我是不是Dlive的小组成员之一,呵呵。我尽自己能力向有兴趣的来访者介绍什么是Dlive并且它是如何操作的。很多人都不知道在Dlive上也可以上载事先录制的视频,他们都纷纷表示很愿意一试!另外让我很开心的是我听到不少Steemian对Dlive以及他们团队的好评!

在下午展会结束的时候,我已经有点儿筋疲力尽了,而且第二天一大早要坐飞机回中国出差三周,所以我只在酒吧和其他Steemian小聚了一会儿就回家了。这次伦敦的Cryptocurrency展会对于我来说,更像是Steemit的聚会,哈哈。离开会场的时候,我感觉很开心并对Steem区块链的发展前景充满了信心!
