Witness Update Report #6
Another week has passed with no issues from our server and no blocks missed. The RAM will be sufficient at least for the next three to nine months depending on the growth of the platform. We finally received some well awaited updates from Steemit, no, unfortunately not about the next Hardfork, but rather to address many concerns from witnesses regarding RAM usage, and the scalability of the platform. Please take the time the read the article for a more in depth explanation here. Therefore we will be doing some testing of faster hard drives over the weekend. This will in no way impact our server.
Please take a moment to read our Witness Proposal, and if you support the same fundamentals and vision as we do for the future of the Steemit community, please consider voting for us as witness here.
ADSactly Education :
We have decided that as part of our weekly Witness Report post, we will be choosing different technical topics to discuss.
Please feel free to request a topic in the comment section.
Smart Media Token
You can see Steemit as an open laboratory where we are all laboratory guinea pigs.
Steemit is the first step to a globally decentralized media world.
Also, one of the best parts of the upcoming Smart Media Token is that your data is now worthless; human interactions become the new monetization.
With the upcoming SMTs, every human interaction can be converted into a token, that can then be converted to FIAT money. And that is a big step to a more equal and decentralized free world!
Likes, shares, website comments, storys, cooperation programmes, guest-blogging, selfies, tutorials, chatting with friends, ideas, school projects, etc. are now worth something!
Now, imagine all the possibilities. A Facebook Like where your data is not being compromised or resold and where you can get a reward every time you like someone's else post. A newspaper that cannot be censored or influenced by politics because every article will be sealed on the blockchain. A secure chat app where you can send an encrypted message to your business contact. A charity program that received money from a single mouse click.
With SMT, your imagination is the limit!
ADSactly
We have had some awesome hangouts in our voice channel over on Discord in the last week. Favourite topics include crypto in general (obviously), crypto exchanges and philosophy. There is a hangout every Saturday at 14h00 and 20:00 UTC. We'd love to see you there!
We welcome you to join the society, meet and talk to people, make friends and establish fair relations with other ADSactly members. You will receive ADSactly community units just for showing up and taking part in our voice hangouts, for helping out with promotions, for helping new members feel welcomed, showing them around and helping them get familiar with the society, for finding new projects that might catch interest of other members. Sometimes even for being generally a good person willing to help others.
