There was a Steem meetup last week in Austin, Texas.
Ned and two members (sneak and pkattera) of Steemit inc. came round to talk about the blockchain and answer questions.
It was filmed and worth a watch here.
What I liked about it was not only the vision they have for SMT's and how it will empower communities but I also liked to hear them talk about how they got involved with the Blockchain.
It reminded me of how I discovered the blockchain in July 2016, after it went to $4 out of nowhere for the first time.
I checked out Steemit and could not believe this was a blockchain. (Later I learned this was not true, it was even better, steemit was only an app build on top of the blockchain, meaning much more could be build on top of it.)
And after I went to Steemfest1 I was convinced this was real and I rolled with it.
Now, I find myself as a witness, with my dev group @blockbrothers creating apps and tools and I was asked to speak live only recently and Wednesday I have an interview with David Pakman.
My whole life has changed in just under two years. It's just nuts.
Ned said that in five years time he wants to see 100.000 entrepreneurs on the Steem blockchain.
What I learned so far from being on this blockchain is that this can be anybody.
There is still so much opportunity to come.
I talk about it more in my vlog
