This week's Noob Night cryptocast is filled with a ton of emotion over the 'great STEEM freeze' of 2018...The hardest contest in the history of STEEM...As well as....A blow hole??

Yup, we dive into quite an array of topics as we go over the past week on the blockchain and have a ton fo fun doing it...

  • Be sure to read the latest from Steemit Inc about the blockchain freeze last night!

  • Huge congrats to @mamasez for winning 'the hardest contest in the history of STEEM! She's got herself 100 STEEM Power for the entire month of July to use as she sees fit! And wow, thank you ALL for the support and engagement during the contest.....

We'll do it again very soon :)

cheers Jon,
I am visiting steemit from essentia.one it has steemit setup as an app and no need to log into steemit! brought me directly to your latest post as I follow you.
Seems this might be useful. I am not an expert so will not try to explain the operation of essntia but maybe you can check it out.
It may be useful.
cheers n beers

Interesting, I have never heard of that? Is it a STEEM app?

I don't know man, in retrospect, maybe I should've been a little bit worried about the blockchain being halted and the standard tweet of Steemit team. But right then I wasn't, not even a bit. :)

On the identifying the problem and fixing it, these guys and the few top witnesses involved (I would like to know who they were these witnesses!) were awesome! Not all witnesses reacted as well as they should've however.

What I wish for the future, maybe a status page to be shown on Steemit. And if they want to update on Twitter, that's fine, just send people to their Twitter account, but regular users shouldn't be left wondering and pray to potential mis- or disinformation, if they don't know where to look or don't even realize what's going on. It's a necessary step BEFORE mass adoption.

Yeah they did handle it as smoothly as possible. And I'm seeing a lot more communication with steemit inc and the platform via blogs and twitter...I'm chalking it up as growing pains and praying it doesn't happen again LOL
