Covered this Hangout

@peerplays

Jonathon starts off be letting us know that he has successfully played a game in GUI mode with Mike Maloney.

• Completeed GUI

• Has not been launched yet

• Playable real time blockchain game

• Expect test game next week!

The test game was created as a prototype the “prettiness” is not yet there, because of the focus on programming logic.

Working with designers on a separate wallet that will work with the actual game, which will also have new interface as well.

For test net purposes we will have a playable game!

Michael continues with telling us we will be able to log in and play, but would not REVEAL the game that we will be able to test.

”How do you plan on marketing poker if you don’t rake a fee?”

Michael states that WILL BE the marketing dynamic, and continues explaining that all of the competition is trying to have the lowest rake, and that is why they are taking NO RAKE because nobody else is currently doing this.

• First app focused on putting together “Sports betting exchange”

• Texas hold em won’t be fully complete until the first app is finished.

The idea from the business stand point is to get people on the platform, and figure out ways to attract people, and in the case of Poker is to get people to leave current poker site.

• Ability to charge lower rates with rake/commision with sports betting and out compete competition.

• On the business side the advantages of being available world wide.

• The idea behind no rake is to get poker players to come play on Peerplays.

NO RAKE only temporary (possibly the first year or less) to get enough players to reach critical mass.

The future fees will be determined by committee members.

Every fee that’s paid to the blockchain goes to operations right now it is not in the referral program, but is planned on being added in the future.

He finishes with telling us that there will be an announcement posted on www.peerplays.com/news

Johnnybitcoin

Johnny Bitcoin starts off talking about Bitshares.

He discusses BTSBots.com and how the app runs in the background. (BTSBots as an app)

He also urges to add liquidity to BitUSD (Dollar pegged cryptocoin) and explains that the more people that use it the cheaper the transactions will be.

BTSbots.com

• Oderbooks
• Buys & Sells
• See people who have orders in

(Ex: Certain people have bots that buy and sell)

Johnny briefly discusses SteemFest, how much potential STEEM has, and is growing.

With all the projects being based off of graphing, Bitshares has a lot of tech that can be ported over, and a lot of value has been produced by STEEM, Peerplays, and others

Recently they got a worker proposal with Vikram, who was one of the original developers of Graphene, and one of the core developers with cryptonomics.

@virtualgrowth of SteemBets & Steemvoter

Virtualgrowth starts off by letting us know he has started a guild for Steemprentice.

• Guild has over 40 members

• Over 1000 STEEM within a few days
• Steemprentice channel has 260 users

STEEM Power will go into voting pool.

He continues talking about @steemprentice group, and being about to have group of people to help support each other.

He also advises that this will possibly be used to connect lower people to higher people by having the whales with larger Steem Power also up vote lower dolphins or minnows in the guild.

Fuzzy talks with Virtualgrowth about incentivizing skill with a token, and about creating a website to bridge the Steem account with Bitshares account.

Long term goal of Beyondbitcoin website (where the back end is STEEM)

SteemBoost as a monetizing system

Fuzzy talks about creating a token on Bitshares to have an edge on STEEM, and how that will effect the price of Bitshares in the future.com

Virtualgrowth ends with asking about feedback.

• Steemfest attendees left feedback
• Making a connection with virtual world
• Use creative content for a Virtual Museum
• Earn Bitcoin for clicking on the different content
• New users would get value due to being monetized
• Option to be paid in STEEM or others as well

Also about Steemland where you are able to build your own structures (like Minecraft) with basic interactions.

• Blogs
• Artwork
• Photography

All of these link to web pages.

Mark with cryptodrive talks about agreement with Steemvoter, and becoming 50% co-owner, and also how Steemsports now has Chessmaster, which is focused only on chess content. (@virtualgrowth added as editor)

@officialfuzzy

Fuzzy talks about beyondbitcoin, which was created for everyone interested in cryptocurrency.

Potential for having a guild where everyone pays monthly subscriptions. (Different levels)

Steemtrails communities to enable being able to join trails to make it easier to join in one location.

Steemtrails would be a good place to follow for good content!

Dashboard to help manage accounts

• Top heavy with voting weight
• New users are not getting value
• Be able to manage accounts into weighted group
• Give the smaller groups more weight than larger users

Followmyleader uses posting keys, and has the potential to implement a dashboard.

Dashboard can:

• Show which trail master has the best track record
• People can choose by those stats who to follow

Become your own guild in Steemvoter

• People can subscribe from the back end to your guild
• Subscribers will auto vote anything thats on your feed
• You just have to get it into your feed
• Everyone who follows automatically votes as well

Able to vote on different amounts like one vote per author.

Fuzzy mentions different levels of commitments in guilds.

He continued talking about being able to hand out tokens to be able to up vote from chosen accounts, and also about making Steem Power liquid.

Coins can be integrated which can be used by everyone.

Fuzzy ends with a discussion about Steemit!

• A social network where you can monetize your friendships
• A network where people can monetize their investment by investing in Steem Power
• Blockchain to empower people to not be censored
• Having a guild of like minded people who are wanting to do similar things, and find subjective value
