"This document exists for you: the user: the entrepreneur, the developer, the writer, the reader. We understand the challenges you face, and want to provide a predictably moving target for our ecosystem so that we can grow together. It includes our organizational plan for Steemit, the company, and how we work. It partially specifies the social features and functionality we will implement presently for steemit.com, the social application. Finally, it dives into the underlying blockchain technology we will design and implement to support the use and scaling of the network far into the future." - Published January 17 2017

Our long-term goal remains the same: to provide the best platform for censorship-resistant publishing and store of value to the widest user base possible, in an effort to increase human freedom and accelerate the spread of access to basic rights for all people on Earth.
In doing so, by growing the Steem Blockchain, we will have created a permissionless, censorship-resistant data layer for the entire Internet.
The first obvious application is publishing, but the possibilities for applications on the platform are limitless. Vastly expanding this community has the notable side-effect of placing STEEM in the forefront as the ultimate blockchain-based currency.
Resteemed!
