How Smart Media Tokens Work: An Animated Explanation

in #smt7 years ago (edited)

Smart Media Tokens are one of the most exciting developments of the Steem platform yet. So in an effort to make SMTs more accessible, I decided to put together this short animated explainer video:

Huge thanks to @eliharrigan for his fantastic help on the animation, @andrarchy for his excellent work on the script, @zenmommas for her great VO and @the-alien and @ericvancewalton for their feedback!

Feel free to share this with your friends around the web so we can let folks know just how groundbreaking this development really is.

Yours in the Chain,
Doug

Haha so many glad's! Now I am glad to read this :)

THANK YOU for such an amazing explainer video

Thank YOU for the kind words!

That is a really nice video. Did you do that in After Effects?

Shared it on Facebook in my crypto group. I think this is the first step for a growing Steem price.

Have you seen my Steemy videos yet? I use Adobe Character Animator to make puppet videos with Steemit tutorials. I would like to create promotional videos for Steemit with the marketing team if you guys are interested in that. I think Steemy would make a very good mascot since I use the Steem logo as body for the puppet.

Great post

Question: If someone has a UIA on Bitshares, will they be able to port them over to this new SMT feature on Steemit when it launches? Will Bitshares and Steemit work together in that way, or would you have to start it all over on Steemit SMT?

My understanding is that this will be within the steem ecosystem, but to be quite honest your question is over my head! ;-)

OK, thank you. The question is popping up so wasn't sure if anyone knows yet. :-)

I was thinking the same thing although I think not( you could maybe share drop from a UIA to a SMT) Also how is this different than BTS UIAs? User tokenization is now on Steem which is cool. I guess a rebranding and fresh launch of the general idea couldn't hurt and graphene is still in play. 👍

I'm always a visual learner.. Thank you for the great explaination.

This is good explanation in a very short video. A video is better than thousand words.

Freaking exciting! really!... The possibility are endless...

This is a great video explainer!

Amazing work, I think this is a very useful and educational video :) Thank you Doug!

Also thank you @eliharrigan and @zenmommas!

I was seriously waiting for this. Screw the white papers, I need pictures!
