Answers: steemit development and ICOs w/SMTs [VIDEO]
Hey guys,
After doing some filming last week I decided to do some more this week - I flew in last night to NYC and met @andrarchy at his apartment where we put together this hot take on steemit.com and ICOs with SMTs. Leave your feedback below.

Could you change your avatar? IMO, it is really not cool to use distorted photo of one of Co-founder of Steem to grab others people attention.
done
Yes, I fully agree. Not cool @brensonttt
Approach with video communication with community is greate! I hope it will continue!
I like the back and forth. Keep it coming.
Many people are working to launch their business using SMTs. When will we be able to have an ETA for the launch date? Uncertainty stunt development.
If I am not wrong, in early 2018 (my guess is that in January 1st). I can't remember who said that but it was someone close to the developers.
Early 2018 is okay for now but I have a business to run and would like to have a more specific ETA or a date at which the specific ETA will be announced.
Greately, Nice to meet everyone in here
What's up @ned, thanks for the update BOSSMAN! I'm looking forward to the future of Steem!
Keep On STACKIN People!
Agreed!
Yup :)
BOSSAM?
I really don't think that they should be focusing on making too many updates or improvements to SteemIt.com. Right now the whole Steem ecosystem is far too dependent on SteemIt.com as the only front-end as was evident from the recent DDOS events.
The idea behind the Steem platform is that any number of different front-end sites can be created on top of it. I think the SteemIt, Inc team should be focusing on creating tools, frameworks, etc to make it as easy as possible for others to create their own front ends to the Steem blockchain such as busy.org and chainbb.com.
When SMTs come out I think it would be great to not only have an easy way to create your own tokens, but also to have an easy way to launch your own front-end site using those tokens. If you create your own site on top of Steem then you can fix all of the "issues" you may see with SteemIt.com however you see fit. Then if others also like your changes they can switch to using your site.
This is where I think the real future of the Steem platform is - a whole series of different sites / communities etc built on top of the Steem blockchain, using their own tokens and SteemIt.com fading into the background.
I agree to some extent but I don't want the main site to fade into the background. This site really has many issues but it is run by the core developers of steem blockchain. It is like the bitcoin.org of Bitcoin. I think it needs to make a good impression and stay updated with new features.
Cent percent agreed
This! Kind of like a Ning network built on the Steem blockchain.
@ned - keep the videos coming
Agreed.
And I wish they'd fix the exchange issue - wallets are down on Poliniex, HitBTC and shapeshift.
All the exciting plans in the world will come to nothing if people can't buy coins on the exchanges and withdraw them because the wallets are down.
i agreed with you nice instructions
love your icon, yabapmatt - baby is adorable!
Thanks! He's a few years older now, but still adorable :-)
Great heads-up on the development end of things, many are wondering and, of course as we all can see (& desire) extra goodness coming our way, I fully trust in your management. In relation to the ICOs, I think you have done a great job in underlining the essentials, especially the legal aspect of it.
This process of inclusion and participation with Q&A over video is very popular, quick and I really appreciate the feedbacks you have shared with us all. Thank you @ned!
All for one and one for all! Namaste :)
@eric-boucher, he's everywhere!
It must be all this meditation that renders my being more and more omnipresent... ;)
Namaste :)

Oh, I see what's happening here,
