Ladies and gentlemen, the time is finally here and I'm thrilled to announce with @voronoi our next step in nurturing real-world impact with our next project. The launch of Steem Park wasn't the final destination, instead only the first stop in a long journey that we've been planning for a long time. Many of you saw the tiny teaser from last week and today I'm here to make good on that promise.

For all the real clear details on what it is and how we're starting, check out the official announcement on the @sndbox page. This week on Hansikhouse, I'm going to tell my side of the story and how I got to the point of co-starting this venture.

We Need to Support Content


Not like Facebook or Instagram or Youtube or Twitter. Though these give a platform for diverse content, they do so in order to bolster their own value mission. Youtube needs your good content to be a viable company and service. To ensure that value, they make it very difficult for anyone to start with a rewarding process. You must reach a very high level following and viewership to even qualify for a bit of compensation.

So it boils down to this incredibly disempowering fact – there are no services or platforms that inherently support and reward creative professionals for their work. Without a private client or some other form of external backing, you're on your own kiddo.

An Accelerator Program for Creative and Entrepreneurial Spirits


It took @voronoi, me, and both of us at @hitheryon months to get “into the groove” of Steemit. Learning the ins and outs was no small feat and it was a very long while before we saw any meaningful returns. Especially in late fall/early winter, the level of optimism about Steemit as a viable financial model wasn't very reassuring either. Still, we believed firmly that this meant something more than a few bucks in the bank or some exciting “minting” opportunity for crypto. It signaled a new door of opportunity for people like us, hungry to put our creative ambitions onto a real outlet.

Yet despite our vision, we still haven't witnessed a high level of registration from our creative colleagues in the real world. Few architects, actors, comedians, performers, magicians, etc. have come onto Steemit, and I believe it is of 1 key reason – the website is still unfortunately too confusing and arduous to effectively integrate into a creative profession. Barely anyone has several months to spare when alternatives like Instagram offer one-click registration and streamlined processes.

We at @Sndbox aim to change all that. We see Steemit and the STEEM blockchain being the best emerging tool for creatives, entrepreneurs, and any other serious content creators. Forging a better version of that tool will be our full-time mission moving forward and we're excited, honored, and still very much in disbelief that we're sharing it with you all today.

For the rest of the week, I'll be telling my reason of creating the Sndbox toolkit and what it has offered me in the last several months. Be sure to tune in and as always, Steem on!

Aweome to see stuff like this come to fruition. Will be watching carefully as you progress. Would love to help out anyway I can

Thanks @jasonshick! We'll definitely let you know when the community can be more engaged! Be sure to join our @sndbox streemian trail as well to support project growth.

I just followed @sndbox . I am curious what this could bring to Steemit community. I'm looking forward to it.

Thank you @carrotcake! We'll be bringing lots of new surprises and resources in the coming days.

Steem on! It's an exciting platform for creative folk to be involved in!

It absolutely is! We're going to work to make Steemit the best resource for all creatives and entrepreneurs.

I'll try to do my part too as a new member. Diving deep into the steem. It seems like a place I want to be at. I do hope people will enjoy my unique takeaways :), at the very least it gives me an excuse to hang around with my cat all day while I'm writing :P

Una Brillante Idea! Hay que preparar también contenido en español, podemos crear un sndbox-es , puedo ayudar a traducir! y trabajar con ustedes!

This will be a great place when you are ready to launch it. Following. Thanks. 🐓🐓

Great points. Aside from not attracting known talent, the platform makes it difficult to discover "new" talent. The deluge of junk content tends to obscure some of the talented content producers.
