3. Steemit Development Incentive Program

Since Steemit Inc announced the details of the new $500K Development Incentive Program last week there has been a continual flow of pitches, proposals and suggestions.

Suggestions for changes needed from members of the community have included those from @remlaps, @adeljose, @happycapital, @danmaruschak, @chriddi, @greece-lover, @jaki01 and @moecki...


Members of the community have until 15 October to put forward their suggestions for improvements to steemit.com.

All the current proposals can be found at...


The program is being overseen by a team of five top witnesses - @future.witness (@hightouch), @steemchiller, @justyy, @smt-wherein (@iguazi123) and @dev.supporters (@donekim, @glory7 & @wonsama).

After 15 October these five Community Developer Representatives will sift through all the proposals from developers and the suggestions from the community to start matching developers with suggestions and getting development underway.



Pennsif the Witness

After almost 2000 days on Steem I decided it was time to take my contribution to the platform to the next level.

I have therefore set up as a Steem witness... @pennsif.witness

If anyone would like to support what I already do, and what I am planning to do, by giving one of their 30 witness votes to @pennsif.witness I would be hugely grateful.

Hi @pennsif
As soon as I am from my PC I will support you as a witness, your work on the platform has been constant. Grateful for the mention of my publication.

There are lots and lots of things going on in Steemit, we know they are changes that when made will have a positive impact on the platform in the medium term, but we have to start now with all the good things that can be done.

Hi @josevas217, that will be great.

If I can help the Colombia-Original Community in any way, do let me know.

Thank you very much. The intention of the Colombia Original community has always been to grow and grow to be able to support more and more users, we are heading towards that.

By the way, I have already supported you as a witness. I hope you can make it to the top 20.

Thank you for supporting @pennsif.witness.

My pleasure. :-)

We Steem For Better Life Community Team will always support all forms of efforts for future steem growth.

Hopefully with the monthly awards for the Best Community, Best Steemian and Best Posts, it can trigger the steemian spirit in improving the quality of the steemit platform.

Thank you for your support for the Best of the Month contest.

You're welcome

Thank you very much for recognising me. It gives me more strength to work here.

I am so grateful for your support.

You are welcome. And thank you for voting for my witness today.

It is my pleasure. However, many users are still unaware of the purpose of witness voting and how to vote. I will make one detailed post soon. Try to create some awareness regarding it, especially for new users.

Thank you
