1. SPS receives 25,000 SBD donation
As spotted by @inertia the Steem Proposal System (SPS) has received 25,000 SBD into the @steem.dao account via @blocktrades.
The memo on the payment says "partial payment for steemit's SPS donation" so it appears to part of the Steemit Inc funding suggested by @ned at the outset of the SPS (SteemDAO) development.

Wow! People are really getting away from the steem's first DAPP (steemit) really fast. I am having my eyes on that figure specially. Most of the people have now got several front-end options and why won't they be using them. I myself have started using SteemPeak for past few days.
I find the template and draft feature of Steempeak very useful - particularly for these new posts.
Thanks for mentioning eSteem app. Kindly join our Discord or Telegram channel for more benefits and offers on eSteem, don't miss our amazing updates.
