Excelente novidades na plataforma, estou muito ancioso e determinado em conhecer,dominar e aplicar !!!

Some great insights, can see there are some really phenomenal talent around and SMTs coming to production stage will be a very happening time for Steemit

Why is not Steemit paying SBD lately?, Does it have to do with the changes you are making?

**Very nice news. I can not wait for the appearance of SMT. It seems to me, it will be a very important moment in the history of Crypto-currency.**
>Очень приятная новость. Я уже не могу дождаться появления SМТ. Мне кажеться, это будет очень важный момент в истории криптовалют.

Great information, thanks for the update and please keep them coming!

Thanks for the update!

Los SMTs serán un antes y un después en la red Steem
Steem on!!!

Any good posts or perhaps even better VIDEO of people explaining and then going into depth about how the SMT system will likely work and making it understandable. Drop a link below I'd love it.

Nice update and thanks for the details and in the 'digestible by the non-tech crowd' format too. Good to see the traction and progress. Keep it coming :-) 

Congrats, this post is feature on my news (in Chinese) today.

I feel a lot of projects that may have been wanting to use steem or another SMT initially are starting to either launch their own token or use another blockchain. Is it a concern of the team at all that the length of time this is taking may cause us to miss the boat so to speak?

Also, will there be enough of an advantage for someone to use an SMT vs. creating their own chain/token?

The reason I ask is because I would love to see some large companies involved with SMTs as opposed to just communities on steem. Is that a realistic possibility?

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

It's so good to see open communication - even over-communication around SMTs.

We, as the community, can see just how important SMTs are to the future of this platform and a lot of us have invested a lot of money, time and effort (MANY more than me!) into the platform.

Most of the frustration I've felt on Steem is with the lack of communication as to what is taking place, and when new features are planned/expected to release.

So once again, a big, BIG thank you for this update :)

A big thumbs up for team #steemit crew, for the timely and sequential development of the SMTs.

Thanks for the update!

This is fantastic to hear. High levels of clarity and transparency help in so many ways.
I will be going through those current/planned works in details.
Thanks!

Sincerely, this is really timing. As much anticipation is geared towards the launch and the progress of SMT so far. A big up to the team 

thank you thank you thank you for being more transparent! YES! it means a lot to me!

so cool, im looking forward for SMT, thanks by the way

Will there ever be a way to easily create your own membership website and domain name and use plugins for the SMT that you have created to share with your community?

What was it like to communicate all this a long time in advance? Why expect so many rumors to come out about a deadly fall and closure of steem? This lack of communication may have created a misconception that ultimately hurt the platform. I think the bull must have grabbed on by the horns and didn't let it get out!! We are going to continue with this communicational thread that helps and does not harm anyone. Greetings, friends!!

Oh how cool's that? What a great insight!!

So you just nonchalantly waited for the storm of anchorless complaints to pass until you fired the next shot on target. I like it :-)
