Happy 2018 Steemians!

To start the year off strong I want to introduce a challenge: 
Let's see how close we can each get to 2018 upvotes for a single post!

There are currently 247000+ Steemit accounts (from the most recent number I could find). Surely 2018 votes can't be that hard to get!

Here's how it will work:
1. Upvote and Resteem this post. 
2. Create your own post with the tag #upvotechallenge and link it in the comments section here.
3. Link to this post in your post as well. 
4. Closest to 2018 votes in the next seven days wins!

What will you win, you ask?

Well, in addition to a lot of upvotes on your post, you will win the satisfaction of participating in a fun challenge, and a strong start to your Steem wallet in 2018. And who wouldn't want those  things?! 

And if you don't participate? Well, you'll be bored. And you won't get a lot of upvotes. And you will have a weak wallet. And much sadness... 

I kid of course! This is all voluntary, just like the larger Steem community. 

I will announce the winner on January 9th to much thunderous applause! 

Good luck!

Glad new year! 2018 will be an incredible year. What an adventure it has been with Steem. We both have seen a considerable measure over the previous year or something like that. This undertaking has shown me to such an extent. The things I have learned are worth more than any measure of cash en route. I see the world in an entirely different manner after all I have learned since beginning with Blockchains. I truly trust the world is moving into a superior place. In the expressions of the colossal Naveen Jain we as a whole should "have an outlook of plenitude". This blockchain can be a device to change the world for good and show individuals numerous things if utilized as a part of the correct way. Information is power and It will be a blockchain loaded with learning. The Steem blockchain is getting more grounded by the day. We have seen some astounding development since this blockchain began and I know this is just the begin. When we have a completely refined item it will have the capacity to do things we cannot envision yet. The expansion of SMTs into the blockchain will intrigue and will change the way we consider the web and what is conceivable. Groups and discussions are a gigantic piece of the web. The conceivable utilizations of SMTs are stunning to consider. With Steemit and Steem we are now rolling out improvements in places that need it and offering assistance to those in require. Envision what's on the horizon for us and this blockchain. We additionally have an incredible group behind this blockchain. That is one of the principle reasons I put my BTC into this task over a year prior in the wake of discovering it on the Bitcointalk gathering and faltering onto Steemit through google look through a couple of times (accidentally hunting down different things). I at that point started some examination and saw @dan talking a couple of times about Steem. At that point saw @ned talking on YouTube and on CheddarTV and knew instinctively then he was resolved to make something extraordinary. Its awesome to see designers as you doing extraordinary things for the eco framework also @exyle with things like Steemify and Blockbrothers. Cheerful New Year again.Lets take Steemit and Steem to the following level in 2018!
