Nice update on the status of SteemIT on various project. This gives a good Idea to a novice like me who is new on this platform.

Keep supporting me as I am new to this place.

Keep in touch.

Wow amazing creation my friend..Carry on dear ..best of luck...

Thank you for this review, interesting to read especially from the perspective of a user who has been here for quite a while. SMT development looks very promising and I think most of us are exited about it's release and how it will shape the digital landscape. I agree that decentralization of stake is very poor here and to be honest, instead of complaining @ned could just delegate his SP to quality curators and cleaners and it would achieve a significant impact.

Yo guys, check out my 2K18 crypto-market predictions : https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@cryptoforthewin/2k18-cryptos-predictions Big gains this year ! Big fails too !!

I can totally understand why they would want to delay some releases into 2018 seeing how Communities and SMTs may feed into each other, and also how fixing the Account creation process is vital before attempting to go viral.

Great review as well. I think all there's left to do now is continue building the most fruitful communities on the platform whilst also buckling up for high velocities coming soon :)

I think what was in 2017 roadmap is reflected in the results that are reached.
the end of 2017 was great for steemit.. 
2018 will be very different and we will see lots of new millionaires in here, besides the Platform will be very much known and will rank up for sure.
Soon Facebook, Twitter and all other social media platforms will fear Steemit revolution and this is only the beginning. I am sure of that

Nice update on the status of SteemIT on your project. Thanks for sharing this post.

Target: Q3

will you use steemconnect or it will be new, independent solution?

Is there a published roadmap for 2018? As someone who just joined I would like to see what the plans for this year are.

Last year was a blast, even though most project were not completed but they made a great step leading to what we have today.

Just entering Jan and am 99% sure that this year, the steem blockchain will reach a never before seen growth come Dec 2018

Thanks for sharing this! One thing I'd love to see is double verification to login. I love this feature when I use exchanges, and wouldn't mind using an authenticator just to verify that it's me physically logging in.

It's nice to see someone delivers what's committed. That means a lot for a project, specially on crypto :)

Great information nice post @liberosist

I do believe in STEEM, Steemit community, Steemit Inc.. A lot to be done and I can see its long term potential if not forever. Steem will rise more and more. Just keep hodling steem long enough and HODL it FIRM!!!

Long artical

i seriously do believe in the steem it family,STEEM, Steemit community, Steemit Inc. and believe it has a lot of unfulfilled potentials and can certainly go a long way if not forever. nice work @liberosist.

This is an indept review of the past and future of the steem community. It gives newbies like myself the believe in the posibilities awaiting everyone here. I hope for a brighter future with all STEEMIANS

>Questions remain about the public relations and marketing departments.

I’d love to see Steemit sell off at least a few million Steem on the open market, even if that depresses the price for a bit, and then market in a big way. A 90-second Super Bowl ad?

I feel like, compared to DASH Evolution, Steemit, Inc. has performed very well with regard to their roadmap.

I was just contemplating the question of how Steemit did this past year and then I saw this post. Good timing.

My 6 months here have been awesome - but objectively speaking, I agree Re:stake decentralization and marketing.

As to the former, of course I understand asking a bunch of folks to divest from a valuable asset is both not entirely fair and not likely to happen. 

But one of the first articles I read about steemit from 2016 mentioned the large holdings of the currency in a select few founders/early users/miners as one of the reasons it set off "pyramid scheme" alarms. 

Fact is, those optics have not really changed - and they remain a big obstacle for any kind of mass adoption.

As far as marketing is concerned - I don't entirely get it. Seems like the one problem - over centralized holdings of the currency - could be ameliorated by divesting large amounts of that currency and spending money on a larger marketing plan, which would then increase the value of the currency overall and make stake decentralization's bite a bit less fierce to boot. 

But I don't claim to have the answers to these issues - and my steemit experience has been unbelievable in almost every respect. From where I'm standing I have very little to complain about.

Gee. I also have a roadmap myself. On being  good contributor to the community. [Here](https://steemit.com/blog/@gilnambatac/i-have-introduced-myself-now-what).  Thoughts? :)

Thank you @liberosist, valuable and comprehensive break down. Much appreciated!

I am waiting for Android and IOS application!

Steemit forever! :)

That's a really good assessment.  Thank you and well done.

Good review / synopsis. Public Relations and Marketing are big.  The best tech doesn't always win.  It's all about the end user experience.  I believe Steemit is on the right track.   I would like to see Steemit.com look more attractive.  They improved it but it could be better.  Busy.org is far better than steemit.com right now in terms of the overall Steemit experience and I think we'd be better off if steemit.com just co-opted busy.org.   A lot will ride on the SMT's in 2018.   I agree, Ned needs to market the hell out of SMT's.    

Nice information @liberosist

@liberosist Great read. I think Steemit is doing a pretty good job so far. Always room for improvement of course, thank you for sharing. I would like to invite you and all that read this to stop by and join a contest I am doing called "Together We Build" it is a great way to help build the Steemit community. Thank you.

This is really interesting. Changelogs like this help illustrate the path.Let's see if it really is as peerless a blockchain as we are hoping for but things are looking good! One of my favorite aspects is the third party and community development going on especially in the open-source direction. Reminds me of modding games back in the day :)

I'm too late to keep it my little voice. But I want to say that this is a huge work has been done for all of us. To improve community capacity, to simplify the functionality of the work. It's just great. Beautiful Steemit grows and becomes better and easier with each passing day. A big thank you to everyone who works for the good of our community!
