@jayna · 
Super awesome collection of news and updates! That is such great news that Steem is on a top 10 buy list. It is such a fantastic deal right now!

I will contribute to the #steemfest4 fund. I’ve determined that I won’t be able to go this year but I do want to help support those who are attending!
