Exploring Steem-Powered Publications

Saturday, August 4, 2018 - 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM - Our team will be hosting a presentation showcasing @creativecrypto and how the Magazine uses @steempress to connect a front end on WordPress to the Steem blockchain. The workshop will be held within The Crypto Renaissance Exhibition in Brooklyn, NY.

The presentation will also feature amazing artwork by @zolt.vidak (illustrator of the images you see in this post), @carrotcake, @kr-marketing, @leesol, @leesongyi, @aaronhong alongside @utopian-io development work by @jeffbernst and @emrebeyler.

Interested in learning more about The Creative Crypto and how we’ve bootstrapped a magazine on a blockchain? Join us for an extensive workshop that will equip you with the tools needed to be involved and create your very own blockchain-powered site!

In this presentation, we’ll go through the following -

  1. The structure of the website on the Steem blockchain
  2. How the SteemPress plugin is used
  3. How we commission custom creative work and articles from around the world
  4. How all creative professionals can be involved/rewarded in contributing to the project

If you are around NYC, please come by! We look forward to seeing everyone at the workshop.

The Benefits of Magazines Powered by Steem

The workshop will cover the process of how publications benefit from being built atop the Steem blockchain. Additionally, our team will cover our strategy for using it and how it is also extremely beneficial for our readership. Here's a walkthrough of some of the conversation we will have:

Our first core point - the Steem blockchain provides an infrastructure to build a whole new kind of website. Information now published on our interface will be forever preserved on this growing data network, one that is immutable, fast, global, and monetized by the native cryptocurrency Steem.

Secondly, @steempress is a streamlined plugin that connects a WordPress blog with a Steem account, allowing content creators to publish directly onto the blockchain while preserving the front-end functionality of WordPress. Creating a separate interface allows creative and entrepreneurial initiatives to tailor a much more personally fitting Steem-blog. It allows access to the robust components of the site builder - i.e. SEO optimization, multiple pages and front-end design flexibility.

Lastly, it provides one of the best mechanisms to seamlessly transfer millions of content creators and organizations that already utilize WordPress onto the blockchain. Despite the complex and diverse benefits of using a blockchain system, the difference in user experience from the WordPress user’s perspective is a simple checkbox. Integrating an established and functional blockchain as an almost invisible backend infrastructure will help focus the discussion on actionable integration rather than the rabbit hole of blockchain tutorials and explanations.

We highly recommend looking into building websites this way. For everyone interested, here are the relevant links to learn more about SteemPress.
