RE: Steemit Roadmap 2018: Community Input Requested

More of this!

That may sound trite, but that's at the top of my list. Steemit, the company, is currently the primary contributor to the STEEM blockchain and Condensor (Steemit.com). As such, our investment in this ecosystem is (currently) tightly coupled to Steemit the company. By communicating like you are here and valuing our input and feedback, you're continuing to build trust with those who are have to trust you based on your Steem Power holdings and your active development. That's why communications like this mean so much to me and is so valuable.

Once thing I'd like to see more of in the future is clarity for the community about the role of Steemit.com (the website) and the STEEM blockchain platform with its Smart Media Token functionality. As the reward pool is spread between different communities using different tokens and different applications on the STEEM blockchain, it would be great to know where the priorities are so we can all set healthy expectations going forward. Some want Steemit.com to be a Facebook or Reddit killer but if the company vision is much bigger and involves tokenizing the entire web, then some expectations we have about Steemit as a website may be out of alignment with the direction you all are heading.

In essence, clarifying the nuanced difference between developing the STEEM platform and the specific Steemit-developed interface steemit.com could go a long way in aligning our expectations and goals as a community who wants to see this all succeed.
