SMART MEDIA TOKENS AND THE LORD
This Knight has been contemplating the implications of 'Smart Media Tokens' (SMTs) for quite some time now. Then today, he had an epiphany.
Is SteemChurch destined to be Steem's very first... SMART MEDIA TOKEN?
Who are we?
It is no secret that SteemChurch is now the zenith of Steemit communities. Our enormous strength of parishioner unity is only surpassed by our incomprehensible love of the Holy Trinity.
OUR VISION:
'Freedom and liberty in the spirit of Christ'
OUR MISSION:
'To embrace and promote Christianity on the blockchain by spreading the love of God and celebrating the beauty of his creation, building a supportive community and fighting evil in whatever form it might take.'
OUR CORE VALUES:
- To provide spiritual and moral guidance within the blockchain.
- To fight for freedom in life and from oppression and slavery.
- To ensure liberty and basic human rights for all mankind.
- To celebrate the mother, the father, the children and the family!
- To grow supportive communities of faith and build effective Christian leaders.
- To give the very best of ourselves as our gift unto God.
SteemChurch Value Proposition Revealed
Where are we?
- We are a community GROWING DAILY.
- We are bridging the gap between CHRISTIANITY AND THE BLOCKCHAIN.
- We are responsible for REWARDING in excess of 25,000 SBD to the Christian faithful since inception - a mere 2 months ago.
- We have one of the highest Comment/Post ratios in the whole of Steemit.
- We are FEEDING THE WORLD... one small fish farm at a time.
Where are we going?
- We are going to revolutionise the modern practice of Christianity, utilising the very best in blockchain technology.
- We are going bridge the enormous gap between the physical congregation and online social media.
- We are going to unite Christians across the globe in Steem!
- We are going to record the words of God, in perpetuity, on this blockchain.
'UNITING CHRISTIANS IN THE BLOCKCHAIN!'
FUNDING
Achieving our goals will not be easy and will not come cheaply - but there may be a solution.
Particularly: -
'SMTs are going to be one of the main tools that will allow entrepreneurs to interface with the Steem blockchain in a way that provides them with economic incentives for building their applications and improving the platform. SMTs will also provide a mechanism for communities to distribute token rewards to their members, with influence that is proportional to the distribution of their SMT.'
What are Smart Media Tokens?
'A Smart Media Token (SMT) is a native digital asset on the Steem blockchain that can be quickly launched by anyone to help monetize online content and create incentives to encourage desired user behavior.'
Case for use number 4 from white paper:
4 - Sub-Community Moderators and Managers
'Imagine you are a moderator for a specific topic inside a forum, such as a Reddit “subreddit”
or a Steemit “community”. If a website integrates SMTs for these specific topics,
then the topic moderator/s can launch these tokens to empower the subscribers of their
topic, raise funds, and increase the quality of content curation for the community.'
Questions....
- Could a SteemChurch SMT help us achieve our mission?
- Would a SteemChurch SMT give our parishioners greater control and influence within our Church?
- Might a SteemChurch SMT act as an incentive in the onboarding of new parishioners from our own Churches to SteemChurch?
- What do we need to do to get our SteemChurch SMT ready?
Questions to ponder my friends.
I am... SirKnight!
Romans 12:2 (ESV)
'Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.'
WILL YOU JOIN THE CRUSADE FOR CHRISTIAN UNITY IN THE BLOCKCHAIN?

I believe that what ever steemchurch sets it's major aim and objective towards, will be achieved, regardless of the struggles that comes with it. Steemchurch has been uplifted by God towards greater heights and nothing can stop it's success. And with a vicious #knight like you @sirknight , all I could say is, it's already a mission accomplished.
It will because nobody stop God's work, the knight will achieve this
Wow! Great development, I think we will be able to achieve new heights in the steemit community with the smart media token!!
leader steemchurch deserves that and much more, helps us to know more God, the best community that exists in steemit, porq shows us the way the truth and life. successes and blessings. @sirknight

With an insight of this I know the right steps to take and I can see the light in a tunnel vision point view.
Thanks for showing me and my fellow steemians the way. Not all individuals would read and understand what you blogged but am most greatful I did.
This is an amazing piece of skill by brother owoblow, designing that one there, one thing is for sure the steemit church has come a Long way, it's quite an amazing initiative to set up steemchurch SMT.
However it's quite a strenuous process, but the Lord said, he is the God of all flesh, is there anything too hard for him?
The bible also says on top of this rock shall I build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail
We would need total hardwork to achieve this @sirknight,and you're a light to many of us here, thank you for this
I think the smt will help all the parishioners ,very informative post sir, thank you sir for everything, @steemchurch is growing faster
Amazing post from the great #KNIGHT of the steemchurch.
@sirknight u such a great person!
May God bless you and your family!amen!
Well lets hear some thoughts from the experts on this topic. Its a topic that need concise and elaborate contributions.
I do feel SMTs will help us achieve our aims here.
Good day @sirknight i just joined this beautiful platform of yours and i must say i am impressed with the kind of article i see. We learn daily from posts under the steemchurch tag and i hope to see more and also contribute,Thanks.
Steemchurch?? Seeing a digital church at first awed me. Then I checked through your blog and I'm more than impressed. The presence of God is everywhere and not restricted to church alone.
The vision will surely be achieved even though there are struggles but by his grace we shall overcome all, Together
Goods word is always perfect in our lives
Trust in God and every other things will be added to your life.
Thanks
Good post
The implementation of SMT into the steemchurch would help us achieve our mission and give parishioners greater control and influence within the church.
SMTs would act as incentives for quality contents hence raising the standard of quality in the church.
Am a member of your great crusade @sirknight. What ever we do in live we should always acknowledge God. Its good to known you have passion for God's work and i say, "kudos to you sir"
i impressed to know details about it and this design is very impresive... i think you sharing a informative post...
Great to share ....the great cryptocurrency..steemit community
Thank you @sirknight for bringing this glorious cooperation to life..
We will not be ashamed of the gospel.. I'll take the it to the nations...
Let God be true and everyone else be a lair
I have always been a great supporter of the SMTs initiative and I have taken special time to learn more about it for development purposes. It's nice to see that SteemChurch is looking towards the direction of expansion and I'll be willing to help the church build their software solution requirements for the launch of its SMT.
wow, its awesome post loves it, Great development.
pioneer steemchurch merits that and significantly more, encourages us to know more God, the best group that exists in steemit, porq demonstrates to us the way reality and life. triumphs and favors. @sirknight
It's really good the way you are giving a good message to the world,,I love your post,thank you my dear friend for sharing with Us,, and very good job,keep it Up,, thank you @sirknight for this post
Sounds good but how do we keep it from becoming another denomination imposing its own ideas of who gets to call themselves Christian and be a part of the group. I do hope any attempts to draw up a Statement of Faith are not successful. I have never seen one that appreciates the great diversity that is in the body of Christ. Many reflect doctrines that were developed long after Jesus and the apostles died, yet they are considered to be the litmus test for "orthodoxy", such as the doctrine of the Trinity and Penal Substitution Atonement, both doctrines that did not exist in the earliest days of the church.
I believe this idea of SMT would be a very impressive and wonderful initiative but i can only hope that God would give the steemchurch the ability to finish this initiative if they start indeed.
Sir, your every post is a lesson for us
waow nices and steemchurch in very beautiful posts in steemit.And where is @Sirknight.
Great day @sirknight I simply joined this excellent stage of yours and I should state I am awed with the sort of article I see. We gain day by day from posts under the steemchurch tag and I want to see progressively and furthermore contribute,Thanks.
Despite the challenge of @steemchurch i still believe we can do more and also thanks to this great @sirknight who has help steemian alot.thanks @steemchurch alot
May God fulfill Steemchurch's plan!
I actually love the idea of revolutionizing the modern practice of Christianity.
I should look out for this tag more often.
I'm positive this is going to be a great idea.....The #steemchurch
Great post sir. I think we will be able to achieve new heights in the steemit community with the smart media token!!

Not sure I fully understand SMT yet but will read more. However, I think the idea to practice my faith with other believers in the blockchain is absolutely awesome. I definitely want to join the crusade for Christian unity in the blockchain. Thank you for this initiative!
Ephesians 6: 6-8
not serving the eye, as those who want to please men, but as servants of Christ, from the heart doing the will of God;
serving of goodwill, as to the Lord and not to men,
Knowing that the good that each one does, he will receive from the Lord, whether he is a servant or free.
thank you @sirknight for this post

https://steemit.com/steemchurch/@henrygds/steemchurch-i-am-a-soldier-of-christ
excellent wooow
@sirknight
I am certain that a SteemChurch can help a lot in the mission you want to obtain ... the idea is never to deviate from the objective you want ... always to have the thought in Christ so that he himself can use us as an instrument to carry out his works that are only for him and for him ... !!
Hi @sirknight
This is a great job you are doing here by bringing the gospel of Christ to the steem blockchain. #steemchurch is the solution we have be waiting for. there are many wonderful contents under #steemchurch tag. How can i become part of the community? Is #steemchurch on discord?
Thank you @sirknight for your incentive and the purpose of keeping, the church steemchurch alive, with the flame of the Lord our God, is a good initiative and we should all the brothers contribute to fulfill all the objectives.
completely in agreement with you, and willing to support you in such a valuable and blessed work, to be part of this vision in community will be a privilege. let's pray for such a great project and vision
I just watched a video of a Steemit meet-up in Austin, Texas and Ned took place. They talked about the possibility of allowing communities to require x% of all posting rewards to go to said community account (assuming when you use a certain tag).
If we don't create an SMT this would be an interesting idea to help fund the church and to reduce the amount of spam in the steemchurch and celestialchallenge tags.
