This week can be filed under one of the craziest weeks on the Steem blockchain for me.
I have been here for a while (Since July 2016) and saw some crazy shit but this week is right up there.
Steem went up and down like a rollercoaster making my portfolio swing with tens of thousands of dollars.
An insane amount. And hard to comprehend at times for me.
Then SBD went up to $12 making the payouts of everyone that blogs on Steemit so much higher. (And still, it's hovering around $9)
And amidst all that chaos we ( @blockbrothers) were in the clinch with Apple trying to get our app Steemify approved.
All in one week!
Great success!
But we succeeded and Apple approved the app late last night!
I was already sleeping when our developer @bennierex got the good news at 1 am.
He was ecstatic on our private channel and I missed it! I'm getting too old...lol
But when I saw the message in the morning I jumped out of bed straight away. The other guys were already awake to ( @s3rg3 and @eqko).
The whole day we have been busy launching our app Steemify.
Here you can see it in the App Store. It's real!
Now, It's Saturday evening and @eqko, the guy in the picture, just left for home where he will help his wife make her first post for Steemit. (slowly they are all converted, lol)
But first, we had some pizza and beers to celebrate today! (Something you should always do when you encounter success IMHO.)
Already we have over a hundred downloads in the App Store and it's climbing.
That's pretty successful in my book! We are very happy.
But it wasn't easy. The app bounced 3 times before it got approved.
Apple runs a tight ship when it comes to apps. Which is great for the end user but sometimes tough for the developers.
If you want to give the app a go you can grab it here:
I'm so glad the app is finally done. But we can't rest now. Going up the witness list is a tough cookie and you can't sit still. We are already working on something new.
But not tonight...no...tonight we celebrate!
I have recently become a witness with our developer group blockbrothers for the Steem blockchain. If you want to support us I would appreciate your vote here.
