Hi Steemian friends! :)
Probably you already heard about DSound somewhere here in Steem... but if not you'll get to know about it just now!
What is DSound?
DSound is a decentralized web application, developed in Javascript and React, that allows anyone to upload, listen and discover music and other sounds stored on top of the IPFS Network. It uses STEEM blockchain as a persistent database, so by posting their sounds the authors can earn rewards in cryptocurrency, when other users like their content, which can be exchanged easily to US Dollars, Euros or any other currency, with a look and feel very similar to Soundcloud.
Check DSound Intro post for more details
DSound is this! <3
DSound Discord Server (the tribe is connected)
If you're learning about DSound now or you didn't connect yet, please join our Discord server at:
There you'll find a few channels to have everybody from our community getting together and making DSound even better.
We invested a significant effort in organizing this community server and now we have rules, a set of channels where people have great chats, or support help and suggestion of features... Thanks to all participants!
Thanks also to our moderators who have done a great job in keeping this a great place to hang out! Also check their work on DSound since they are content creators as well:

@dsound witness update
Upgrade to v0.20.8 of Steem blockchain
The upgrade was smooth, no problems to register. It was not expectable either as this was just a small fix update.
Technical Infrastructure
Our infrastructure is still the same, no upgrade needed so far. Still 0 blocks missed and performance is great.
All boxes are behind firewalls, IDS and power redundancy systems. The server characteristics are subject to upgrade or revision as needed.

Requested the change of the seed node domain to @wackou, but still not changed in https://status.steemnodes.com/ . I am sure it will be changed soon by the website maintainer.
If you didn't do it yet, please move your vote from @prc witness to @dsound witness
We are now at #161 position in the witnesses ranking and finding our way through the hard way back to the top 100. It is very difficult but we are positive that we deserve to be back in top 100 as we dedicate much work to develop DSound and it also helps develop the Steem ecosystem, so fingers crossed!
Thanks a lot for all our early voters, who promptly moved their witness votes from @prc to @dsound:

Thanks a lot to all of you guys for believing in our witness project and for being part of DSound journey!
We also want ask once more to all our prior voters (of witness @prc that was disabled) to move your vote to @dsound witness so we can continue to offer stability to Steem network.
This is just a friendly reminder for our prior voters, so that you please do so when you can:

Conclusion
Our nodes are now running the latest version of the Steem Blockchain core code. But...
It is hard to be so down (#161) in the witnesses ranking, so we're counting on you to help pass the word to all your friends or simply by reposting this post, so we can get all the votes from the old witness @prc moved to @dsound witness and many more! :)
Thanks a lot to all fellow members of DSound tribe, all Steem members, developers and music addicts like us for your continued support and encouragement on this project! Without you we wouldn't be here assuming this responsibility. Big thanks to all of you!
