I admit that I sometimes speak with some aversion about old systems like banks but also traditional media at times.
But when my brother ( @look4balance) send me this clip today I did feel joy.

It's Steemit being mentioned in the Dutch Financial Times. For me it's just another sign that the word is slowly getting out.
Fantastic!
The Steemprice had a small pullback from the $8 mark which seems only healthy to me. It's still solidly above $6.
What I noticed about my own payouts (that have gone up a lot, because they are calculated over a 3.5 day average price) is that the amount of Steempower I get is incredible low compared to the SBD. Again another reason I consider it so precious.
I wanted to send some SBD to blocktrades today when I noticed that the option to select SBD and STEEM was not there.
I tried using it with a memo I used before just to see what would happen but it did not work.
Blocktrades is my favourite way in and out of the STEEM blockchain. I hope it's back up soon.
EDIT
block trades posted a message about the wallets. here.
> We're working as fast as possible to get the wallet back up. In the worst case, I expect it to be up in the next two to three hours.
> If you've reused an existing memo to buy or sell Steem/SBD, your transaction will automatically be processed at the time our Steem wallet comes back online.)

Hello ,
I am new to steemit , and when I first discovered it I was really overwhelmed , thinking that Facebook and its ways might come to end or be forced to change in a radical way .
As I see things I think that facebook has many glorious days to look forward too as I am a bit dispointed in steemit and the sort of "elististe way it works ....
All I have sen for now are people that argue sometimes on the feeds , just like facebook , people that put on wondrful contents and that are not even looked at because they are not really part of the steem elite or family ....
So i am wondering when you have a mass of people on a network doesn't it in the end work like our human socity works : rich get richer , poor stay poor , popular stay popular etc .....
The really positive point is that there are no ads and the trolling can be contained here , the contents are 90% of the time very interesting ... And the fact that uses the Blockchain tech which is quite revolutionary and we are only at the begining of it .
Do you really think steemit can take over FB ?
Steemit is not yet very popular here in France , and I feel quite alone as I am no one or yes I am someone with fears , a story to tell even if I can be shy , hopes and dreams just like EVERYONE .

I am from Argentina and I share some of your thoughts ( love you country by the way, i did my thesis in Tarbes, Midi-Pyrénées) , but here are some tips:
Steem and steemit is yet very very very new
You can compare with facebok but is not a new social media, its a disrruptive one, is onother creature, it will take time and they can co-exists, think that in the early beginnings of internet, people would think which 5 webs would you use more, and if you see now there are millons of web and each person uses houndresds of them for differents things, same thing will happen with blockchain, there is no winner or no five wonners, there will be houndreds...
Also, I started to post in english because the community at it most speaks that language, but later on there will be a place for each other, so I will star posting in my native language and you should too, it is very googd that you are one of the "firsts" french people on steem, you are a pioneer!
à bientôt!!
Hi. You took the time to make a Good comment (thought out, & not too short). So just keep doing that -- keep those 'fingers flying'..
*I upvoted you, in case u did not realize (not 'cause I want anything in return, but because you did a fairly good comment ).
And Also, I suggest you get some good premium images (buy some, it doesnt cost all that much) - that'll help you, in the long run.
And EDIT some of the Images to make them UNIQUE !
That's what I like to do. The more unique one can make 'em, the Better ☻
The editing program I invested in is called Adobe Elements ♦♦ Take time, do some research into editing programs, & Go girl, go.
Keep the Faith -- Jan
I noted the same early this morning and went to Steem Speak to see if I could find out more about the issue.
Luckily, when I went back later on this evening, I was able to make the transfer with no issues.
I'm also seeing that on steem.supply it is showing I have a potential earnings of 12,000 + USD. I'm sure that's got to be an error of some kind. I don't know. It would be great if it weren't as I have truly been making a serious effort to promote the site and to post quality content every day, even if it's just a meme or a well thought out comment.
So what's going on with the new changes?
