RE: WordPress Steem 1.0.0 [BETA]

SteemConnect can create free accounts? A bit expensive to create an account for Steem but hopefully it will be cheaper soon.

Thanks for this idea. Yeah, it sounds good but there should be an initial investment on which I don't have funding yet.

That would be great. Looking forward to hear those! :)

No it is not free but the price varies.

The price is expensive but isn't that a cost for the owner of the website?

If the blockchain technicalities allow both you and the website owner to get some of the rewards, then the website owner should incur the cost of creating the new Steem accounts.

If the blockchain technicalities allow only you to get some of the rewards, then you will need that funding.

I am available to write a funding proposal for the Steem Whales swimming around. A casual job as your business analyst or business developer would be preferred but just the possible rewards from that proposal post and the name recognition would be enough.

Ahh, I see. Just what I thought. :D

That's a great idea. Maybe we can talk via Steemit.chat on this privately. :)

I use the same username on Steemit.chat.

Ok, thanks. I've messaged you over the Steemit.chat. :)

Just to clarify, the Steem blockchain requires someone to pay the account creation fee to open a new account.

For users who use the Steemit.com signup and go through the approval process, Steemit, Inc. pays for the account creation fee for those users.

SteemConnect is just a UI interface to the blockchain. When users use that to create an account, they are just going straight to the blockchain and creating the account themselves by paying the account creation fee out of their own account.

Thanks for clarifying that up, @timcliff. :)
