Maybe this weekly can survive in the sea of Steemfest3 posts. The hype is dwindling down so let's see if we can feature non-fest articles for you!



In The Name of Business: Is Utopian Leaving Steem?



Click on image to visit the post.

Utopian is the only Social Platform for Open Source Collaboration. It was founded on the Steem blockchain, supported by Open Source enthusiasts, backed by @freedom, @misterdelegation and many others.

Utopian-io has 65k SP all on its own, attracting 3.5M SP delegations. But those numbers are just bonus statistics. What makes it amazing is the people behind it.

The inherent quality of Utopian is the fire coming from the CEO, @elear. The hard work of volunteer moderators and community managers keeps the company running. Utopian aims to be a sustainable business, how can one do that with Open Source?

Find out what @Elear's got cooking with his latest CEO diary.

Open Source community is growing everyday and we want the Steem community to go out and share Utopian to everyone on Steem and out to every corner of the world.

Remember, you don't need to be a programmer to join Utopian. Utopian wants you just the way you are.

Peer to peer store, a more refined version of SteemFleaMarket by @kaliju. This is an innovation you need to watch. Give STEEM and SBD the utility power it needs by shopping with it. Want to HODL them? Not a problem, use fiat or the DSC (decentralized shopping coin SMT) when it's available.

They have you covered - sales, auction, giveaways. You have entrepreneurial spirit? Sure, set up a store or advertise.

DSTORS is backed by the witness team, @derangedvisions and @c0ff33a; @thedarkhorse of Pay It Forward Contest, artistic couple @themonkeyzuelans and many others.

Lovenfreedom sees the great potential of DSTORS. If you are excited to contribute and push this project just in time for the holiday sales, here's their Discord.

One of the best news I ever read in a while, especially about @bobinson and how you shed light on @dstors and others! Great read!

Thanks @kaliju, your DSTORS is good news and it's worth advertising to as many people. Many are looking for ways to use crypto (not just trading) so this is a huge deal.

I for one am interested in it so I have Editor's bias on this, lol.

Yes, bobinson's work is awesome. He needs more witnesses supporting his efforts as it's for the betterment of Steem. He has a PR waiting for Steemit Inc's approval. I don't know how long it's been sitting there.

It will be great to see how they all turn out!

Appreciate the mention folks :-)

Thank you so much for the kind words; it's a lovely sentiment and Brian and I both appreciate it so much❤️

Thank you for sharing your life with us. We have both of you in our family prayers.
