Yes, @dougkarr, is in Minnesota this week! We had another awesome opportunity to hang out and work face-to-face on the HardFork Series over a breakfast of savory waffles and copious amounts of coffee.
As 2017 comes to a close it’s natural for us to think about all that we’re thankful for and to start planning our goals for the next twelve months.
Personally, I’m thankful for our ever-expanding cryptocurrency and blockchain community. The sector truly is like a family working together towards a common goal. It’s exciting to see the different coins and technologies beginning to occupy their individual niches for real world use.
No matter what, it's likely that 2018 will bring the beginning of the mass adoption phase of cryptocurrency and blockchain technologies. It seems like everywhere I go these days people are talking about Bitcoin. Very few people even know about altcoins yet, let alone the transformative technology they’re built on. But soon their knowledge will deepen.
The question we have to ask ourselves is...Do we want the mainstream media, using their tried-and-true methods of FUD and aims to manipulate people’s perceptions of our sector, to be the ones delivering the message or do we want people who actually have deep knowledge of the sector to help introduce cryptocurrency and blockchain to the world?
In addition to our professional creative careers, most of us on the HardFork Series team are cryptocurrency/blockchain evangelists so we feel it’s our mission to represent this sector in the best possible light. We understand the great potential of it all because it’s sparked direct and personal transformation in our own lives.
We’re having so much fun daydreaming about how we will write some of today’s coins into our HardFork Series plot. The great thing about writing Sci-Fi is you can take today’s reality and use a dash of imagination and a sprinkle of creativity to weave a tale of how you think the future will be. If we have our way, the future will be a much better place.
Speaking of Dash…
We have only a few days left in active voting for our Dash proposal (CLICK HERE to see it)!
The entire team has been working so incredibly hard during the past 30-days of this fundraising campaign and getting our proposal approved would be the best Christmas present we could think of. If this Dash proposal gets funded we will begin Season One in January!
We still have to get quite a few Yeses to get funded. We would all appreciate your support to spread the world to your friends in the sector.
Here’s our Dash proposal link once more.
Happy Holidays from my family to yours!
Yours in the Chain,
Eric

fingers crossed for your Dash proposal, I have no influence there but I still hope for the miracle.
This is so true and VERY SOON!!:
I've been musing about this same thing
And it can't be helped but at least we the early adopters may reep some quanitifiable rewards from later adoption even if problematic. Also, I really hope that the infrastructure can maintain integrity for creatives and those who are using this tech for the greater good.
Glad you guys are having fun and making masterpieces together :-)
Thank you, Ruth! The Dash campaign has been a LOT of work but it's made our team stronger and smarter so even if it doesn't go through we'll have benefited. They've really forced us to "tighten up the ship". As, always, we appreciate you fabulous support @natureofbeing! I owe you that color logo and will get it to you before week's end. I hope your 2018 is incredible!
Cool my friend.
Many companies are actually getting interested about the blockchain technology which is really good.Cryptocurrency wasn't this popular in 2016 the same as it is now in 2017. In 2018 the popularity is going to be even bigger most likely.
I appreciate what you are doing and how you're contributing to the Steem Community and I hope you achieve what you want with the HardFork project, Dash Proposal.Remember to never give up and keep up the great work.
So so so exciting!
Love the energy and passion that is in this. That is what creates true legendary works of art!
I am cheering for you and the team regularly!
Full Steem Ahead!
