Alright! It's here! Welcome to episode 3 of Coffee and Crypto. I am your host, Ken @kenmelendez, excited to drink some good coffee and share quality insights on the latest cryptocurrency trends.
What is Coffee and Crypto all about?
I felt inspired to create a weekly show to help inspire and serve the community. I wanted to create something fun and interactive where awesome people like you could gain massive value and be entertained at the same time. The only way that I could accomplish such a feat was if I combined two of my favorite things...coffee and cryptocurrency.
This show will be shot in different formats and different locations as the weeks go by. In fact, I plan on shooting 1 or 2 shows with live guests while I am up in Toronto for the Steem Creators Conference and SMT Summitnext month. If you are interested in talking about cryptocurrency and would like to be on a future show, feel free to leave a request in the comments below.
What happens each week?
Each week I will be consuming some type of coffee whether that be hot, iced, or some type of mystery item. You will begin to notice a trend of the type of coffee I enjoy the most. Also, each week I will be picking a topic to cover in regards to cryptocurrency that you guys will provide feedback on.
At the end of each episode, I will ask you to comment below with questions you have on that topic. If you are one of the first 3 people to comment with a question, I will send you a @steemmonsters booster pack. If you comment after the first 3, then I will still gladly mention your username in the video and in the blog text.
Hardfork 20
There has been a lot of buzz going around regarding Hardfork 20. If you guys aren't familiar, think of this as a software upgrade to the Steem blockchain. This upgrade is going to help improve the ecosystem of Steem and slightly change the way it operates. Once the witnesses approve the change, it will become effective. September 25th is the expected release date of the Hardfork 20 update called Velocity. For more information about this, visit the @steemitblog original post here.
I loved viewing your guys' questions from my previous episode of Coffee and Crypto. Thank you so much for each and every comment as they mean so much to me. You are literally helping me formulate the show which is absolutely fantastic. Here are the questions you guys gave me and I do my best to answer them in the video. Also, there are minute markers so you can skip to a specific question if you so desire.
I had a special suprise as I passed the drive-through today! So excited about it and it made me so happy. Check out the video on DTube or YouTube to see what happened :)
Question 1 - @khabir (minute 4:12)
How do we get trust from @dtube to develop DTube in Indonesia?
Question 2 - @chrisrice (minute 5:59)
If DTube and other Dapps implement their own tokens via SMT's, will their users stop earning Steem in favor of SMT's?
Question 3 - @onefatindian (minute 7:38)
Why is the curation window time being reduced from 30 minutes to 15 minutes. Why not 10 minutes, 5 minutes, or less?
Question 4 - @georgexie (minute 9:21)
Will Steem HF20 change to a new protocol that could make the previous one invalid and lead to the creation of a new Steem variant like ETC vs. ETH? Will there be a split of the Steem community?
Question 5 - @karenmckersie (minute 11:47)
What do you dislike about HF20 and what do you think should have been included instead?
Next week's topic
So, the way I want to do this is I want you to tune into the video to find out what next week's topic is about. The first 3 people who find out and then leave a question about that topic below will win a free @steemmonsters booster pack.
I had so much fun with today's episode my friend. Thank you for helping to make it a success! Can't wait to see you in the next one and until then, remember... You Are Awesome! You truly are. Take care and God bless :)
