Awesome info and updates @pennsif Thanks for putting #spud in there as well. The Steem Blockchain has a lot going on with room for more. There is something of interest for everyone, and if not then you can create your own topic/category/Dapp/NFT/Token etc. that is of interest.
I was happily surprised that I managed to find so much to include. Looking forward to keeping track of all that is going on in 2020.
@pennsif I also wanted to mention another project that I think is a noble cause, and it is by @drutter called Mission: Agua-Possible (MAP). It is a charitable effort via upvotes to gather up enough STEEM to send to the head of a family in Venezuela @edgargonzalez The funds will then be used to buy a well pump for their drinking water. I imagine it will be used by many families around them. Anyhow, give it a looker over, see if it somehow fits as News, but
ifWHEN we succeed, then it surely should be by then. Thank you again. Take care.I will keep eye out for any news coming from the project.
Thanks, mate.
Also Thursday the 30th, Adelaide meetup; again at The Jade from 6pm :)
