Greetings my dear friend. It's time for another episode of ... Coffee and Crypto!

Sheesh, it has been FOREVER since I released one of these videos. (insert every excuse in the world). But it's all good because here we are now. It's fall time here in Northeast Ohio and I'm enjoying the fresh air.

Truly appreciate you joining me today, friend. It's a complete honor that you would spend your precious time with me as we embark on this beautiful Steem journey together.

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. If you are interested in talking about cryptocurrency and would like to be considered for a future show, feel free to leave a request in the comments below.

What happens each episode?

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 coffee or 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 to help with the next episode, I will send you a @steemmonsters booster pack. If you comment after the first 3, then I will still gladly mention your username if I choose your question to answer.

SMT's

SMT's, or Smart Media Tokens, are "a new way for publishers to monetize their online content and community, based on battle-tested blockchain technology". That was taken directly from the official SMT website here.

In a nutshell, SMT's, which are due for release in March 2019, will allow entrepreneurs and developers the opportunity to reward their users with a valuable asset that runs on the backbone of Steem. Right now is an exciting time to be a Steemian. Please do not underestimate the high potential this blockchain has.

Without further ado, let's jump into the questions, shall we? These questions came straight from the horse's mouth, AKA you! Am I calling you a horse? No, it's silly American expression. To easily view the answer to your question in the video, simply use the minute markers I've placed next to each question.

Question 1 - @karenmckersie (minute 4:03)

Will all SMT's be cashable into Steem?

Question 2 - @onefatindian (minute 6:21)

Will you be looking to monetize your content with SMT's?

Question 3 - @mrchef111 (minute 7:05)

Are there any websites out there that you hope will start using SMT's?

Question 4 - @ange.nkuru (minute 8:46)

Is it possible that having too many communities with their own token will lead to worse beefs than these days? Perhaps even trying to sabotage each other?

Next week's topic

The way I'd like 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. You need to first have a starter pack in order to open the booster pack.

I had so much fun with today's episode my friend. Thank you for helping to make it a success! Also, if you have any constructive criticism on how I can improve these episodes, feel free to leave your comments below. Hope you have an amazing rest of your day and keep on Steeming! The future looks bright for our beloved blockchain.

Never quit and always believe.
