HF20 is the first step towards the new future of the Steem blockchain and it's awesome.
As I expected the new changes hardly have anything to do with current users and content creation. It all has to do with empowering entrepreneurs and developers to make this blockchain grow to incredible new heights.
The first step: The new on-boarding process. This will make it possible for entrepreneurs and developers to onboard users themselves. (Signup on dtube, dlive, steepshot).
No more need to get redirected to steemit.com where you have to go though a cumbersome free signup process or have to pay to join.
Being able to join the Steem Blockchain (without even knowing what it is) from any application/frontend (that chooses to support it) you encounter on the web is major!
Future steps are now so easy to see.
Once Dapps/communities can onboard their own users easily then through SMT's and Hivemind they can empower them.
This is how the vision of 100.000 entrepreneurs on the blockchain will play out in my mind.
The only thing that will connect all of it will be the Steem blockchain and the most powerful token of all: STEEM(power).
Again, I have said this often.
The Steempower you have earned so far with blogging has been the easiest STEEM you ever earned.
Unless you have future plans to build amazing apps like Steem Monsters you have to accept the fact that you will earn less and less Steem in the future.
I consider the future for the blockchain so bright that I bought another 5000SP yesterday.
I talk about it more in my vlog.
