The Hive account@guiltyparties account is 666 days old today. It's been a great ride so far.

Sure the account is younger than https://www.GuiltyParties.com which will turn 17 years old this summer but it sure feels about that long passed.

Been a while since I wrote a coherent witness update, mostly due to lack of time. Servers are running normally, nothing to report in that regard. We'll upgrade as we go.

G O A L S

• Full use of Steem blockchain
• Support for Steem-based talent/services
• User retention/engagement
• Expansion/promotion of Steem
• Decentralization
• Technical excellence

P R O J E C T S

This is what we bring to the table.

Foundation

S+ Foundation Proposal

This proposal may be getting merged with other similar proposals to prevent repetition. Read Current Proposal.

Skills Matrix/Translation Matrix

Needs more input. The originall announcement and Read Me post contains information for the first sheet. The call for translators post has second sheet details.

Expansion

Steem on Niffler.co - https://niffler.co/goal/steem

This is a sandbox trading environment that also pays mentors and sponsors. We are trying to list STEEM for free. For this to happen, we need you to sign up by clicking this link.

Retention

@DLine

This project is still going. I don't always vote with the Hive account@dline account (in fact, I usually don't) I apply its principles and the DLine project has been keeping its goal of engaging 1-2 users a week.

@Plentyofphish - https://www.pofpofpof.com

This account holds the phishing list (list of phished/hacker accounts) in its Mutes and acts as an on-chain API. When there's no phishing to flag, it goes after scam accounts that utilize bot-nets or automation. It has multiple keyholders.

Eco[BRO]system

@SteemLuck - https://www.steemluck.com

This is a fair and fun guessing game that's built on the Steem blockchain exclusively for the Steem blockchain.

@BRO-Rando

Launched today in partnership with Hive account@ats-david (Hive account@ats-witness), this is a random-chance voting bot. Try your luck for only 0.25 STEEM or SBD. If the bot can't accept your payment for whatever reason, it will refund it. The bot doesn't post any comments.

Recognition

• #Veterans daily highlighter (part of Hive account@chairborne listholder Follow on-chain API)
• #SteemSilverGold daily highlighter (part of Hive account@myprecious Follow on-chain API)

Both of the highlighters are waiting for algorithm changes as they miss posts at times. The code that filters posts was updated at the end of last year but glitches still need to be ironed out.
