Hello everyone, 
Hub Status.
We now have two hubs, Port Harcourt and Uyo which will be launched on the 20th of January 2018. The hub is in full operation and is a meeting point for new and existing Steemians who come in daily to Steem, collaborate and help new users make a sense of the Steem ecosystem.
The Hub is generally decentralizing the offline has it was created to do with new locations and projects proposed Nationwide.
Every meetup, projects and expenses being organized, attended, handled and incurred by STACH is 100% powered by earnings from post payouts.
Accounts Opened.
For the week ending 07/01/2018, 13 accounts were opened at the Hub and through the ongoing #Project20millionNaija campaign which has paid out over 200SBD in rewards.

Projects.
The STACH Air-Clinic project is created to decentralize the Healthcare sector. It is the Uber of the Healthcare world and we are leaving no sector left behind as we introduce the Blockchain to our daily lives. Get ready for some new updates to this project.
SteemSoccer1.- This is a sports project as developed by Mr. Japheth aka @Theheralds. This is a sports project designed to bring the real life sporting experience to the sport's loving Steemit community with updates, contest and money making betting services that is sure to bring in the fun in more ways than one.
StachExchange.- This is a project as designed by Samuel Joseph aka @Samstickkz. This project is designed to bring some ease to the ever growing Steemit population as they are gradually getting into the full adoption of the Steem/SBD currency. We decided it is only right to provide these services that will make Steemit become a major and mostly used cryptocurrency in the world. Just change from Steem/SBD to USD, Yen, Rand, Naira etc.
SteemCamp.- The newest project on the STACH platform as designed by Michael Chijioke aka @Michaelcj the Blockchain entertainer, is designed to bring unparalleled entertainment to the world via the Steem Blockchain. The project will bring together a crop of the creative commons who will display their talents in ways like never before seen.
Lookout for this amazing first of its kind project that will be launched in the first weeks of January 2018.
Merchant services designed to accept Steeem/SBD.- This is a real time trading platform that will accept Steem/SBD as payment for goods and service and we are really excited. Looking around the Steem ecosystem, there are various projects coming with promises to make this a reality, but we are the first that will actually make it a reality as we have in our lockers a merchant service that will accept the Steem/SBD currencies for goods and services.
These various outlined projects are just a tip of the iceberg as we are set to really decentralize the offline and make the Steem economy become fully acceptable worldwide, starting from Nigeria to the rest of the world.
