Looks like this is one of the projects that'll turn the initial vision of Steem's founders into reality, where social interaction and the attention economy are merging and building markets of the future.

Cool!

Could you specify this part of the post a bit more:

Already (...) $85,573.94 hunter rewards have been generated over 184 days on top of Steem Blockchain.

What does it actually mean that hunter rewards have been generated on the Steem BC? Are these virtual tokens that can be exchanged into real tokens later on, once SMTs are rolled out?
