In a “revelation” that will produce few gasps, Anyx is also heavily involved in the SteemCleaners initiative. Steemcleaners works relentlessly to clean up all forms of abuse on the Steemit platform, such as spam (both standard and tag varieties), plagiarism, and post-stealing/identity theft. It’s a huge and mostly thankless job, so toss Steemcleaners a vote whenever you can.

Anyx is a Peerplays Witness.
Anyx is holding 27,000 SP and is currently powering down.
