Utopian.io Weekly - [October 12 2018] - Making Steem A Better Place

This was a big week for us at Utopian, with a new partnership, a new category, a new hire and a huge episode of our radio show. Let’s catch up.

Welcoming Coingecko to VIPO
Anti-abuse category launched
MSP Waves Partnership
Welcoming @knowledges
Build Utopian.io v2 with us!
Our radio show is back!

Welcoming CoinGecko to VIPO

This week, we announced a major new member of our VIPO (Very Important Project Owners) club: CoinGecko. They are among the earliest and largest cryptocurrency ranking websites in the world, active since April 2014. With our help, they hopes to grow the number of contributions to their open source repository and reward their existing community of contributors.

Anti-abuse category launched

Another huge announcement this week was the launch of Utopian’s Anti-abuse category. With veteran abuse fighter (and really good dude) @iamstan as Category Manager, we believe this team will make Steem a better, safer place.

Welcoming @knowledges

We continue to expand, and this week we are so glad to announce the hiring of @knowledges as Community Managers Manager, or Super Community Manager. We still need to figure out the title, but the job is clear: This veteran Utopian, creator of @knacksteem.org, will work with our community managers to make their work smoother and better. We’re very happy with this key addition.

MSP Waves Partnership

We are delighted to announce that we have become supporters of the @MSP-Waves Broadcast Network. They’ve been kind enough to host our radio show from the start, and we are rewarding that kindness, as well as helping them grow in their mission to support Steem based radio, with a weekly 50% upvote.

Build Utopian.io v2 with us!

As you probably know, our development team has been hard at work in creating the base for the next Utopian.io, with features and functionalities requested by the community. If you’re a developer and want to help, visit our repo and take a look.

Utopian.io Open Source Radio Show on MSP Waves

After taking last week off, our radio show returned with a supersized, supercharged megashow this week. It was all about Hardfork 20, and the aftermath, with a host of witnesses - @pharesim, @reggaemuffin, @helo, @therealwolf, and @themarkymark - and Steemit’s own @relativityboy. The discussion was passionate, sometimes heated, and always interesting.

Be sure to tune in next week at 6PM UTC on Wednesday on MSP Waves!
