Tower: A REST API implementation on the top of Hivemind by @emrebeyler [development]
Steemit Inc, currently the most significant developer of the Steem blockchain development, recently, launched hivemind. This new development streamlines many of the blockchain’s processes, and dramatically decreases the cost of running a full Steem node. While it may be a little bit difficult for new devs on the blockchain to quickly grasp the new changes, one of our brilliant moderators quickly rose to the challenge and developed a REST API interface for this new technology. Many Steem devs have expressed their appreciation for this API. Consider checking it out.

@blockchainstudio is a regular contributor to the Bug-hunting category. His reports are usually accompanied with a possible fix or a PR which already fixed the bug.
