Steem Blockchain maintenance: DTC token sale update

STEEM Blockchain Maintenance
Due to circumstances beyond our control (the ongoing issues on the STEEM blockchain following HF21), two features that are critical for the good development of the sale are affected:
- Account creation
- Transfering STEEM and/or SBD
As a resolution we have decided it is safer to postpone the planned DTC token sale round #1 event originally scheduled for the 6th of September.
Our team wants to make sure that Steemians will be amongst the first users to be able to buy DTC. For that matter, we want to ensure we will be able to accept STEEM as a payment method.
We are precautionarily postponing the event until at least the 20th of September.
Status review
This is two weeks from the initial intended date. On the 13th of September, we will perform a review of the status of the STEEM blockchain to ensure that it is a suitable medium upon which to transact.
Should STEEM fail to meet requirements we intend to delay a second time (further updates will follow on the 14th, this will be a go/no-go)
The DTube Chain was not affected
The semi-good news is that the DTube blockchain is not impacted when these issues happen. This means you can still use DTube if you already have your DTube account.
Just log off or disable STEEM by clicking on the STEEM logo in order not to get errors. Changing the API node for STEEM can also help during the long replays after hardforks.
Keep calm and follow us
This announcement obviously comes with some significant regret for us, however feel it important to take the steps necessary to ensure everyone who wants to buy DTC with STEEM can do so.
We hope that you, our community, understands why we've taken these measures and that while undesirable, see that it is an unfortunate requirement for the good of all of our users.

Kinda sad, but expected given the circumstances
@dtube It appears that I can't upload videos without sound on DTube? Can you .please check/fix this?
hey
I'm a little disappointed 😞. We will wait a few more days. But I'll buy tokens anyway.
good comment but like you
This is a blessing in disguise. I was not aware that dtube is conducting a token sale. More time to inform my investing friends.
Approximately how much is the price of DTC / 1 Steem ??
Can anyone help me out get up to speed with DTube? They were on steem now on their own chain? Are they still using steems blockchain for anything, any insight would be appreciated
Yes you will now have 2 accounts, one on Steem/it and one on the Dtube chain. Yes when you post a video it is put onto the Dtube site as well as your Steemit page. They did not pull a "DLive" move entirely. They have their own tokens but also use Steem as far as voting. They still have a large Steem delegation and they upvote posters to support active users.
That is about it in a nutshell. Hope it helped. BTW I make daily Dtube vids and love it. The site works really well now.
Glad to see someone saying it works 'really well' :)
I truly think it's unfair to compare us to LINO. They are the worst and when people say we are doing a semi-lino it's like saying DTube is half evil.
Exactly! I agree with you. I have seen people make the Lino statement and that is why I wanted to say you did not go that route. I know you could have, but I think you did the honerable way.
I really like what you guys have done and are doing with Dtube. I think you have a bright future and I am happy and proud to be a tiny part of it :)
Yeah we have our own blockchain now that is in testnet (so basically DTC rewards are worthless, just for fun).
If you login with STEEM account you can still do all the actions you did before (publish video, vote, comment, resteem). The follow/unfollow got moved to the new chain though because we think it's better to have a separate follow list for only dtube. The new chain also allows new options, such as tagging content as a curator (your votes influence the video's tags).
For full info on why the new chain I wrote a long-ass article about it: https://steemit.com/dtube/@heimindanger/the-core-concepts-of-dtube-s-new-blockchain
#dtube for the win, I hope you will support livestreaming too and that really will catapult you into a greater heights :D
