This is Steem blockchain on one page. You are doing a great job friend for putting all these information in one place for easy read.

I have voted for you as a Steem witness.

Glad you find Steem News useful.

And thank you for supporting my witness.

You are very much welcome friend.

This news highlight is totally accurate sir, keep it up.

Я прочитала новости и понимаю, что ничего не понимаю. Что за meme-монеты, какая от них польза кроме торговли на бирже? Выпуск крипто новостей, однако. :)

I read the news and I realize that I don't understand anything. What kind of meme coins are they, what use are they besides trading on the crypto exchange? A crypto news release, however.

It will be interesting to follow the progress of Puss.coin.
