STACH is 1 Year today!

in #stach6 years ago (edited)

STACH is 1 year old today and we have been doing some good through the Steem Blockchain, let's go down memory lane and celebrate.
Today marks the 1 year anniversary of the Steem Accelerator Hub, an offline decentralized community created to provide support to young people through the provision of Blockchain and Cryptocurrency Education, Electricity, Free WiFi and Conducive working spaces.

The journey so far.

The Last 365 days has been one of joy and education for everyone involved and I @ejemai have so many testimonies about this community that thought me love, sharing and collaboration. We may be at a low now given the crash in Crypto prices which affected Steem and SBD, the recent HF20 which is still being worked on to restore continuity and better rewards, but, we have had a time in the sun and the cold cannot stop us from dreaming.

Enjoy the video below.


We will be bouncing back with mouth watering offerings as soon as the system normalizes and we will be helping lots of people understand their unique place in community building and participation. We are thankful to everyone who have been with the community from the start and who through their continuous support and trust in us have helped us move from a thought in our minds to tangible and physically felt stuffs.

Appreciation and Shoutout.

What have we done?

There are so many things this community has done for and to the Steem Blockchain and we may never stop writing should start mentioning them.
We created and self-funded two physical Steem Accelerator Hubs in Nigeria and co-created one overseas.
We become the first project to be inducted into the @sndbox incubator, a place where we became more knowledgeable and met hundreds of amazing people.
We have organized and supported dozens of meetup home and abroad.
We have created a support system for new and existing Steemians and still doing that.
We created the first viral campaign for Steemit through the #Project20MillionNaija campaign.
We have pioneered new projects that constantly onboarded new users to the Steem Blockchain.
We have also created a platform for the support and encouragement of talented writers through our @Stach.pay blog.
We have also been instrumental to the development of smaller community and platforms across the Steem Blockchain.
We also created a sports sharing platform Sprtshub.io that allows sharing of sports articles across multiple blokchains.
We have been about love and operated with a desire to decentralize the offline through education and endless goodwill.

I @ejemai have so many good things I can say about this community and the people who are a function of it and I know you have something to say as well.

So, let's use the comment section to say how this community has been to us.

How has STACH helped you grow?
How has STACH disappointed or improved you?
How has STACH lived up to your expectations or not and how do you think we can do more?
What would you want to see done more for newbies and existing Steemians?

Have your say... It is our Birthday and we are excited.

Edited to add the below.

We will be having a party today, so join in.

Happy Birthday STACH, it's been a long journey filled with ups and downs but you're still here, still going strong and still the hottest community on steemit in Nigeria at least. I remember the first day I joined STACH, I remember the day the hub was opened, I remember working on the stach theme song with @klynic, @atikajayboy and everyone that was there that day, they're all great memories which I'd never have had if not for STACH.

Happy birthday STACH, keep the flag flying high!!!

This is exactly where my steemit journey started... This community gave me the first support I ever had on steemit.
It's a great day to celebrate with stach and all other stachians.

This community has also created an avenue for me to showcase my talent and develop a new found skill of problem solving.

Stach is a home for all and I celebrate this great day!
This celebration is totally for all!

Happy One year Anniversary stach!

Special Thanks to @ejemai the cell of this project and great home. You have indeed touched lives with this invention.
Great!
Congrats on this!

Just 1 year?

Wow!

That means stach has been supportive from the very beginning

I crossed the $1 post payout benchmark thanks to stach. It was a fiction and @stach and @mustard upvoted me to $5. I still remember it like yesterday.

The contests are awesome. I remember how I used to go back to the previous weeks to read the winning posts so I could be better (and win too)

I won't say all was perfect but @stach has been a blessing

Happy birthday @stach

Congratulations to every member of the amazing team behind it.

Like @pangoli (Pangolo) said:

More offline projects!! More hubs!!!

Blessings

Happy birthday STACH! The community has been a family for me and my art from my humble beginnings here on steemit. I have had cause to become a part of a group of people who appreciate my art and my contribution to the Nigerian steemit community.

It has been an awesome year and I have greatly enjoyed the different programs sponsored by the community. Shout out to @ejemai as well as the moderators for the job well done so far.

I believe that stach has more to offer us all and I celebrate you. Happy birthday

First of all, let me start by saying "Happy One Year Anniversary Stach". It has not been so easy but we Thank God for everything so far. A Big Thank to you Sir @ejemai for creating this initiative, building this community. I've met diverse minds who are very SUPPORTIVE through the Stach community. I'm grateful for giving us the opportunity to help the Stach community grow in our own little way. I look forward to seeing greater results and achievements. God bless you sir. God bless the Stach Community.

Happy birthday again #stach. Thank you for giving me a place to share my voice and the opportunity to meet amazing people. A big shout out to my fellow hosts who have now become my sisters and to the flames... I love you all very much.

Happy birthday to STACH. Congratulations to the community and to everyone who's worked to make STACH a better place for users far and wide to interact. More offline projects, more hubs.

Stach has been a huge blessing to me. I am not talking only in terms of upvote, but in terms of relevance and giving that sense of belonging. Stach accommodates you and make you feel at ease and then pushes you to discover things you didn't even know about yourself. This is a place to be. Happy one year anniversary to @stach. God bless you sir @ejemai. What a man you are sir.

Happy happy happy birthday to Stach. The progress has been awesome and I'm so glad to be part of the story. Weldone to everyone who is still standing by, more grease to your elbow.
Forward ever great Stach...
Backwards Never...

Stach has been interesting. I got one of my memorable upvoting from stach curation show. It was not massive, but it was unexpected, hence it being memorable. Stach has provided me with great friends. I met @pangoli @dawizy @winarobert @itoroarchibong from stach. Yes we meet on other severs, but stach made us close.
You guys are doing great things at just 1 year old, do more greatly excellent things. Soar!
