SteemFest² Sponsorship - Giving Back
Woo it’s been a wild ride, eh?
The good times come, the good times go, and then the good times come back again. Through it all there have been a lot of people in the community that have stuck by the project to continue to make it what it is today. As a Steem witness I feel especially thankful for all the unsung and under-sung heroes that stuck it out through the thin times.
As some of you may know my primary contribution to the platform is steemit.chat. What some of you may not know is who actually does all the work.
@firepower has been a relentless supporter, organizer, and advocate of the steemit.chat platform almost since its inception. To this day he spends a lot of time and energy behind the scenes working with the powers that be to make it even better.
@steemitqa, @pfunk, @acidyo, and others work tirelessly to keep things civil on a daily basis. Honestly, I have no idea how they keep it together but I am very grateful that they do.
@gandalf continues to be a great help behind the scenes on the back end. As one of the few other people with box access he has earned my trust and respect as a much better sysadmin than I’ll ever be.
It can be difficult to find the best way to reward all the people that have helped make Steem what it is today. To that end I have pledged my support of SteemFest² with a sponsorship of 10,000 Euros or about one month of witness pay.
Thank you all for a great ride - we’re just getting started!
Steem on,
Riverhead

Congratulations @roelandp :)
@acidyo steem seemed to be made of great people viva las steem guys let's build this tell it's huge well done to the whole community
Holy cow. It's a number I will need to take some time to process. Not only that but to see you forfeiting a month worth of computer runtime to support something you believe in.
I can not only imagine the burden you've lifted off those who would like to join steemfest2 but isn't that well to do yet. But i just gave a sigh of relief knowing I need to fork out less of what little I have to make my steemfestdream come through.
In a way I have to thank you not only for directly subsidising the ticket fee for steemfest but also the past year's worth of contributions you have given to this platform.
If it's possible, among other things, we should meet during Steemfest so that I can give you a bro hug. For making it less difficult for a poor boy like me to reach his dreams in achieving the seemingly impossible.
I wouldn't change a thing! My time on SteemIt.chat as a mod has changed me forever! ALL I want to do is MOON! GOOD OR BAD it doesn't matter! thanks @riverhead for the mention.
This is so awesome. I'm so glad to see that Steemit finds ways to get into the real world. Wish I could go!
Thanks, @riverhead!
This is just fantastic @riverhead! Thank you for all the help and support and guidance you've shown over the past year! Looking forward to some great times ahead and you can always count on my support! :)
Thanks to @pfunk @steemiqa @gandalf and @acidyo and others for helping out everyday! :)
Hey @riverhead , I saw that you up voted my last article about night photography. Big thanks ,I really appreciate it. 🙂 Idk how it comes from 10 views to 200 views, but really thank you.
You are a true Steemian! This is wonderful!
Great teamwork happening out there and in "here" too! This is so good to see and read, 5500 Steem is more than a decent amount to uplift this gathering. Good for you, good for us all! Namaste :)
you rock dude
