9th of January is perfect time for us to wish you a Happy New Year.

Here is a short summary of our 2019 so far. We had a crazy jump into top 100 active witneses, and even faster roller coaster out of it. After which we slowly climbed back up the ladder and we are currently positioned as a 100th active witness. If you still haven't voted for us we kindly ask you to consider it, here is the steemconnect link.

In the last two months, we did a lot, but the best thing happened this morning when we finally reached our well-earned place among top 100 active Steem witnesses. This didn’t happen accidentally or overnight. Two of us did everything we could to promote our idea – I (@svemirac) spent almost every day in direct contact with potential voters, pitching our values and mission, while @hidden84 was developing our main project and partnerships with other great steemit communities. It was worth, and we enjoyed every second in discussions while receiving the feedback from steem communities. We are grateful for all the support you gave us, and we will continue to do all we can to support you and the crowd gathered around your projects and ideas! Our mission has just started, and there is a long way ahead. Like we stated before:

As many of you know, we are the project dedicated to empowering the wisdom of the crowds. When we decided to go on this adventure, we knew it will be hard and we are not complaining. We are so happy with everything that happened since we started, and we want to thank you for recognizing our community as a valuable one.

Supporting the @crowdwitness is much more than supporting @crowdmind. While we are helping our and many other communities to grow, we continue to support valuable ones like:

1. @teamserbia - Serbian community on Steem counts a large number of awesome steemians (in voting trail) 2. @steemSTEM - The greatest scientific community on steem blockchain - be sure to check their dapp steemstem.io 3. @yu-STEM - steemSTEM's local branch for western Balkan region - voting selected posts. 4. @Bananafish writing community is a safe harbour for every writer and poet. Home of the Finish the Story contest and Mizu no Oto contest. 7. @davinci.witness - numerous translators gathered around main idea to translate opensource projects. 8. @i-talent contest - more art please, let's make steem noble :)

We would be very grateful if you consider us for the supported witness.

I also encourage you to support any of these projects. They are just awesome and they have been here for relatively long time. Cheers to them!
