You can also click on these images to see all the other recent posts with this hashtag as well as the list of experts (influencers) who often use this hashtag.

There are hundreds of thousands of unique hashtags on Steem blockchain and most of them have no images associated with them.

Today we'll add an icon to the hashtag #coffee:

It is possible to add metadata to hashtags on Waivio. You can think of them as public wiki objects that can be edited by any Steem user. First, click the Edit button:
