What is Steem

Weeeeellll :D. I think it doesn't need some huge explanation, especially if this post will be posted on Steemit. But in my eyes is Steem one of the best cryptocurrency project out there. Steem build new era of smart token platforms and hopefully one day will put facebook and youtube to the ashes. It is revolutionising system of social media, monetizing and bringing freedom to the people. It is perfect? No, but it is pretty close to it.

Steem team made Steemit (Social platform), Dtube (Media platform), Dlive (Live media platform), Busy (UI similar to facebook), DSound (Sound platform), eSteem (app on mobile phone) and all this platforms are decentralized. I am still really amazed how developers made it work. With adding steem dollars, steem power, upvoting and all platforms are just great great project.

How many times did you get paid for you post, photos, videos.? I personally have youtube channel more than 150 videos, 1400 + subs, 130 000 views and guess what..... I didn't get even 1 cent :), same with facebook and other social media.

Tips with platforms like Steemit and Dtube

• Share your stories, ideas, what you thinking about, just express your self
• Don't do it just for money
• Share and upvote good content and spread love to community
• Be active and spread good word
• Power up your steem power - You are investing in your self
• Don't be jealous on other content creators
• Buy Steem and power up - If you invest steem to the platform you will get shares as well
• There is 1.5 mil. post in one month so keep doing good jobs and build slowly your follower and community
• Quite facebook :)
• Don't copy someone! Every single person is different and Unique if he is him self. And YOU ARE UNIQUE TO! Be your self.
