Maybe the answer will help a lot of users that want to delete a steemit story from the blog and don't find a quick answer. I could not find the solution yet. Please help! Thanks!
As far as I know - it is not possible. Once on the blockchain it is on there for good. It would however, be nice if we could edit our Steem blogs that are more than a week old since, if you are new, you are still learning the ropes and probably done a lot of mistakes. If you are a perfectionist like me, you want to go back and perfect the posts or improve on them. So instead of laughing at you, I ask those who see this post to please let us all know how, if possible, we can fix old posts - update them etc. I would be interested. I also thought it would be nice to delete and redo stuff. While we are at it, it would be nice if we could still earn on our blogs after the initial week. SteemIt - could you help us please?
You have opened the door. It cannot be closed. This is true of all social media, but it is infinitely moreso on Steemit---the social media platform where every post is stored on the immutable blockchain.
Of course, you can edit posts, meaning that you could whittle down your post to nothing. It would no longer appear on the site, but it would remain forever on the Steem Blockchain.
Delete the blockchain!
Well! I can only modify one post?

Sorry.
Ok. Thank you for the answer maestro!
