My favorite Cryptocurrency and how we can get businesses to accept steem

I have been involved in the crypto space for over 2 years now. There are plenty of crypto transactions I have made throughout the years.

I got exposed to the crypto space through steemit.com, a social media platform that pays content creators for creating quality content. Steem was the first cryptocurrency I learnt about back then in 2018 and began accumulating through creating valuable content.

Steem has changed my life in a way that my life has majorly been sustained by the steem rewards I have always earned through my valuable engagement on the steemit platform.

I possess a bachelor's degree in Business Administration with a major in Marketing which I secured 4 years ago. Ever since I got introduced to steemit over 2years ago, I have been heavily depending on steemit for my life sustainance. I have no official job I am doing simply because I am satisfied with steem. Steem has got me covered over the years. I pay my rent and other bills using my cashed out steem rewards.

Besides steem, there are plenty of cryptocurrencies I have traded over the years I have been in the crypto business, these include Bitcoin, Ethereum and EOS.

I have also used plenty of exchanges inorder to trade and cash out my crypto and these include Bitpesa, Local bitcoin and Binance Uganda. I have used these exchanges countless times for various crypto transactions.

I used Local bitcoin for some time until it introduced a very tough KYC. I moved to Binance uganda but because Binance Uganda has delisted most of the coins, I am now using Bitpesa for my crypto payments.

Here is how businesses can be attracted to the use of steem as a form of payment.

Running ads of steem on crypto sites and also on other social media platforms such as tik-tok.

Through running adverts of steem on the different social media platforms. Steemit team can employ a few bloggers or encourage it's community members to share their content on their various social media platforms.

Running writing challenges about particular information of the target businesses

Through running writing contests about the different target businesses. Steemians can write about the different businesses and share content about them on the various social media platform. I believe that can attract the business owners to making business with steem by investing and holding some steem to reward the various content creators.

Increasing userbility and encouraging engagement

Through increasing userbility and ensuring engagement on the steemit platform. Recruiting new steemians and encouraging them to comment and engage with other users content shows a great image of steem to businesses out there. Businesses are looking for platforms that can generate for them some good traffic. That includes people learning about them and showing interest in what they are offering.
