Hallo Steemit, curisity and google search introduced me!

A shout to every steemian!. I'm so excited to be a part of this wonderful community. I first heard about bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies in 2015 but as is the case with many people, didn't pay much attention. Since June of this year it's become difficult to ignore it because every news outlet i follow and social media pages, everyone seems to notice there is silent blockchain revolution taking place.

About Me:

WHY Steemit?
As an investor, I find it impossible to ignore the massive opportunity blockchain tech has presented us. Not every generation is lucky to sit at the floor of such a ground breaking innovation, really have the chance to see something so phenomenon start, grow to maturity and radically transform all aspect of our likes.

Last month I began my investment research on it, I’ve been going on and on without a pause…I figured the best way to learn more though is through the people who already enjoy the benefits. I been checking out post on steemit, even before joining and man!, there is so much interesting stuff going on here.

I believe my knowledge will be enriched through the friends and acquaintances I will make on the network. I want to learn about interesting projects, meet new people, share experience as we travel together on this journey blockchain and cryptocurrencies has set us all on.
Thank You all.
