"Oh no, another one of those guys"

Hello, I'm Mark and I bet that reading this post you will think/say the line written in the title...

Something like a month ago a friend of mine, which is a crypto enthusiast, talked to me about cryptocurrencies and their world. At first I was listening to him the same way you listen to a random guy that stops you in the middle of the street saying: "Excuse me, sir, do you have a moment to talk about...."

Well, at the very end he managed to have my attention and also my interest. I have been fascinated by the crypto world, I explored the crypto subreddits, read many articles on the web, etc...
However, what attracted me most is the big slice of it related to the decentralized apps. There is almost one for everything you can image, but what I found most interesting is Steemit! (By the way, many of the top apps really surprised/shocked me, e.g. CryptoKitties)

I am very active on mainstream social medias and I like to post funny facts or memes just to get a smile out of people.
I hope to do the same here on Steemit, of course without flooding the various sections with memes. I've read that you guys surely prefer quality content!

Unfortunately, I don't have a decent picture of me to show, to be honest I only have a few...both because I don't really like taking selfies or picture of me in general and also because I have never found myself so attractive or photogenic.

Welcome to the platform. You should give @chekohler a follow he’s also a meme lover and rambles, kindred spirit perhaps? (No offense Che! ;))

A great way to get some traction here is to follow bigger blogs and comment on their posts. Che replies to his followers most of the time and shares some good ones. Most people, particularly the bigger blogs, will give your comment an upvote if it’s relevant and not just spam. What are your interests? I have a wide range of blogs I follow that connect with their followers. Many bigger ones on here do not which is unfortunate.

You should try the Partiko app it’s the best one I’ve found for browsing Steemit. If you use a PC then SteemPlus is a great plugin to use. If you want to try the Partiko app you could use my referral link and would help me out! https://partiko.app/referral/cmplxty if not no worries.

Thank you a lot! Your comment is almost better than a beginner guide !

LOL if you’re looking for a user guide I put together a 4 part series cheat sheet for newbies if you’re keen to check it out! Here it is https://steemit.com/steemit/@chekohler/my-steemit-cheat-sheet-part-4-boost-your-blogging-with-dapps

That was a solid guide, I learned a bunch from it when you posted them.

You’re welcome. Let me know if you have more questions! I’ve learned a lot here, it’s a great place but can be pretty daunting to start until you find your niche. I don’t post a whole lot, mainly comment, but if you comment on things and tag me with @ I get a notification.

Either you’ve lost a whole lot of weight or you took a better photo for the platform! I know you’ve been using actifit and working out more. Jelly man! Hoping to get back to working out.

Lol well at least it’s a good distraction, always nice to be constructive! I’m sure you’ll find your balance eventually!

Yes actually I did lose a fair bit been back at soccer and eating a bit healthier, trying to extend my life while I wait for this damn Bitcoin to moon!
