RE: Hello I am new to steemit and excited to be here 😀
Welcome to Steemit and the world of cryptocurrency and the blockchain.
I am unsure what your experience level is with cryptocurrency and blockchain dynamics and delegated proof of stake. So if I suggest posts which are to elementary for you, I apologize in advance.
I would suggest you look at the Communities section, and join the Steemit Explained Community and Steeming Curators. The Steeming Curators has a good Introduction to Steemit post. The Steemit Explained Community has several posts explaining many questions which come up as you move forward in your journey of learning about Steemit. The other Communities are divided by interest, language, country, etc.
It’s a bit easy to be un-noticed in the larger communities over a 1000 members deornding on how many members and active members, plus how active the admin and moderator are. I will put together a short list of some posts you may wish to read. While the white and blue paper in very detailed, they can be overwhelming.
Take care and happy reading! :)
