STEEMIT IN NIGERIA: ITS SUCCESS AWARENESS AND PRESENT STATE
One of the programme or platform that am glad that I came across is steemit.The fact that it's a combination of social media platform and cryptocurrency makes it unique for its one of a kind but sadly for this wonderful platform, it is not well known amongst the Nigeria populace which is a challenging fact for we the user.
Steemit has the ability and capability to enlighten the Nigeria populace on Blockchain technology which some foreign countries had adopted and expose us to the world of cryptocurrency which on the other hand is a form of trade and investment.
Secondly, it can help Nigerians especially the youth in capacity building for its social media platform is an avenue to comment, share opinion, interact on issue and matters affecting the country.
Furthermore, since it's a cryptocurrency as well, it can help in poverty allivation and empowerment of youth for sustainable development of the country at large. These outlined fact as they often struck my mind on what the Nigeria populace can achieve from steemit makes me ponder why it hasn't gain much recognition. Inspite of these, i will make the following recommendation on how steemit can create awareness and succeed in Nigeria;
(1) users should be encourage and given avenue to create bounty/Promo, run loyalty programme/contest and allow advert of steemit on other platform.
(2) I have been telling my friends about steemit ever since i came across the platform but one thing they lamented on was the cumbersomeness of the website.These further complicate the website accessibility as per the poor internet service we have here in Nigeria. Making the website lite would solve the problem of accessibility for the Nigeria populace at large.
(3) I noticed that this social media platform has mainly cryptocurrency term unlike other social media platform which have general English term. Steemit should give room for "just social media purpose" so that visiting users would be able to navigate the website without itch.
For the sake of awareness, I wouldn't want to leave out the steemit conference and after party which is holding in November in Osun state, Nigeria which is going to be awesome that I heard about. It is a must attend programme for me because it is an opportunity to meet new people and big brains in the steemit community who would enlighten me on techniques and other related topic that would increase my productivity in steemit.
I believe, in attending the event, I would become an enlightened steemian and would be able to run an Eloquent account and increase my chances of earning.
This conference is not just for me but for all steemian who resides in Nigeria for it is a free event. You are all invited
Kindly resteem this post, so as to create awareness for this event for the benefit of all
