RE: SmartCash guide for CPU mining
Steem is Delegated Proof of Stake and is kinda of a mix between POS and POW. Not the best explanation but the way it seems to me is that the average user is allowed to Stake (Steem POWER) and then people can, if they want to, be a witness and essentailly MINE with their computers and servers. You can be a Steemian and a Witness but it's a lot harder to be a witness.
Yes witness I agree is difficult. Seems like steem is a perfect compromise. I am on it daily since September so no holding me back. Definitely not a good writer but like to stick my little nose into places. Sometimes I have a little regret but hey most of the time its been fun meeting and talking to other steemians such as yourself.
