Yes steemit has been successful in getting the non-crytos over without them even realising it! The happy news is everybody out there thinks this is a new blogging platform which pays you without realising that the whole thing is based on cryptos. So they end up learning and get introduced to a new form of money. But the best part is while crypto was always considered a male dominated space, steemit has been successful in removing that "slur" by getting a lot of women into the space. Hail steemit for opening up the world to all beings, male or female!
