Loading...

I first heard about steem on bitsharestalk

I was always interested in tipping platforms, first one I used was changetip and then zapchain..

What content do you like curating?

Cryptocurrency related stuff probably, politics and funny stuff, maybe pictures as well

What’s your story and what brought you here?

I'm an animator from Kathmandu, I was actually working on a explainer video about Steam which made me curious about Steam and now I am here.

How and when did you first hear about steemit.com? (Was it word of mouth? Was it a post on another forum or social media platform? Was it a video? )

As I said earlier, I was working on this video. There was a link to the Steam at the end. Steam was not up and running back then, I joined it anyway.

What interests you the most about this platform?

The prospect of making money while having fun. I tried Tsu before but it wasn't much fun, This looks more promising though. It's a little like Reddit which I use quite often.

What content do you like curating?

Arts, Animations, funny stuffs, music, videos anything that is interesting to me.

What do you like reading about?

Stories, jokes, fun facts, articles of interest

What do you plan to write about?

I plan to write comments, questions about things I want to know more about and about the events of The KtmDrive of which I am part of.

Wow interesting to know the different ways people hear about a project. Welcome and would be interested to get your perspective from Kathmandu and learn about your events at KtmDrive!

Thank you, It seems like I am the only one from Kathmandu around here. I'll definitely be posting about the events from KtmDrive.

Hello, I'm Jerome. How did I get here? I was looking at cryptos on Bittrex the other day and happened to notice Steem. That led Me tk go to Steem's website. And, a turn here and a turn there. Glad I'm here. I want You all to know that should I post anything and it seems out-of-place or should be posted another way (proper) way please let Me know. I'm learning and confess that I do NOT know nor understand everything about Steemit, yet.

Welcome! Makes sense that being listed on Bittrex gives Steemit exposure. What other cryptos are you trading? Don't worry you can just read posts in the steem category to catch up and the whitepaper for details.

I like this Welcome thread! perhaps the category for this could be "Welcome new Steemers (Steemians?!)" Maybe the Categories of "Welcome" and "Users guide to Steemit" (or something along those lines) could be 'sticky' at the top of the categories list :-)

And I am "digging" the gardening category!!

Yes those are good ideas. Not sure if people have decided between Steemers or Steemians or something else
Great seeing your content on gardening!

Of course we're Steemians!

Onceuponatime recently came to visit me in Chile, after seeing my advertisement on a webseries about cryptocurrency. On his urging, I jumped in and have been very impressed. Glad to be among so many fellow travelers!

Great to hear! Yes he actually introduced me to the Fort Galt project. Glad to see liberty strong in Chile! Look forward to updates!

  • I've been in crypto's for some time, I think they are going to play a huge part in our future so I want to be involved.
  • I found out about this after I saw STEEM on coin market cap and was just trying to figure out what it even was. I stayed because I think this community is awesome and I think this project has some serious potential.
  • I'm still learning about the platform, I only found out about it a few days ago, but I think this is a perfect combination of reddit and what LTBCoin was trying to do.
  • Not sure yet, but it will almost definitely be crypto related.
  • Things that are going to break the mold now but be totally normal in the future. I think Steem will be there, Maidsafe, and DAO's.
  • I guess I'm going to have to find out.

Awesome. Yes Coinmarketcap is good website to get exposure. Market capitalization is a good indicator of potential so it makes sense for more people to check Steemit out from there. I'm curious to know what the latest is on Maidsafe. I check in every once in a while. Anyways see you around!

What's your story and what brought you here?

I am an active gridcoin miner/maintainer and steem has caught our community's eye.

How and when did you first hear about steemit.com?

I heard about steemit on a gridcoin forum.

What interests you the most about this platform?

We always surrender a bit of privacy when we post on social media. With other platforms, we let others monetise our content and our privacy. Steem seeks to turn that on it's head. I like that.

What content do you like curating, reading and writing?

If my activity on Reddit is a guide, then I will most likely actively participate in topics like #meditation, #NewZealand and #politics, with aimless and fun meandering elsewhere.

Welcome! I'll look more into Gridcoin. Look forward to your posts on the variety of topics!

How and when did you first hear about steemit.com?
It was hangout "Beyond bitcoin"(youtube) where Bytemaster introduced Steemit.

Great to hear! Do you follow Bitshares as well?

Yes, I do. Bitshares is a great platform!
