"Steemit has improved my life" @betamusic

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

Sometimes we do not realize the power of blockchain technology, the impact it can have on some people's life. I remember that I started using bitcoin to send money to my family in Venezuela, there was no other way they could receive it otherwise and without bitcoin I could have not been able to help them.

I have meet a lot of good people on steemit, but few of them as dedicated as @betamusic, she started a few months back and now has a good amount of followers. She wrote something today that touched me and I wanted to share it with my non-spanish audience:

Steemit has improved my life, and there is no other way to explain this, due to the well-known situation in my country, this platform has become my main source of income, and I love what I do to share on Steemit.

Beautiful, you made a brand out of your blog and I am super proud of you girl.

This goes out to all the people in developing countries that have to deal with shit that others can´t even begin to understand.

Cheers to block tech and to Steemit!

Very well said.

In some ways many of us in the West are too spoiled to realise the advantages of cryptocurrency and the disadvantages of the current systems.

That is why most average people on the street don't even know what Bitcoin is - they simply don't even know there is a problem with conventional monetary systems.

Though we are better off here we are still slaves to the system.

Well kept slaves are still slaves, they just get put in a nicer cage.

That is why I think we should push Steemit and cryptos in developing countries more than the the developed world.

The potential for growth is much greater in those places and they are more willing to accept new solutions because they are often ignored by banks and the like.

Most of them also have access to mobile phones - indeed - mobile phone saturation occurred much more rapidly in those countries for similar reasons.

Thanks also for mentioning @betamusic - she is an awesome person - I first found her through her charitable work for animals.

If you are on Steemit and care about animals you should be following her.

Thanks, @thecryptofiend I found a way to help animals in steemit, and meanwhile, also was helping me to grow as a blogger, and start a journey that gave a new direction to my life, blockchain technology is a blessing, steemit is proof of this, it has changed the lives of many, thank you again you are a great person

You are very kind - you are the one setting the example not me.

Gracias, por el post y la mención, me llena de alegría poder conocer gente como tu @chitty tienes mucha razón con todo lo que dices la tecnología blockchain ha ayudado a muchas personas, y cada día se convierte en parte fundamental de nuestras vidas, gracias por cada una de tus palabras!!
