RE: Looking To Go Full-Time Steemit By Summer!!
Wow that is quite the goal! I hope you achieve it! Ill be watching! Im my mind I would love to do the same but I would like to keep my head out of the clouds. You never know though! :)
Thanks! We’ll see how it goes! Wouldn’t be my first failure! :-) May I ask what you do for a living (main source of income)? Do you have any future plans to go full-time Steemit (blockchain based social media)? What would you need to see to dive in? Thanks for the comment!
I've been self employed for 12 years. I sell consignment designer clothing online.(mainly in a private facebook group that I run) I used to sell primarily on ebay until they changed something and my sales tanked. Honestly when I discovered Steemit a couple weeks ago I had all these grandiose dreams about doing it full time, but Im trying to be more realistic...Im just going to set lower expectations for myself. I have never even written a blog before, lol... I think in order for me to do it full time Id need to see constant growth over the next year and for me to at least have 1000 SP. I think if you have more SP people will follow you because of it. Steemit's success is unfortunately going to depend on whether the entire marketcap of cryptos sees growth. When it goes up people learn about crypto and that naturally leads them here. If Steemit grows exponentially then someone like me does have a movers advantage. I am trying really hard on Steemit so far, though. Gonna give it my best shot ;)
The hard work will pay off for you wether here or somewhere else! I’m terrible at blogging and see myself becoming mainly a curator in the next year or so. I’m more into the investment side of things, but this platform is forcing me to write, which has been a good thing! I also agree that the future success of Steemit will be greatly determined by the crypto market as a whole. STEEM will lag the market as well. It’s actually functional and most the money in crypto is speculative which means they want promise not actual products (for now). But that also means that curation rewards will become some of the first “stable” income for people in crypto. I’m interested in the cash flow and not so much the gains. That’s what attracted me to Steemit! All I can say is I have no idea wether Steemit or crypto will make it, but if it does I’ll be there!
I really dont know much about curation, I am going to have to look into that one! I know it has to do with the amount of Steem power you have, and since I barely have any its gonna be a long til I earn from it,lol! Awesome hearing your enthusiasm , keep it up!
