STEEMIT

My personal opinion is that steemit is a great communication platform between people uploading varied content. People take the time to look for something that readers like or something entertaining, at least I look for information and interesting things so that you can see it and give me your opinion and a like. Personally, I like to make articles about delinquency, etc., as well as I see people do the same but since I am small because I have just started I am not super famous but with the passage of time I want to grow with your support. if you want to see something interesting in my blog just comment and I will take it into account.

Now let's go to what is steemit and where it came from and I want to tell you also that all the information and my articles are brought from WIKIPEDIA for you.

Concept.

The project was founded by Ned Scott and Dan Larimer, creator of Bitshares

The idea was described in March 2016 in the Whitepaper

The way it works resembles websites like Reddit. The only difference is that all text content is recorded forever in a Blockchain.

Users or members can make an upvote to the content they want and depending on how many votes are obtained a reward will be obtained in the form of Steem, Steem power or Steem dollars.

The fact of voting content also makes rewards in the form of Steem. It's what they call Curation Rewards. Even comments can be voted on and in this way get monetized.

Monetary system.

Steem.

It is the cryptocurrency on which Steemit is based. It is quite similar to Bitcoin, although a big difference is that the rewards are more for authors and curators than for the creators of currency or miners.

Steem's Blockchain is also the basis of other tokens: an asset called Steem dollars that is intended to always have the value of an American dollar and that is used as part of the payment to authors and curators. Steem and dollar steem can be bought and sold in the cryptocurrency market.

Steem Power: represents the influence that a user has on the social network compared to the rest of the users of the community and is measured in Steem. It can not be bought or sold but it can be transformed into Steem in a process that lasts 104 weeks. This method is called Power down. When a new user registers, the platform gives a small amount of Steem power to each member. You can always get more Steem Power through a process called Power up where the Steem is transformed into Steem power. The more Steem power a user has, the more impact their votes have. If the content is voted by someone with a considerable amount of Steem Power, then the post will be rewarded with Steem, Steem Power or Steem Dollars.

Steem Dollars: Steem Dollar is an asset that is always intended to be worth the same as an American dollar. It can be bought and sold in the cryptos market just like the Steem. On the same platform there is an integrated exchange value allowing the exchange of Steem dollars to Steem. This process usually lasts a week. The Steem Dollars will give an interest of 10% per year if they stay on the platform, but if the Steem Dollars increase in value exceeding the dollar the interest can be stopped. Conversely, if the Steem Dollars are changed to a value lower than the US dollar and the amount of them is not very high, then interest will increase. If the person chooses to convert the Steem Dollars to Steem, there will be three things that can be done with the Steem: sell it, use it as a cryptocurrency or convert it to Steem Power.

I love this platform and I like to give votes and you to me, this network is special for all who are so I love it and I want to grow a lot with it.
