Although we've only been posting on Steemit for less than a week I am hooked! Ive almost completely forgot about Facebook, IG, let alone any other social media platform out there. Here are my top 5 reasons Steemit is fire!

1. Its Crypto:

1st off I LOVE Crypto currency! Although i didn't quite understand it (Bitcoin) at first, I couldn't possibly imagine a world without it today. Its use cases, the speed, the technology behind it, it being completely Borderless! I mean I can go on for days about the rabbit hole that is crypto. Im so thankful for it. its change my life forever.

2. Getting paid to post:

Now this is really cool. My girlfriend and I would religiously post on FB,IG,Twitter exc. hoping to get 100 likes or 2. We would literally spend hours editing and thinking about the best way to cation a photo. But it wasn't until we found steemit and realized 1. we weren't getting paid & 2. WE WERENT GETTING PAID lol. "For all this hard work, we will pay you in likes". said Facebook.... 😒 😒...Weak.

❤️ Hey thats us:)

3. Steemit Rewards YOU for being an active user:

I've never loved commenting so much in my life! Steemit is the 1st platform I know that actually rewards its users for being interactive. I cant wait to get our next achievement on Steemit. lol its soooo addicting!

4. We'll be moving soon:

At the end of 2017 we'll be leaving Hawaii :/ But for good reason:) We'll be on our journey, traveling the world as digital nomads. We'll definitely be documenting and posting along the way! But theres no better platform to keep as a solid form of income if things get bumpy! Go STEEM!

5. The Community:

This is such an amazing and interactive community! We've meet the nicest and most enthusiastic people and we've only been active for a few days lol Our 1st & 2nd posts each got 16 cents in less than a day! Its incredible how endless the possibilties are here.I never thought I'd be meeting someone from South Africa let alone two!? Go follow them by the way! @readallaboutit & @sweetpea :) All in all we Really appreciate Steemit, The community and all it has to offer! Thank you
