In crypto, but not on Steem?

in OCD5 years ago

Are you in crypto but not on Steem?

So, you have your favorite coins and blockchains, your Telegram groups and are no stranger to the volatility of trading, massive gains (and losses) and hodling bags in the hope that one day, they will be the new Bitcoin. Fantastic, you are already a crypto one percenter!

But, why are you not on Steem?

You might know that Steem is a dPoS blockchain and STEEM is also a token - and you might already have your favorites, but Steem is much more than that - and could be much, much more with you joining the community. And it is a community made up of a highly diverse range of users from developers and investors, to content creators and consumers.

Steem isn't just part of the economy, it is creating its own economic ecosystem upon the Steem blockchain infrastructure that allows for everyone to participate in the fast-emerging technological revolution that is blockchain, crypto and the freedom and independence it offers. Not only this, it supports secondary tokenization, independently managed communities, tailored interfaces, gaming potential, censorship resistance as well as stability, scalability and security through decentralized process verification by design.

Oh, and transactions are FREE.

You might have heard about Steem before, you might think you know what it is all about from past experiences, but there is a lot of FUD and misinformation out there. It is far less about the Steem reward pool and more about the many tokens (Smart Media Tokens) that are to be built upon the Steem blockchain, to support communities and games as well as gamify existing websites to bring them into the Web 3.0 future.

But what does it offer a crypto professional like yourself?

All of this, but most importantly, a place to connect and share experiences, to build networks and relationships with people like yourself, and people unlike yourself. Regardless of how you look at it, the future of cryptocurrency requires adoption by the masses and for the most part, the entire industry has failed to gain traction past the hype of price fluctuations.

Steem offers a place for all kinds of people from the experienced to the noob to not only participate in, but be integral supports that drive end user adoption at all levels across the industry globally. You might be an investor looking to hedge through diversity, a developer wanting a very low-barrier to entry gateway to build your concept, a content creator driving for an audience and income, or a casual observer tired of the increasingly draconian control measures of centralized platforms like YouTube and Instagram.

While the industry is in the immature forming stage and looking to spread its wings, Steem has been quietly rewarding every level of user for almost four years consistently. The Steem user base is diverse and distributed globally with professionals, enthusiasts and amateurs from all walks of life, interested in all kind of niche areas, delivering all kinds of content daily. Among other things, there are dedicated investing, art, photography, technology and STEM interfaces, gaming apps, social apps and of course, all the availability a transparent blockchain offers to build upon.

You may be a seasoned crypto investor or developer, or maybe you chanced upon this article and are now crypto-curious; whichever it is, you are welcome at Steem to discover what it can offer to you, what you can add to the community now and in the future and perhaps, find a space for yourself to build a home.

For all of us in crypto, whether a Bitcoin maximalist or an altcoin connoisseur, we are all in a minority group looking to change the world by becoming the majority, by offering economic freedom through ownership and independence of thought and action.

The new economy is us being us and owning who we are.

Join the discussion, drive the future.

I sensed that from the fist sentence :) Great job!

It was an early hint, a teaser to whet the appetite. ;D

You boil it down into an easy-to-read and compelling summary of Steemit.

Thank you for this.

Thank you very much for the support to get it out there

I read this and wanted to join steem all over again haha. Brilliant promotion for Steem. You covered virtually everything

It is hard to encapsulate it all in one post while still keeping it short enough to read :)

I know what you mean. I try to keep my posts within 300-600 range because anything longer people will get bored around here. All the same, this was a really good read.

Mine are normally around the 1000+ range, this one is a bit shorter.

Nice promo piece.

One area that seems missed yet very important, in the present corporate media climate, is the immutable nature of content on the STEEM blockchain. It seems to me that many content creators, with large followings, are on thin ice on corporate social media. When and if they could be brought to STEEM (at least on a mirror basis) then followers/eyes will likely follow.

I included it indirectly

censorship resistance as well as stability, scalability and security through decentralized process verification by design.

or a casual observer tired of the increasingly draconian control measures of centralized platforms like YouTube and Instagram.

It is indeed very important, but I didn't want it to be the focus here. I also avoided talking price potential.

My bad for missing that. ✌️

All good, I didn't want it to be too bulletpointy :)

Didn't know that you were on Twitter also. Could have guessed this of course!
So you now have a new follower on the bird feed! And I did take the liberty to re-tweet!

To counter answer your question in the title, regardless if I do know your answer or not!
Would be prefer to be on Steem but not in Crypto or in Crypto but not on Steem!

Too bad I am in both. I would have preferred to only be on Steem (and yes the steem crypto) but not in crypto!

I started a new account in November to support Steem for the #posh initiative.

I think the benefit f Steem is that they work together hand in hand, but it is a learning experience that wil take time to get a nice balance while still innovating dynamically.

Another great & eloquent post that needs to be treasured in the vault of my own freaky blog. And for the same reason one which also will be deployed as a colorful billboard for few days at the entrance of my own show. :)

ReSteemed!! and on my way to RT the bling bling.

I wish people don't get their hopes up too much when they first join Steem. Keep their head down and do their daily practice on Steem. Day in and day out. Plus we should not be afraid to use the word "Investing" when talking about Steem because it's just about the only reliable way to grow the account (provided the price doesn't drop).

Many come in on the premise of money, and it seems thar people no longer remember there is no such thing as a free lunch.

I might write more on this tonight, thanks.

Yes, the messaging should be different as far as marketing is concerned. Come to Steem not to earn but to invest and earn.

invest and earn.

These two should always be tied together in the mind.

Great piece. Your one of the few here writing quality content it seems. Humans are like sheep and a few trickles can turn into a stampede faster than one might expect. One issue we will have is the power of the existing platforms algorithms to cut reach of posts promoting other platforms. We have already seen this.

Yep, it is going to be an issue for sure and at some point we have to be strong enough to stand on our own millions of decentralized legs. I am hoping that this will come through the applications as they can deliver through SMTs and still onboard onto Steem.

I am also hoping that the MSM platforms will shoot themselves in the foot a bit and we can pick up those who want more from heir digital experience.
