Steemit Article on Wired Magazine!

in #steemit7 years ago

First it Trickles In Then it Pours!

See the Wired Article, "THE SOCIAL NETWORK DOLING OUT MILLIONS IN EPHEMERAL MONEY"

I think the article did a pretty good job explaining Steemit but sure made it look like our platform was just pixy dust. I hope people can see through that and join us. They also made it seem like we were very new. I don't think a year and a half is new.

Congratulations to All Who Stuck By the Platform.

Huge success for Steemit could very well be around the corner. Keep writing, engaging and building your network because if Steemit does go to the moon the early adopters will sure be glad they stuck around.

Also huge props to @HeidiTravels and @InfoVore for being mentioned in the article.

It is exciting that steemit is expanding. Nice update @hilarski

That last quote is funny. So dramatic. I'll have to check out this article. Thanks.

Excellent news!

It's really exciting to see that Steemit gets exposed to so many new people! I hope it brings in a lot of fresh faces :)

This is what we need! Exposure in 'old' media! It's only a matter of time until mass adoption occurs, but patience has never been my biggest virtue.

Steemit is the future that came to stay.
Thanks for sharing @hilarski.

excellent news in " newsss " dont tell me you are also newspaper editor hahaha

Nope, but maybe I could put it on my to do list. ; )

it would be nice we will say welcome our news reporter hilarski hahaha cryptocurrency news reporter would be great job lol

@hilarski - Sir, I just go through the article that you shared. It covered a lot of good points but it made mistakes as you think too Sir. I also wish to see Steem at moon Sir. Love it <3

Thanks for the inspiration, yes hard work and dedication is the greatest thing, continuous networking and hard work leads to the path of happiness and success. Thanks for suggestions. Happy steeming friend.

Both thought provoking quotes @hilarski I think we are on the right track.

I have to admit that the article was pretty thorough. The author sure did his homework, unlike many other journalists attempting to tackle cryptos.

we all should be happy of this that we are the first one to be on this beautiful platform :)

one and half year is not new for steemit, wait steemit can show its true power whatever magazine said.

fantastic news, it's great that steemit on wired magazine!, it surely helps steemit growth.

Yeah I think there are about half a million people now. 😀 😃 😄 😁 Have a wonderful day!

I was so excited when the article popped up on my phone. This is great news

I did not know about it until @StellaBelle tagged me on FB. Epic!

Steemit is the future that came to stay. And now what we are part of it with our work will make it bigger and strong . We will see the reward that is just around the corner. ;)

It's only a matter of time before we hit that exponential growth phase. Facebook started small too. I think they hit the nail on the head with that last part of the quote:

"But someone stands to get rich in the process."

Always good to see publicity.

it's good news, looks like steemit is growing thick and fast.

With SMT's around the corner Steem might become a popular symbol!

Well, Steemit hasn't up and vanished yet. I don't know what will happen in the future, but I don't think it would have lasted this long if it was built on nothing.

I just realised the author is a fellow Steemian @andrewmcmillen and he explained everything any lay person can understand.

WE need to thank him for the publicity he has done for us.

There is this part i liked here

But the most innovative aspect of Steem is its lack of friction: New users can join Steemit and begin earning tiny fractions of the currency immediately, without even understanding how it works. It is designed as cryptocurrency for the masses, as the barriers to entry are almost nonexistent.

You can refer this article to anyone who wants to learn about Steemit.

An article about Steemit on WIRED! Damn, it is awesome!
I'm a little bit worried about dbute and copyright on Steemit, but let's see if we really go to the moon!

Dtube is a separate entity only using the Steem blockchain so hopefully that helps.

Love both the quotes! The steemit community creates the value! I think compared to where Steemit will be in the future, we are still very new. Thanks for sharing @hilarski.

I believe it would even create more Value in the Future, the advantage Newbies would enjoy then is growing to see how far they have come. Weldone @hilarski

This is quite motivating. Let's also bring more onboard and create content that converts adorers into users. Thanks for sharing. Wish everyone can read this post!

@hilarski,
Yeah people who has no idea about STEEMIT will think this is just another social media shit! But people who understood what is STEEMIT, will understand the value of this amazing platform! Want to STEEMIT at the top of social media list and STEEM at the top of crypto currency list as well!

Cheers~

I agree with you.

I think the article did a pretty good job explaining Steemit but sure made it look like our platform was just pixy dust.
You are completely right

in any way it is more advertisement for steemit and people will sign up, more then without this article :)

Yes exactly.

This will definitely boost Steemit growth.

Good to know. I think Steemit is going to expand in no time. Anybody that got a head start will prevail.

VERRY GOOD NEWS...THANKS FOR SHAREING...

Steemit is the future :) nice post keep going ... upvoted and follow

That is for Sure ,The people whoever joined early shall have the plus point and let us increase the platform for the sake of us .

Great article, great to see that Steem is being presented to a larger audience!

Yep we are priviliged to be here first

Thanks for sharing the info @ hilarki. What a great news ?
It seems, steemit is expanding wings day by day, which is good for all steemers who are working on this great platform.

It's very funny....

I am here to stay. I will keep writing come what may. Thanks for your blog.

That is amazing publicity.

Like they say, any publicity is good publicity even if the article was a bit tilted.

This could be a major draw. It will be interesting to see if the numbers of people joining spike in the short term because of this.

A few more articles like this would do us well. Need to post that article all over FB although Zuckerberg would censor it I am sure.

Keep going yeah and have fun doing it. I made a list of about ten topics I'm blogging on. Ten blogs per day, if I can speed up my blogging i can do them in two hours in the morning and then release them as the day goes on... 😀 😃 😄 😁 Have a wonderful day!

actually steemit is a platform ..here a person can change his fate... steemit is word ..but it's valuable thing for us..... thank u for your post to inspire us....

The coverage of Steemit by media outlets in articles like this is inevitable. Hope that the reporting is good.

I've invited people to Steemit and some of them have joined. It's difficult for most people to consistently post. You put in the work Randy and I'm sure that a lot of people notice.

It is exciting that steemit is expanding.thanks for restem.
