For the little while l have been on the STEEMiT platform,I can say it is a platform that changes lives by transforming ideas into valuables.
According to legend,the project was pioneered by two great men ( Ned scott and Dan Larimer). In the year 2016
The STEEMiT platform runs with a concept synonymous to that of a blogging website but what makes STEEMiT unique and outstanding is the use of BLOCKCHAIN to save contents.
The use of blockchain has made it possible for posts and comments to be rewarded with a secure token..now what I mean by this is that you get paid for posting or commenting on someone's post..amazing isnt it? Well that's just a tip of the iceberg. User accounts can upvote posts and the authors whose posts are upvoted receive a monetary reward in a cryptocurrency called "Steem or a USdollar token called "Steem-dollar.
Aside getting paid through posts,people also get paid for curating popular contents.. Now what do l mean by curating??
Curating is the act of maintaining and organizing a collection of work,I call it the manual updating of information on a data base.
However,vote strenght and curation reward is influence by the amount of STEEM POWER held by the voter..a new account gets a default of 25STEEM. The votes received by this new account by already existing accounts influences the New account's reputation either positively or otherwise.
steemit.com is one place you need to visit if you want to reach out to the world and get appreciated thereafter..its really been an awesome experience here on STEEMiT and I am enjoying every bit of my stay.
Thanks to 
Long Live STEEMiT
