Steem is a community website based on blockchain technology. It works like Redit except you are paying with a similar Bitcoin virtual currency for your participation. Its operation is based on three awards: the Steem, the Power Steem and Steem Dollars.
-The Steem can be bought and sold like any virtual currency. By acquiring the Steem and turning it into Steem power (power up), you can increase your income from your participation and voting power. The total number of Steem doubles every year but sharing among all participants 90% of Steem avoids some inflation effect. Every 3.32 years, the Steem is converted to 10: 1 (10 Steems become Steem 1) to avoid the precision errors.
- The Power Steem reward savings over the long term and gives voting power. The Steem power can not be transferred and request 2-year maturity and 104 payments before being converted into Steem. 90% of new Steem creates is shared among all those with the power Steem. 10% of new Steem creates is given to anyone post or participate in discussions.
- Steem Dollar = 1 Dollar. The award value of savings in the short term. It may be transformed into Steem after 5 days. Keeping Steems Dollars can receive interest.
