STEEMIT AND HOW TO WORK STEEM

in #steemit6 years ago

Steemit is a social medium built on blockchain technology - has taken advantage of the desire for internet popularity points and has turned it into a way for bloggers to get crypto. While Facebook earns money by asking people to use it, Steemit rewards users for posting, commenting, and even just upvoting. That means if the amazing landscape image you take leads to the "Trends" page, you could potentially make hundreds of dollars worth of steam, crypto powering this site.

Unlike other social media sites, once you register with your email and phone number, you will be placed on a waiting list. This can take as little as one day for a week for administrators to verify your account. After gaining access to a new account make sure to save your password securely. Steemit does not include a password recovery system, like most other sites, so if you're locked out, you'll be out forever. Another different attribute of the Steemit account is that it can not be disabled or deleted. They are stored permanently in blockchain, just like standard cryptocurrency purchases.

Navigating Account #steemit :

Once signed in, the homepage should be similar to your feed. There are countless posts ranging from in-depth discussions to re-posting Youtube videos. The tab located at the top left of the page, next to the Steemit logo, lets you navigate to various feeds. "Trends" include posts with a ton of engagements and sounds, "Hot" is content that is soaring at the moment, and "New" is only arranged chronologically. In the top right you will find a "Post" button that will let you start getting involved in the world of Steemit. If your post or comment is funny, informative, or attention-grabbing, you'll start collecting some digital currencies in time.

STEEM is the base of the platform and is similar to bitcoin. This can be converted into two other versions of the digital currency. STEEM Power (SP), is essentially a measure of the influence on this site. The more SP you hold the more you can influence how much recognition other posts get. It's like being a highly respected critic. You can change the STEEM token to SP, but you will trade the value of fluid for Internet influence. Steem Dollars (SBD), pegged to $ 1 USD. You may redeem it with STEEM or transfer it to another account for trading or exchange. You will receive half SP and SBD as rewards for posting, or you may choose to accept all SP.
