understanding of steemit

Steemit is increasingly in demand by many, but it is quite difficult to find enough information that can quickly explain the basics of Steemit's social media platform for beginners, let alone in the Indonesian language. As a new steemian, I had to read a lot of writing and asked a lot to understand Steemit.

Whereas social media by @Ned Scott placed as "a vision in a dream" is very important to know immediately so that people can immediately take positive benefits from the presence of Steemit. Here's a small summary that can be a quick read for beginners and a material socialization for Steemians who want to develop a steemian network in their respective regions.

Explain dong, what is Steemit?
Steemit is also social media, same with other social media, like facebook, reddit / kaskus. Through Steemit we also interact through the content of both text, images and video.

Then, different Steemit?
On the Steemit platform your content is rewarded (given monetary reward / money) with steem (digital currency), while in other social media is rewarded with like.

Why get paid?
Yes, that's because Steemit is a social media platform that runs on blockchain technology, just like BitCoin and Ethereum.

What is blockchain technology? The difference with other social media like facebook what?
Steemit is decentralized, while the facebook is centralized. Centralization means the owner, while decentralization places us as the owner of our account (private key, post key, reward key and owner key). Differences with facebook, we have not only we who have but also owned access by the owner.

The blockchain is a publicly accessible and public ledger, in which all transactions are recorded by all users, including balances held by each user.

May know how to get reward from a post?
Easy, if the content that we show on Steemit is considered interesting and given upvote by readers who are also members who already have accounts in Steemit.

Why do people want to upvote our content?
Yes, because it's interesting, and creators can choose 100% Steem Power or default rewards on 50% of the liquid currency (STEEM and Steem Dollars combination) and 50% STEEM Power between the creator and the person who is voting. According to @abduhawab option 50-50, reward given in the form of 50% SBD and 50% Steem Power to Steemian eg there are 2 SBD then we also get 2 Steem Power. Moreover, in the context of interaction, if people upvote our content, we will reply to people's votes. So, posts that cause interaction is what generates rewards for its users, both steem and follower. So, in Steemit in addition to posting, interaction or joint work greatly determines the rewards received.

Can you tell what is a steam currency?
Steem equals bitcoin entry in digital currency (cryptocurrency). Crypto currency is also a cheap means of payment, as well as free, no charge if transferred internationally. In Steemit there are two types of steam values, namely Steem Power and Steem Dollar (SBD).

In Steemit paid or free?
Differences with BitCoin, in Steemit all transactions that occur in free blockchain. If in BitCoin the miners (miners) have to pay for energy to mine. In Steemit, mine with free of charge content alias free. Also do not need to bring capital to become part of Steemit, your capital is the content you post.

I'm interested, how?
Easy, open an account in Steemit, start with an introduction, and then publish the content you wrote with interesting plus original, not plagiarism.

That's it?
Ideally get friends, build communication and relationships to work together to produce upv
