The Blockchain of Opportunity Celebrates an Important Day!!

in #triptolemus6 years ago

In America we celebrate July 4th as the day our country gained independence from an empire that hindered our dream of a land of opportunity and independence for all.

On Steem we also celebrate July 4th as being the first day that STEEM was distributed to content creators from all walks of life.

I just read the July 4th post from the Steemitblog and I learned that STEEM was first distributed on July 4th 2016.

It's really amazing to hear that and I love how the mission of Steem aligns with the mission that America had so many years ago. The mission is to empower individuals and organizations to rise up to their potential and reach for something greater - a greater opportunity.

If you're on Steem, regardless of which interface you use, you're contributing to this great mission. The mission to make Steem a true blockchain of opportunity for all the people who join the platforms and try to earn a living alongside you.

I imagine a day where hundreds of thousands, millions even, get to quit their terrible day jobs and join their favorite Steem platform as a full-time content creator or entrepreneur.

This blockchain has done wonders for my life and the lives of many others. I hope to see the impact continue to spread as Steem evolves into an even better ecosystem than it is right now!!!

I can just imagine the phenomenal impact Steem can have on the world. It's just going to take some time and ALOT of patience on our part. It's hard to be patient in crypto because everything is constantly moving 100mph...

We like to look at our returns each day, week or month, but we really need to start looking at it from a much more long-term view.... Our efforts on Steem and our investments into STEEM will pay off in the long-run, but it's going to take a massive amount of patience. As the rest of the world scrambles for instant gratification, we need to stay strong and keep our heads in the work.

We need to continually strive to improve and then one day we will look back at all this hard work and know that it was worth every drop of sweat!!

Now that sounds like something worth celebrating and memorizing.

Just checked your profile just to realize that we seem to share a number of interests :)

In particular that we both share a similar passion towards cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology :)

big fat upvote on the way! :)

I will follow you closely :)
Take care, Piotr
