HEYA STEEMIT FRIENDS.
I'm about to post this to my Facebook networks as an intro to Steemit.
What are your thoughts?
I must apologise to you.
I've not been on Facebook much (if at all), except to check if someone has messaged me or tagged me in something.
It's not because I think it's important to disconnect from technology or any of the cliched fashionable, yet antiquated ideas that get promulgated regularly.
Let's face and accept the truth.
We all love technology and social media.
It satisfies something we crave for.
(there are some reading this that are shaking their heads in disagreement, yet ironically are reading this on Facebook).
So why am I not here much anymore?
Because Facebook, Youtube, Instagram, etc do not pay me money for my hard work, yet every single time I (and you) post something THEY get paid and THEY get more of your personal data about you, your habits, your friends and family to use to make even more money that they don't even share with you.
They make it seem like they are providing you with a free service, but it's completely the other way around.
You all know me to be a proactive activist and constantly searching the forefront of potential new revolutionary tools to help liberate us from the shackles of this destructive, compassionless pyramid economic system.
I'VE FOUND A PLATFORM THAT IS VASTLY BETTER!
AND IT PAYS ME EVERY SINGLE TIME I POST.
And I am not talking about a little pittance like Youtube from supposed ad revenue (but only if you have over 1,000 subscribers). I get paid anywhere from $US5 to $US150.
STOP. So now you probably think I'm trying to sell you something or it's some kind of multi-level marketing scam.
Nah. I get absolutely nothing from you in any way, shape or form, aside from a recalcitrant’s pleasure knowing that one less person I care about is being duped and ripped off by a multibillion dollar corporation.
At the start of the year, Ben Lee introduced me to the start of the future of social media platforms.
Steemit
It's a revolutionary, positive, transparent and very generous platform set up on the blockchain and is it’s own cryptocurrency - STEEM. In fact, there are more Steem transactions in the world than any other cryptocurrency.
It’s a social media cryptocurrency!
The first of it's kind, but there are already more starting to follow suit.
It will take over archaic, nefarious platforms like FB, Insta & Youtube within the next 5 years. (Remember what happened to Myspace and rather suddenly?)
When that time comes you and everybody else will be wondering how the heck you got suckered in by FB for so long.
Anyway, Steemit.com is so friggin’ awesome!
It’s the kind of forward thinking idea that intelligent people participate in.
Like most social media, it costs nothing. It will never cost you anything.
It is on the stock market so you can invest in it, if that’s you thing, but for me, I just like creating high quality content, sharing it and getting paid for my efforts.
At the moment I am earning a little bit more than a part-time wage…
It won’t be long before I’m earning a full-time wage from Steemit by just doing what you and I normally do. Post.
