What type of community are we? This is a question that sparks curiosity among content creators, deep thinkers, and Curious Georges, so sit tight and get ready for the break down!

I started to use steemit/busy a week or so ago, giving me some ideas and a sense of the community. Of course, there could be mistakes. There could also be factors in the future that bring changes to the community, thus the community becoming something else entirely.
I will only talk about now.
Type of Platform
To understand the community, first, we have to look at the platform. The platform gives us an idea of what attracts us to it.
Here are some things that we know about it:
- It's a blogging and social networking website
- It's on a Blockchain
- You are rewarded with money
- and whatever else I missed
The main thing I want to hit on is that it's on a blockchain. Blockchain is something new, I mean very very new. You go out and ask people about blockchain and bitcoin, you'll be amazed at how most people don't even know of it's existence. Sure they might've heard something about it in the news or something but, nothing past that.
Now that we have that in mind, let's move to the next thing that plays an important role to conclude what type of people we are.
Type of things valued
What do we value in the community, what does that mean? How do we figure it out? That easy! go here and sort by Payouts or be efficient and look at the picture below.
Let's take the top 5 tags #life #steemit #photography #blog #steem. We discussed 2 of the 5 tags before, under the topic of Blockchain. Most of the posts in #steemit #steem surround the theme of blockchain or the currency on it (steem).
Now I want you to look at the other three, #life #photography #blog. The posts in these tags are filled with pictures of scenic views, mountains, nature, new cities, and you get the picture (pun intended).
Now that we have our ingredients, let's make the magic happen.
The Result
We are open-minded to opportunities, innovation, and forward-looking while being appreciative of what we have. We look forward to what tech could bring us while making sure to preserve the beauty that's already placed in the world. We are adventurous! thus we are exploring the edges of technology to find a new limit. We are taking a step at a time to a better future!

Thank you all, if you read the whole thing or read part or enjoyed the pictures. Let me know how you guys feel about this article whether you agree or disagree.
I'm pretty new here and to blogging as a whole. In writing this piece, I was experimenting with markdown style. I hope to cover different topics like tech, world, philosophy, health, pictures, what I learn, or some food for thought that we could discuss. So join me on this adventure to a better future!
