This post has been pinned at the top of each group to help members find and get started on steemit.com, a 100% free way of earning a revolutionary cryptocurrency.
Today I would like to introduce you to an amazing token called STEEM, that is backed by a fast growing social network called steemit.com. I know many of you are looking for a legit way to earn free crypto currency, so continue reading and I will show you how to get started, and explain how it works in a little more detail.
What is steemit.com?
Steemit is a free to join social network and content rewards platform that makes its members the beneficiaries of the steemit economy. It does this by rewarding users with STEEM.
Steemit has redefined social media by building a living, breathing, and growing social economy; a community where users are getting rewarded for sharing their voice and creating genuine content.
Steemit is a social media platform that works by having the crowd reward you for posting genuine content. It does this thanks to the Steem blockchain and in turn the cryptocurrency; Steem is 'minted' daily and distributed to content producers according to the votes they get.
How do I earn digital tokens (STEEM) on Steemit?
Earn by Posting
By sharing your posts, you can earn up-votes from community members. Depending on the up-votes you receive, you will get a portion of the ongoing Steem reward pool.
Earn by Voting and Curating
If you discover a post and up-vote it before it becomes popular, you can earn a curation reward. The reward amount will depend on the amount of STEEM Power you have accumulated in your account.
Purchasing Steem
Users can purchase STEEM or Steem Dollar tokens directly through the Steemit wallet using bitcoin, Ether, or BitShares tokens. They are also available from other markets and exchanges including BlockTrades, Poloniex, Bittrex, Shapeshift.io, and Changelly. STEEM tokens that are powered up to STEEM Power earn a small amount of interest for holding.
Where do the STEEM tokens come from?
The Steem network continually creates digital tokens to reward content creators and curators. Some of the newly-created tokens are transferred to users who add value to Steemit by posting, commenting, and voting on other people's posts. The remainder is distributed to holders of STEEM Power and the witnesses that power the blockchain.
