Easy Pictorial View Guide
Before starting, please check my wallet stats on steemit. I joined on 05 March and its one month statistics. I used it same as I used to do anyother platform like Facebook, Youtube, SoundCloud.
What is Steemit ?
It is a social media platform, blockchain based, where everyone gets paid for creating and curating content. Blogging and social networking platform that uses Steem blockchain to pay its users.
Steemit is operated by Steemit, Inc. which is located in New York City and headquarter is in Virginia. The company foundation was laid by Ned Scott, and Dan Larimer, creator of BitShares, and EOS.
Concept and Working Mechanism of Seemit
Users can upvote (Like in Facebook) posts and comments similar to other social media websites and the publisher who get upvoted can receive a monetary reward in a cryptocurrency token named Steem and US dollar-pegged tokens called Steem Dollars. People are also paid for curation (discovering) quality and original content posted by users. Curating involves liking (voting) comments and post submissions. If any post by other user get rewards, you will also get reward for publicizing the post by making an interaction with that user. Not only publisher is getting reward but also the one who is witnessing the post.
