“...you must be for years hanging around the crypto scene, you also have a 64 rating, so you’re on the site for some time now, maybe even a very early investor (thats what i read between the lines) so how come that you do not understand much about crypto, or the full use and etiquette of steemit???”

Sure, one of my best friends has been on the scene since forever. However just like he hasn’t become a better guitar player by hanging around me, because it takes an individual’s effort and knowledge is not passed through osmosis, I , likewise, never put in the effort to learn anything more than very superficial things about crypto.

If there was some way I could enlighten you on how to have a more lucrative experience on Steemit, I would definitely share it with you. I honestly think that even two cents is better than nothing, hence my post. Most people are already busy doing these same things on many other platforms for nothing more than the value of having a place to share their ideas or original content with others (reddit, FB, twitter, Instagram etc). All I can suggest is do what you love and keep using Steemit as an outlet for that passion and hopefully you’ll make more as a byproduct as time goes on, as opposed to participating on Steemit exclusively for the money, per se. As much as we can argue that the most popular and lucrative media outlets are just pushing content out there for money, the truth is they typically hire people who genuinely have a passion for the content they create. Whether we like or agree with what they make is a matter of personal preference but chances are the person creating it likes what they create. I’d imagine you’d be hard pressed to find some soulless content-creater somewhere pushing out material with only dollar signs in their eyes. How miserable of an existence would that be?
