Our goal with our events is to grow the Steemit community, particularly throughout the Philippines, and to educate newcomers on how to best contribute to the Steemit platform!
We had a wonderful event just 1 week ago as many of you have seen in pictures, heard about, or discussed. There was a great post about it here. Well, the hype from the first event just raised the interest in #teamphilippines even more and another event has already been planned and scheduled just 1 month from now!
This Is Fantastic!
Our wonderful #teamphilippines member 
TeamPhilippines Is Growing Rapidly!
With this rapid growth, there are a ton of questions being asked again and again by our fellow #teamphilippines members so that they can get the most out of steemit as well as properly contribute as part of the team. Some of these questions include:
- How to use Markdown
- What is a blockchain and why is it important?
- What are the basics of being a developer on for or around steemit
- What should i write about, should I include personal pictures? Is it safe?
- How do I earn from Steemit are you sure it's not a ponzi scheme?
- How can I cash out my steem and sbd/Steem Dollars into Philippines Pesos?
- What are whaleshares and Whalevotes?
- What are Steem Tools and how do I use them?
- What is MinnowSupport and should i be involved?
