Vlog 183: The community is actively recruiting Steemians at an ever-increasing pace.

in #dtube7 years ago (edited)


I sometimes wonder how Bitcoin enthusiasts bring other people on board the Bitcoin blockchain?

The technology is without a doubt awesome and very useful but what can you do with it in the end?

(besides the fact that it goes up in price)

Only one thing. Send it from A to B. (maybe to buy something).

But to 'join' the Bitcoin blockchain you first have to buy some Bitcoin with Fiat.

A major hurdle.

If you compare this with STEEM there is hardly a comparison.

It cost nothing to join the STEEM blockchain. In fact, it's the opposite, You are given a little bit of STEEM just for joining right now.

From there you can earn crypto by creating content, curating content, monetize the blockchain through development, selling your skills (like logo design) for crypto etc....

But there is more and I have been noticing this a lot.

The community is actively recruiting Steemians at an ever-increasing pace. (I think the increase in price has helped here a lot.)

From organizing a Twitter thunderclap, to small Steem meetings in Nigeria, to even the @blockbrothers wifes and girlfriends that have all become Steemians after some convincing ;)

All this is powered of course by a blockchain that is superior to most. With 3 second block times, no fees and capable of 1.3 million transactions per day at 0.11% load on the network.

I talk about it more in my vlog.



I am a witness with our developer group @blockbrothers for the Steem blockchain. If you want to support us I would appreciate your vote here.

We build Steemify a notification app for your Steemit account for iOS.

I am actively advertising on facebook to get people on :)

Did you see that they came out with the first ever youtube ad? This is so amazing for the community and it will help it grow

Good stuff as usual man. Somehow you manage to make your vlogs useful for developers like me and new users too!

Thanks, man!

@exyle yeh, i agree with this

that steemit is a good idea and better from bitcoin because now bitcoin is not achievable but steemit is good.achieve something for creating some thing.this is the rule of the world.

Yes we are making a great progress here. Now people have started realizing the power of steemit. Soon we will be on the top of the social media. Users like you really work hard here and make it possible.

I added @blockbrothers for witness category.

Thank you so much for your support for our witness @blockbrothers!

i watched your every vlog. It really helpful for new steemitians as like me.

I am fairly new on steemit but it surely looks like a very smart blockchain product.

Yeah...absolutely

@blockbrothers, you rock at steemit!

Personally i would never advice anyone to buy bitcoin. I would never give financial advice, especially not on such a volatile asset. I also think that bitcoin is hugely overvalued when you look at comparatively much more interesting block chains.
What i would advice them to look into is stuff that i see working, or are beneficiary to the world. For example Power, Golem, or my favorite Steem. Stuff that has real world application, besides being a store of value.
Nice update, have a nice day dude :)

It's not that I disagree, but I feel the urge to point out that the word overvalued is such a tricky one. Value is determined by supply and demand, in the end, so whatever the price for bitcoin is, is its "correct" price.

This is splitting hairs, though, since I know what you mean; STEEM can do everything BTC can, and more, and better.

The thing BTC has going for it is the brand and its first mover advantage.

Yeah, exactly, and i don't think that the first mover advantage is enough :) Technically you could value one bitcoin by calculating the power price it takes to produce one, but that doesn't make much sense either

I no longer recommend which crypto to buy to anyone anymore. I do however recommend joining STEEM because it's for free.

Very true. And i think a lot of people agree with you, which is why we are seeing the rise in user base. It's gonna be awesome seeing this continue

Yes, it's the beauty of steem blockchain, we can join for free and earn some handsome rewards for posting things and sharing knowledges just like on other sites but we have been doing it for free.
Thanks @exyle for sharing and spreading the knowledge,knowledge is the power. :)

Yes it is! It's so refreshing to know people are becoming more aware of other blockchain technologies besides just BTC. Hopefully it will start to make them aware of the giant world of blockchains that await us, esp once SMTs are released. So excited about the future of such a supportive and vast network, that actually has the power to handle the large volumes of data, information, and people that IS inevitable.

It's def interesting trying to explain how the whole STEEM system works to most ppl, but after a little further explanation and checking things out themselves, most people at least start to come around. It def helps that there are so many people both here and on youtube explaining just how everything work, and attesting to the fact that this is not some ridiculous scheme or something... but instead a wonderful community and network of friends, family, and resources, where ideas, innovation, and creativity is encouraged to flourish!

2018 is going to be wild!!! Hope your New Year is off to a wonderful start my brother! It's always wonderful and motivating to read your posts. Be well as always!!

@exyle I love what Mark shares with us everyday. He is what STEEMIT is all about Content with consistent Delivery. If you are NEW to STEEMIT follow what Mark does and you will become Successful !!!

Yes... Indeed steemit remains the best platform I'v ever belonged... I was first told by @kesolink who has been doing great works to promote steemit in Nigeria. I've discussed with him my idea of promoting steemit through my music in Nigeria. We were both at the steemit meet up on Sunday,it was awsome... Wonderful post @exyle steem on

@kesolink is doing great work introducing Steem over in Nigeria!

He's really doing great, he and @bait002 introduced me to steem. I've also been working on Nigeria steem music.
