It is definitely a complicated answer if you get right into the detail of it. Simply put for me, it is an innovative blockchain with community growth built in.

That is not the end game though. The business that can be built on that network and blockchain is the real kicker as though there may be money in blogging and content creation, we also have the opportunity to stake some money, and use that money in whatever manor we choose.

Imagine a business with 10,000 facebook likes converting that to 10,000 active followers. Having a vested interest in keeping an eye on your feed that will contain business marketing is built in success for those businesses who start up here for free. Then, the real life budget can be saved when you are rewarding the patrons using your liquid steem, and the SP stake grows to provide a diversified income stream.

Just one example of course but STEEM hasn't even become what it will and is awesome already.
