Hi, my friend! I'm back hopefully to stay. I've been busy and still am, but I'll try to manage being active on Steemit! Cheers!

So many has happened while you were away. I think your head will spin once you realise all the tokens we can now earn, besides STEEM.

Have a look here, if you wish: https://steem-engine.com/?p=tokens

Oh, my friend, I count on you to enlighten me about all the news on Steemit! Thanks for the link, I will read it thoroughly!

Help, I didn't understand a thing!

That's a list of every Token available now! 😃

You're already earning some PHOTO tokens simply for using the Photography tag, as you can see here: https://steempeak.com/@nolasco

This is not simple to explain... and I need to run for lunch now. I think you'll understand it, with time.

Basically, there are tags that activate these rewards. The most used at the moment are #palnet, #neoxian and #marlians for generalist content.

Then you have specific tags like #photography, #lifestyle, #technology, #science, #music... and so on and so on. All these will allow your posts to receive other kind of rewards.

Thank you my friend!

While you were gone, something called Tribes appeared... in short, you can say that it are clones of steemit where your posts will appear if you use a certain hashtag...
Take a look at:
https://www.photostreem.com/@nolasco (hashtag photography)
https://www.creativecoin.xyz/@nolasco (hashtag creativecoin)
https://www.neoxian.city/@nolasco (hashtag neoxian)
https://www.palnet.io/@nolasco (hashtag palnet)

When you post in steemit (or busy, or steempeak...) your post will also appear there depending on the hashtag. So you don't have to change your favorite user interface...

But now comes the fun part... when someone upvote your post, you can get different tokens, next to the value in steem. It's in parallell... Check the "wallet" in the different links I poster above...
You can "stake" those tokens (just like powering up in steemit) and also start distributing those tokens every time you upvote someone. It's automatic... no need to learn something new. Every time you upvote someone in steemit with for example 10%, you also upvote with 10% in for example PHOTO-tokens or other tokens...

All tokens are based on steem... you can buy, sell or stake unstake tokens whenever you want by going to:
https://steem-engine.com/?p=balances&a=nolasco
All those interfaces work with the same keys as you use in steemit... (start with your posting key to investigate it all...)

As a last point... if I were you, I would start using the hashtags I mentioned above... Me, but especially my human ;-) are using them too and as you are in our automatic voting bot... you should start earning rapidly ;-)

cheers and... you know where to go if you have questions ;-)

Oh, so precious this information! Thank you! I'm not sure I understand it all, especially the tokens... but I will learn!
BTW; what's your favorite platform to post? Thanks again, my friend!

I still use busy to post right now... but I'm not sure for how long. They don't seem to continue developing so I'm looking for something new...
For browsing I still use steemit... but I also spend a lot of time on the 4 userinterfaces I mentioned before...

It's easy to understand (those tokens) and once you do, you will spend a lot of time on steem-engine. Right now I do earn a lot more thanks to these tokens than with steem itself.
