Hello Steemit - I may be uniquely positioned for many of your interests - thanks for investigating.

First - thanks for reading my words. I'm a retired-former market researcher for music stations and restaurant chains - who evolved those writing skills into being a blogger with over a dozen blogs and literally thousands of posts since 2006. I also have some (14) E-books that largely are collections of my best UFO (or politicial) blog posts; but I've also written some business E-books on marketing research, esoteric thought and Juggling. Yes... I've been a juggler since the mid 1970's and now have an E-book and teach others to juggle in person. I assure you - you too can learn to juggle.

Now for my `Bitcoin' story - a current passion.

I told myself in early 2014 that IF Bitcoin ever got below 600 dollars again that I'd buy some - and in August of 2014 it finally dipped below that price on Coinbase, and I began a regular small (usually 25 bucks or so) buying of BTC - each time the price going down down down. By November 2014 I had discovered the other alternative coins of Crypto in some of the early exchanges now virtually all out of use. Indeed I have several blogs related to Crypto and converted one very high traffic blog to bitcoin in 2015 - http://barfstew.blogspot.com - a blog that most of you I hope would find of high entertainment value.

Yes... I was one of the early adopters of Reddit - https://www.reddit.com/user/m4ever/ - a member of the 7 year club and a moderator of subreddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/strangestateufo/. But I was very late to Facebook, not joining until January 1st, 2015 - but I do have a UFO page now there too - https://www.facebook.com/UFO-Disclosure-Countdown-Clock-993390987340944/ - make sure to check out the UFO pictures.

Now - as much as I've turned to UFO's - writing and Bitcoin trading on Poloniex - I have a real `in your face blogging style' about the Cannabis issue (my Libertarian slant on things) - which even drew scrutiny from the higher ups one might say - http://realheavypolitics.blogspot.com/2009/11/omg-look-who-just-visited-rhp-office-of.html - you can dig deeper if you wish.

Finally - I really don't know what this is all about here at Steemit and hope to find out more real soon. Thanks for reading all of this and I hope we can interact on ideas, etc.

Wow... what a whitepaper... head spins.

Welcome m4ever, great having your links and content on the platform. Can I ask how you came across steemit?

Oh, and check out http://streemian.com for a way to have you reddit posts automatically cross-post on steemit and keep an eye of this project which will allow your rss blog posts to also automagically post on steemit.

I'll check this out as I still post at Reddit occasionally.

I wish I could be precise but I don't know for sure. I think it may have been a link that originated here.

Wow welcome to Steemit m4ever. I look forward to your posts here!

Thanks
