Introduction

---

Greetings everyone! I hope you are all doing well. I welcome you all to Season 2 of the S4B Crypto Contest. The purpose of this contest is to enhance our collective knowledge of crypto-related topics.

As we all know, Steemit is a blockchain-based social media platform with its native coin, Steem, which is essentially a type of cryptocurrency. Therefore, I would like everyone associated with this platform to have a basic understanding of crypto, blockchain, and trading-related concepts.

In this contest, you will be given some simple questions, based on which you are required to write your blog post. It's not necessary to simply answer these questions; you can write freely, but the aim is to ensure that your post revolves around them.

Lastly, don't forget to read the contest rules, as they are very important. 🙂

1st 🏆	Booming
