Good day to you all my dear friends. How are we all doing today? Hope we all had a great weekend? I am happy to be sharing in this contest hosted by @reminiscence01 in Steem4Nigeria. The topic is Experience on Steemit and Plans to Contribute to its Growth.

Introduction

This is an excellent topic to discuss because as the saying goes he who does not plan has planned to fail. So the earlier we think about our stay so far in steemit, the ups and downs, the easier it will be to make a successful plan going forward.

Your first experience with Cryptocurrency and how you got to know about Steemit.

My journey in cryptocurrency started of on a wrong foot. Well, a friend introduced me to Bitcoin in 2009, when it was only $10, but I looked at it as a scam back then. Never knew it would blossom as it is today.

However my first investment in crypto was in 2019 through a friend. However, it was a private coin and finally died a natural death. I was not duly informed about cryptocurrency, so I spent some reasonable sum of money investing in shit coins which either did not give any returns or gradually phased out. It was actually not a funny experience at all.

However, in August of the year 2020, I was introduced to steemit by @ngoenyi. I never took it serious because, I thought of it like another scam and the the supports were not coming. So I abandoned it. However, after sometime, with encouragement coming from @ngoenyi, I went back to it.

Your journey so far on Steemit and what you planned to achieve.

My journey in steemit have been both bitter and sweet.

I said it is sweet because there some benefits I have enjoyed from the platform. One is that my writing skills have improved a lot.

Secondly, I have made some friends through steemit, people that I would not have met, if the platform was not there to bring is together.

Third, I have also been supported by steemit financially. This is very important knowing that my country is under-developed and earning a living is very difficult.

On the other hand, the bitter aspect comes when the support is no more, most at times you will feel frustrated and discouraged to move on.

What I planned to achieve in steemit

I had looked at steemit as a stable platform that can be a source of livelihood. Thus I planned to save the earnings from there for future use, may be as a retirement fund.

I also want to invite as many people as possible to the platform thus promoting the platform. It is also a way of promoting the native currency Steem in my locality and country. This will lead to quickening the mass adoption process of the coin. Making it a household name hence increasing its acceptability.

I also want to improve young people's lives by introducing them to the platform because I believe that with time other projects would come up on the platform.

What is the most exciting innovation the Steemit team has introduced? Discuss. (e.g Engagement challenge, Crypto academy, Curation themes, Club Status, Burnsteem, etc.)

Personally, the best innovation in the steemit platform is the introduction of the Steemit Crypto Academy.

This is not just because of the earnings but because of the crypto education it provides. The wider knowledge I have about cryptocurrencies comes from that project. I was thoroughly exposed to the crypto sphere through this project.

I will and always be thankful to the steemit team for ensuring the success of this project.

How do you intend on promoting Steemit in your country and also how you can contribute to the growth of the platform?

Like I said earlier on, steemit platform is one that I have love for and want as many persons as possible to join the platform.

I have done promotions to individual and corporate bodies before now and I intend to reignite that zeal once more via this community.

Try to get as many people as possible that will accept the coin for their services, or their goods. This utility aspect of it will drive more acceptance for the coin. Already there are some accepting it as a verifiable payment option.

Look for a ways to revive old steemians helping them to become active once more.

I personally want to see how I can invest heavily in Steem in the platform so that I would not have to rely on the curators for support any longer. Rather, I will help in supporting other peoples quality content thereby encouraging them to persevere in the platform.

Conclusion

The steemit platform is a reliable and dependable platform which can be enjoyed by all. So I am making plans to ensure my continuous stay in the platform despite all odds.

Thank you

You said it all, like every business passes through hard times so does steemit especially when the support is not coming but endurance and consistency is the key, if you have the passion to write you will be in love with steemit platform.

I believe that this platform needs to be heard from every corner of the world. It’s too great to be limited to people it should be everywhere. We would do our possible best to sell the platform to the world. Great entry and thanks for participating.

steemit platform is one that I have love for

Steemit platform will continue to be the best platform ever, thanks for promoting this platform
