Introduction to Steemit a Blockchain-based Social Network Maria Thomas 7/6/17, 12:55 AM

Hello Class,

In today's Live Chat I mentioned Cryptocurrencies and Blockchain based technologies. Since many of you are fairly new to the industry, I thought I would present you with a good place to blog about what you are learning both inside and outside of class in terms of Cybersecurity (or whatever you choose) to help you to establish a voice within the community. The cool part is that on Steemit you will get paid for your efforts. This is a formal definition of what Steemit actually is:

Steemit is a social network that looks and functions a lot like Reddit, but with one HUGE difference: Steemit pays both the content creators when their work gets upvoted, as well as the people who curate the best content on the site by upvoting others work.

You can signup at steemit.com. By the way my handle on steemit is https://steemit.com/@billionairebit/. Follow me if you like (you will find I talk about everything except Cybersecurity...lol). Here is an awesome guide to get you started. https://www.steemithelp.net/quick-start-guide/

Long Live STEEM!
