To understand what Steem is we must first understand what is a CryptoCurrency..
- is a digital asset designed to work as a medium of exchange that secures the transactions and and enables you to control the creation of additional units of the currency -

Blockchain is the underlying technology behind cryptocurrencies. Here is a quick 2 minute video on blockchain:
The very first crypto currency was Bitcoin, created in 2009 and ever since the market has been growing exponentially.. with many alternative coins coming out..
I have never been so excited as the last time that Bitcoin was at $500, Ripple sitting around 2 cents and Ethereum being around $10.
We have recently experienced a HUGE BOOM .. for the ENTIRE crypto currency market
Totalling over 100 billion USD on June 29th, 2017!

And of course, huge rise in Bitcoin, Ripple, and Ethereum prices..
$2,570 for Bitcoin, 23 cents for Ripple and $313 for Ethereum.
