I got into Bitcoin in 2011. I built this mining array.
I have learned a lot about bitcoin, and I can still say that I think Steemit is just as revolutionary as Bitcoin, and in some ways even more. The same people that control our currency also control our media. Blockchain technology has the potential to make the corporate media obsolete now. Who wants to be a Facebook zombie and get bombarded with ads, when steemit pays you for blogging and trolling? Not me. Like the author of this post, I am elated to be taking my time away from Facebook, and I have no doubt that others will feel the same way. I have a decentralized alternative to banks and media now, and I freakin love it. I can't wait to see what blockchain technology brings us next.
You do realize Bitcoin is what is keeping Steemit afloat? 98% of STEEM value comes from Bitcoin investors.

There are two people in my life (so far) that I have been trying to get into Bitcoin for years that are now on Steemit. Neither of them, despite my years of preaching at them, had ever made a Bitcoin wallet or executed a transaction until they got into Steemit. Steemit is the killer app that Bitcoiners have been prophesying for years. This brings new people to cryptocurrency and blockchain technology, and that is good for everyone. In my mind, Steemit is just as valuable as Bitcoin, and maybe even more so.
