I am in love with Steemit! After watching the interview with Jeff Berwick where I got to listen to and absorb the concept that founders Ned Scott and Dan Larimer developed and reading all kinds of material about it, I am 100% on board and ignited about this platform and the concept that Steemit is based on.
This is a short video where I explain WHY Steemit is so powerful an idea, why you'd be smart to pay attention to the Anarchist voices on Steemit and to follow their content, and why this is rooted in basic truths of human psychology (which is what makes it so sound an idea).
I am already a huge fan of cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin, and this is a brilliant economic idea built on the blockchain technology.
I love you all, for whatever value you are adding here in the community, I sincerely mean that.
Much love from your friendly neighborhood Dragon!
WOW. Excellent description of steemit and comparison with other platforms. I wish I could save this but a bookmark will do for now.
I have a new go-to video to show to my curious friends now!
This is why I have left facebook years ago and after stumbling onto Steemit I have completely forgotten about all others, check my reddit account for instance: www.reddit.com/r/acidyo
What have those karma points gotten me so far? Nothing, I can't even get any attention to any of my posts from it, as you can see.
This is one of the biggest "killer app" revolutions with blockchain technology. Really exciting times ahead, will make sure to follow you now that the feature is finally live! :)

It's so true! This platform is amazing, the community is delightful, and the anarchist contingent is rapidly growing :-)

A great summary of the intention and usefulness of Steemit, both for spreading ideas and for rewarding people who produce stuff that other people appreciate and find value in.

Yeah it was kind of haphazardly thrown together for this, cause I'm still a noob at editing but I did put hours of effort into it. I just am not a pro yet. :)

You did very well. Much better than I could on a video. I have a habit of lowering my voice when videoed or speaking in front of people. Trust me, this video looks very well thought out and your enthusiasm is very evident because of your knowledge in these topics.

Thus far, I am truly enjoying this platform. I've not seen anything remotely close to what Steemit has to offer. I especially value the fact that the platform was founded and created by fellow anarchist. Here is a place where we can share ideas, create original content and genuinely be compensated for our efforts. I'm glad the place is here for those who are interested, and I am surely suggesting to others to join in and create!

Very thorough explanation of Steemit's mission. I think a lot of people were just so eager to get on it, myself included, that everyone got discouraged when they didn't immediately "strike it steem rich". To call it a scam, is obviously a bit presumptuous and I think if everyone made $15,000 the first day, that argument would have been valid. Value-based platforms are the best platforms. The producers get rewarded and that's the way it should be. Thanks Amanda!

@dragonanarchist I've just heard of steemit last night this is the first post I've read, the first video I've watch, and my very first comment. I just want that everything that you just said really hit home with me and resonated with me in a way that I find difficult to describe. This is is exactly what I've been looking for, i suppose it's time to start saving the world

The simplicity is what I like. People who provide valuable content, receive value from others that appreciate their work.
The anarchist element is also an attraction, a true freedom of speech and a currency outside of the control of governments, powered purely by the people's passion and the value this gives it. A VERY powerful thing!
