May 30 Days Writing Challenge - Day Six: What Is Your Main Reason For Staying On Steemit?

in steemit •  7 years ago  (edited)

Welcome to the sixth day of the May 30 days writing challenge. If you don't know what this challenge is about, please have a look at the introductory post. Also, at the end of each article I will post the links to all the posts in the challenge (if you're joining the challenge, I encourage you to do the same). Also, if you join, don't forget to tag your post with #challenge30days and also leave a comment with the link of your post, so I can evaluate if you're one of the 3 lucky Steemians that will get a full upvote from me.

Today I traveled almost all day, so I barely got the time to open my laptop. I was almost ready to skip this day from the challenge, but then I thought this would not be a very good example, so I picked something very easy.

What Is Your Main Reason For Staying On Steemit?

In one word: curiosity.

I'm curious about the people I will find here. I'm curious about what I will read here, especially related to crypto currencies. I'm curious about the price of STEEM. I'm curious about the future of this experiment.

Curiosity is a very unique feature of us, human beings. It makes us lose the comfort zone and keep poking at the unknown, sometimes bearing the risk of completely compromising the current status quo. And yet, curiosity is so, so rewarding.

Now it's your turn. Please link your post in the comments, so I can have a look at it.

Wanna know when you're getting paid?

I know the feeling. That's why I created steem.supply, an easy to use and accurate tool for calculating your Steemit rewards

It's free to use, but if you think this is a useful addition, I'd appreciate your witness vote.

Thank you!

I'm also curious of what is going to happen in the near future. Maybe Steemit will go viral and many people will join and blog for a piece of the cake. I believe in this project and I'm confident that it will keep growing stronger and stronger.

I'm curious to see what this platform can become. There's never been anything quite like it, so predictions are hard. I'm hoping it didn't get corrupted when it could be helping so many people

Nice story there @dragosroua. Steemit is really the place to be. I hope to write my story soon too.

I missed the first few days of this challenge, but I'm really excited to jump in now! Here's my main reason for staying on Steemit.

Goodluck @helenoftroy. I am going to join with you ^^

That's great! Thanks @lenancie :)

curiosity but also lack of censorship. i'm so tired of political correctness, forced ads, having to put up with suggestions and questions. Steemit isn't perfect but mostly free of the bad things that other platforms love to inflict on their users.

Thanks @dragosroua for this project ,it is awesome .Am also curious to know where steemit is heading

Steemit for me is a project of life, I have a lot of hope on this project, it's been a year that I know steemit and I think it's the beginning of a revolution in social networks that I do not want miss it

Curiosity embed a lot haha your answer is so genius. I thought you were going to say SBD
Here is my entry
@dragosroua

My answer was similar to yours. I took a little different angle on it though.

Pure stubbornness. Oh, wait. I meant Determination. Yeah, determination. I love this platform and so desperately want it to succeed and I can't see how I can want that without supporting it myself by participating. So yeah, I'm just plowing ahead and hoping for the best while I'm at it. In the mean time I'm making great connections and honing my writing skills.

Hello @dragosroua. Thanks for this challenge. Here is my entry for the sixth day. https://busy.org/@tolustx/may-30-days-writing-challenge-day-six-what-is-your-main-reason-for-staying-on-steemit.

I really like the question :)

I think the content here is really interesting than any other platform , and also you can share ideas with other people from all the world.

Very Excellent Publication Thank you for the valuable participation I liked this excellent publication so much that it has been glamorous and will remain so

Curiosity is something we all should never lose. I wouldn't have thought of that myself (in terms of what has kept me here), but that's a great response.

That was an easy question. Thank you for that. busy over here as well.

My reasons for sticking to Steemit, alongside a Paint drawing of a Mario game (it makes sense in the context)

It is generous of you to have organised this contest. It will go along way in helping steemian both minnows and newbies like myself. I will like to participate in the contest.

I find it astonishing that I forgot to put the link in my comment. I voted for the post last night (it was 3 o'clock AM and probably fatigue was to blame) but I forgot to comment. You are curious and I want an income from online activities: https://steemit.com/steemit/@bluemoon/may-30-days-writing-challenge-6-what-is-your-main-reason-for-staying-on-steemit

Oh perfect! Didn't see this when I made my post yesterday. Right on time!

Here's mine. 😊

Obviously you copied the intro from Saturday into yesterday's and today's posts. You might want to correct them as those are the 6th and the 7th day. Thank you. :)

Today is an easy one as you said, but still interesting to read the answers.
Here's mine

Main reason for staying on steemit is the knowledge we get here on steemit. We learn all the different types of things here and the information about crypto currency. On top of that the rewards are enough to keep us loyal to Steem

Got in earlier today :)

I'm too busy here to be curious! I keep my blinders on as much as I can and just hope the place survives and thrives.
