My boyfriend told me about Steemit and how does it work, I haven't posted yet... but its very interesting...

First post! Tell him you found a STEEMDOLLAR lying on the ground. I've sent one to your account!

Oh Thanks! good start at Steemit!

My boyfriend taught me a lot about steemit and crypto currency in general. I have made great progress on here. It's been fun posting. I don't even use any other social media anymore. Can't wait to see steem progress.

Keep up the good work! I've sent you a STEEM so you can use it however you like.

I found out about steem online watching youtube....I think the platform is so much better than youtube or facebook. I am starting to think crypto currencies are here to stay. steemit has made me start thinking and creating again.
Thanks

Checked out your account and upvoted your stuff. Remember Steemit values new original content over links or copypasta, and I'm looking forward to reading what you come up with! Also sent you a STEEM because you have none and that's sad.

Greg mannarino has a large group that came over to steemit, that's how I learned about it. I wish I had heard earlier about this place. Not making big numbers yet, however I am learning and trying to do something each day.

Welcome aboard. I've transferred 1 extra STEEM to your wallet!

Thank you, it does help on days when you dong get much on rewards.

I bought steem on polo a couple weeks ago. At that time I only knew a little about it. I learned about it. And it's price dropped a good bit. So I signed up and transferred my steem here and powered up. Where it can do something for me. The price went up which is good in the long run. I first heard of crypto during Ron Paul campaign on a website called thedailypaul. A lot of the Ron Paul supporters were and probably still are very knowledgeable about cryptos. But it was too hard to get into back then. So a couple months ago I started re reading up on it and I went to a btc atm a couple hundred miles from where I live, still the closest one. And I managed to get a couple bitcoins when it was a little above a grand. A little later than I would have liked, but early enough. I didn't get as invested as I could though which I regret. I am still buying bits and pieces when I make it to Las Vegas, but the price has almost rise above my ability to invest. At least I have steemit now! I'm going to be buying some steem and turning it to steem power when I get more money. So I. Can help shape and build this great little thing into what it deserves to be. Sorry that was so long. I got sidetracked typing, and don't want to cut anything out. Thanks for helping the minnows like me out. And good luck steeming sir

@drpuffnstuff, lol I bought my first bitcoins at an ATM in Henderson, is that where you got yours, or are there other ATM's in the area.
Your post reminds me of my other failed first attempt at getting BTC. I'll try to remember to let you know when I post it.

I've been to that one if it's at a gas station in a questionable part of town. There's like 15 btc ATMs around Vegas actually. It's the closest place I can go to get some. Looking forward to seeing your post!

Nope this one was in Henderson. I used to live in vegas '67 to '72 and was back there for the first time just this January . Whoa, has it changed. I was staying with relatives and I told them I wanted to go visit our old house. At the time a nice area. He told me I could probably go, just not at night and be aware!

Great post. I think Ron Paul is a Gandalf-level guided wisdom launcher for those with an open mind. Too bad the stupider voices drowned him out. Such is politics though! Have a STEEM and I think you will find this platform in-line with the principles of liberty and free speech.

Thanks. And yes he was the only politician who I consider a hero. He opened my eyes to a whole perspective that had been hidden from me forever in school. And to this day there is very little he said that I don't disagree with. But yes once again, thanks. Look forward to your future posts. Take care

I was introduced to steemit by jeff berwick aka the dollar vigilante. I think steemit is awesome, it gives an oppurtunity to those who had none, literally starting from the bottom. Its amazing that I can earn money just sitting at home wearing sweatpants and simply writing/sharing whatever I like.

Sweatpants are some of my favorite formal attire. It works for morning or evening. Sent you a STEEM so you can have a coffee while you blog in your pyjamas!

Ayee thank you =) Its very generous of you to do this. Once I'm financially stable I'll do the same and help others in need!

Hi well my husband had an account here and he didn't believe in steemit, and I DO, I enjoy the posting, blogging, commenting and the community. I've met so many nice ppl already and what I like about steemit is that they show respect. If this was FB I would have some weird, disrespectful comments. I love steemit! I am here for the long haul and to show him!!! Thanks @stonefood followed and upvoted too. :)

Looks like you're a true believer in Steemit! Sent you a STEEM and remember to help out the next newbies in line because they're starting to believe again!

Thank you @stonefood I believe in paying it forward. I will and thank you for your kindness to the community.

Hey i'm new and haven't even done an intro post yet. I follow a friend on youtube and he mentioned steem and i came to it right before the recent crypto spike. i bought myself 7$ worth of steem the other day just to help get a bit more power going for giggles. No payouts yet from voting as im still that new. I have some btc ether ripple and steem now so just trying to diversify some. Thanks

Now you have been blessed with an extra STEEM! Welcome to the platform, and as they say the more the merrier, right?

Greg Mannarino at @marketreport he broadcasted it on youtube and I loved the idea. I am bringing games conspiracies music and a ton of other topics of my life on this website!

This Greg Marinara sauce guy sounds like a bigshot! Personally I love games music and conspiracies of all kinds so here's a STEEM!

Your a homie i forgot i entered this. He is a bigshot got 50000 ppl on youtube he is a economic person who talks about the markets. This seems like a real good thing. And ill get off your lawn im sorry

I stumbled across someone's comment because how many of us actually read Imgur comments???

Steemit is disrupters creating a better platform. And I absolutely love it!!! The possibilities are limitless.

Thank you for hosting a educational contest!

#steemitin5words disrupters creating a better platform!!!!

Disclaimer: I am just a bot trying to be helpful.

Kudos for having the patience to learn and understand the platform's disruptiveness to gravy trains such as facebook and twitter! Sent you a STEEM to get you started.

Thank you kindly!!! @arsenal49 sent me a buck the other day. I feel so official. :)

You are appreciated.

The Dollar Vigilante on Youtube introduced me to steemit.
I've been dabbling with crypto currencies since 2012, mostly playing around with dust coins, and loosing all my bitcoins at a favorite casino.
But bleeding off my Big Wins and trading for alts that caught my eye for some reason or another.
I like to buy a Million at a time, and dream some day 1 will break $1 :-)
I'm having a bunch of fun with steemit, and real happy to be here.
I've got a ton of life stories and philosophies to post about
Just no followers yet to enjoy them - but that will change little by little, post by post :-)
I'm a little concerned at the moment to let fly my best stories, that will just enter and move down the chain with no audience :-(
I cleaned out a old Blockchain wallet to buy steem here is my rant:
https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@codypanama/bitcoin-i-m-divorcing-you-i-love-you-but-will-no-longer-hold-you
I moved 10 BTM here already and will move these funds too if they ever clear....Fuck ........Excuse me, developing turrets maybe LOL
The casino I play at gives tons of coins away, and best of all...the owner pays the transfer fee's. I'm going to quit gambling and top up my steem power :-)
Thanks for a chance to do that here
Steem on
woot woot.jpg

Yeah man, STEEM is so much better than Bitcoin. It took me a while to realize it, but the truth was right there in front of my eyes. Here's a STEEM and spend it forward!

Right on ! Thank you my friend I will :-)
I love giving away coins with little give-aways and contest !
Woot Woot
I got a full head of Steem, now just need to get it to my wallet LOL

do you know anything about steemed.com and exploring transactions on the blockchain ? Like steemed.com/tx/" tx Number"
I had this:
https://steemd.com/tx/be3aa8d76e8420ada0898d6b6e348a1079c9f7f2
Very nice gift :-) but I can't see it in my account numbers ?
It shows in history but that's all, I don't even know how to get a transaction number, the sender provided that link above.
Can I pull 1 of my account #'s and get a complete history like other coins ?
Thanks in advance :-)

Cody: You can check your wallet https://steemit.com/@codypanama/transfers here

Ok whole new animal this coin is LOL
No access to my Public key ? like other coins, that matches my private key, just @codypanama.
Back to school with me hehe
I just checked Bitrex and no private key just @codypanama to Bitrex with a memo number attached.
I'll figure it out, if and when I'm at $100,000 value, I'll sell $10k and have a Canadian Vacation with my lovely Panamanian wife, she Loves it there, and hasn't met all my family yet :-)
a fellow sent me 1 steem tonight and there is was in the wallet
but the 17+ steem power sent to me never changed a thing ?
I turned the steem to steem power ( power up ) that worked fine, I want to reach curator status asap. now im at :
27.608 STEEM
(+106.124 STEEM) <what is this ?
so much to learn :-) LOL

It's not easy man, certainly not as easy as eating mangos and papayas all day in panama! Under the beautiful sun!

Steem power or SP allows you influence the outcome of posts. I upvote all comments that I like and am usually able to give about 1 cent USD. not bad huh? You can power down SP into liquid STEEM to spend it or give it away. It takes 13 weeks in 13 equal doses.

The 106.124 is delegated STEEM power. it comes from your sponsor as a noob.

I am not newbie but whatever, I came to know about steemit from forum. Then joined and never looked at other social media since lol

Czesc my friend. I feel the exact same way. Witcher 3 is awesome. I've sent you a STEEM!

Thanks bud!

@stonedfood , appreciate you helping newcomers like me. I found out about cryptocurrencies online while browsing some articles. I'm new to this world. Chanced upon a steemit article that brought me to the site, and it didn't take me a second to decide to signup. I believe cryptocurrency is definitely the future, and steemit is revolutionary.

That's great! I think you deserve to have some of that crypto you've been wanting. Sent you 1 STEEM and hope you see the value in this platform beyond just getting paid! It's decentralized blockchain social media!

thanks! of course, i see the larger picture and meant to say steemit is a revolutionary social media site. the community here is incredible and the sense of belonging is insane. good day!

My friend from work is an ANARCHIST! Of course, he's into crypto currency. So i researched blockchain, bitcoin etc... he said if I was interestedin a social media/blockchain hybrid. Well Im also very irresponsible with money. I need some steem dollars SON. Please fund my Cryptolifestyle..

Yeah man I used to have a wallet with 5 bitcoins in it that I forgot the key to. So I know those feels man.
Have a STEEM!!!

Hi, thank you very much for this initiative :)
I met Steemit through Bitcoin, researching how to make money through this new reality on the Internet and in my search I came to this great platform called Steemit which has been very important in my life since my current lifestyle is not Good I want to make a change of it for my family and for me, I have been learning to use the platform through very good post from other users and friends of this community and also reading the help section in Steemit, I have been cultivating. Steem has seen me see a short-term solution to seeing financial changes in our family home in the times we are so I have drawn a great smile full of happiness that there is this strong and united community that allows us Improve our living conditions and thereby overcome us as people :)

I've laughed, cried, excited in general with the posts that day with day I read in Steemit and much of which inspire me to generate some different content that shows quality for all, there are post that make me travel to places in photos that I see , I can travel the world through 100 post is a great experience for me to belong to Steemit and I want to continue infinite time here: D

Greetings!!

Luming, very good post and I love the positive energy. I sent you a STEEM and I am looking forward to reading all your new posts!

thank you very much for everything, a big hug :)

My uncle told me about it. I thought it would be fun to try. I posted my first story Today. I'm definitely going to have fun with it.
Only 3% of US currency is physical and the rest is digital. However crypto currency is giving the power to the people instead of the federal banks. Which is not owned by the U.S. (its private).
This is not a fad....its a big deal and I want to be involved as much as possible.

Man your uncle sounds cool! Mine's an old Polish dude that drinks like a fish! Sent you a STEEM lucius and look forward to your participation in this epic adventure known as Steemit!

thanks so much!

I had heard about Steem from Jeff Berwick (The Dollar Vigilante). I have been on for a week and have enjoyed it's content. It is amazing how many avenues you can go down. I produce the 4:20 Market Report that is the news and market movement of the Canadian Cannabis industry. I feel it is a growth industry (yes, I know) and has great investment potential.

As a Canadian pot smoker this is very interesting to me! Sent you a steem and hope to keep in touch ;)

Thank you very much and I hope you enjoyed your May 24!

Learned about Steemit through fellow crypto Youtubers. Cryptocurrency has strengthen my belief in the potential of human tribes and Steemit is relevant because it allows the community to set the price of information.

It allows the community to set the price of information... wow. You ever heard of a penny for your thoughts? Well here's a STEEM for yours!

This community is the best. People who want others to succeed for the sake of the future of this place. It's brilliant. It's like the internet minus the trolls. What a novel idea, lol.
This is my 7th day here, do I still qualify for this contest?
Either way, have fun y'all.

Whatever man I sent you a STEEM anyway! Hang on to it!

Niceeee.
Thanks dude. Much appreciated :)

I really don't know how I have found Steem. But maybe bitcoin have something to do with my Steem Account. But I really love the idea of Steemit ! So i decided to join Steemit. Now I want to improve my english skills. There aren't good. And I think I learn much faster when I write my thinking in english. I also think that Steem could be the new Facebook. And when people will accept Cryptocur. than they want to be here and earn my by writing some lines :)

Thank you and enjoy your week :)

Welcome aboard. Guten Tag. I wish you a nice stay here on Steemit. Hope to read more of your posts and I think I agree. Writing is the best way to learn!

Sent you a STEEM, don't spend it right away! Ich habe dir einen STEEM geschickt.

Will will keep your steem until the Steem-price is worth 100$ :P

I joined here exactly a week before. My friend told me about here. And i really like hanging here. Its nice to see people liking your posts and it gives you steems.
