Steem is a cryptocurrency that is generated through the creation of content in a blockchain-based social media platform called Steemit, in which everyone can earn simply by creating and curating content. This means the cryptocurrency may, for some, be a way earn extra cash, while for others it may be a way to monetize growth. New artists, for example, can use it as a platform that helps them support themselves.
