MEET-UP IN UYO CITY AT IBOM TROPICANA: THE STEEM BLOCKCHAIN AND STEEMIT 101

in #meet-up6 years ago (edited)

HEY GUYS, I ENJOYED ANOTHER MEET-UP SESSION AT THE IBOM TROPICANA , ORGANIZED BY @FOLLY-PANDY AND @UBONGJ .

The aim of the meet-up was to familiarize ourselves with the steem blockchain and the steemit platform.
We were about eight who arranged it and only one of us was not on steemit (good for him as he was highly saturated with a lot of information).IMG_20180316_145014.jpg

Ignorance is a disease but we gave our Steemit ignorance the antidote which was the Meet-Up.

"Blockchain which is the public ledger system that's records all transactions ever made and the data are distributed in a database. Each time a database I'd updated, all the updates are done in blocks then, blocks are produced regularly and joined together hence the name Blockchain"

They enlightened us on the things we see but do not understand and things we feel are supposed to be there but are not there, they also corrected our impression, told us why so many things where the way they where and what Steemit Is doing to solve them. They told us other ways of avoiding most challenges.

He also talked about #BitShares.

We had a session of question and answer. Amongst the questions where:

Who are witnesses?
why don’t we get notified on who follows us?
What is the meaning of SBD?

I got to learn so many new things about steemit.
So It happened like a flashlight, it came on and went off but the fresh thing about the meetup was that we went home with so many new things about Steemit.
