Hey, @llfarms.
I've been wondering since I got here how it's possible that a blockchain primarily considered to be a social media marketing platform, with actual marketers, graphic people, writers, artists, etc., using it, has no strong, cohesive marketing message. You would think it's a no brainer. All the talk of whether or not we are decentralized here, I believe it shows through when it comes to things like this, only not in a good way. Definitely need to work on that, and so I appreciate you asking these questions. I can see already we're starting from some different places, though there are some overlaps beginning to form.
What Is STEEM
Steem is a zero fee transaction, high speed and scalable blockchain with a cryptocurrency of the same name. It currently has social, investing, commercial, gaming and gambling aspects to it, with potential for so much more.
What Does It Do?
It currently brings people together, rewards participation, encourages entrepreneurship, informs, educates, facilitates collaboration and provides investment opportunities.
What Is The Goal?
Ultimately, it's to unite the entire world together through a global digital currency, breaking down the old systems through decentralization, freedom, transparency, privacy, security, low entry and no gatekeepers. The goal is to totally transform civilization as we know it.
What Does It Have To Offer?
Opportunities to improve quality of life through association, engagement, investment, future financial stability, business and more. Whatever can go on a blockchain, STEEM offers the opportunity to do it.
What Is STEEM To Me
I think I pretty much described it with everything above. Right now, though, it's a place where I can create, engage, curate, hangout, learn, earn and invest and hopefully build a better future.
