I came to steemit because I see the censorship of fb, youtube, media etc and at least here what we post will not be taken down.

And the ability to earn what could possibly become the future? Wow

Thanks. I agree and feel exactly the same.

Of course it'd be fantastic to make a bunch of money...🤗 but even if steemit were not tied to crypto I'd still be here. I've lived on fb & youtube (not so much twitter) for a couple of years now but never made/uploaded my own videos before. It feels free here. Trending is truely what's trending here, not manufactured 'trending'. How dare all these people manipulate our voices like that! They're too arrogant to realize that 'doing your part to make the world a better place' does not mean censor all other thought/speech that does not conform to 'their' standards. The Left has zero concept of honesty. And the hypocracy is atrocious. Never met more judgemental people in my life.

because bitcoin is a future so every one want to invest in it

Did you see Saudi Arabia just created a new coin? https://steemit.com/dtube/@julzee/tyhkw2eq

Sure would be cool to have a U.S. crypto.

Do you realise how many people have never heard of bitcoin or cyptocurrency? No one I know has ever heard of it. They look at me like I'm being suckered or something when I try to get them to create a steemit account. I just got my mother and son to sign up. They probably won't be very active but wtf? I'm going to try to get my son to upload his xbox game play. He's super good at these war games. Even won 1st place in his first ever contest. Won $100. ..lol

That's so cool. You should get him to create a steem account so he can document his game play. A lot of people like that.

I came to steemit because youtube was giving me the economic high hard one! No lube. Now Im trying to learn about bitcoin but I'm so behind. Im knoda overwhelmed.

I know about nothing re: crypto but it looks worthwhile to me. I mean tied to an actual valuable social platform like this. I've only invested $40 of my own money and that's fine with me. I'm not willing at the moment (nor do I have more to spend/risk) but I read somewhere that if you would have owned $100. In bitcoin 7 years ago? Today you'd have over 30M$! If steemit does even a fraction I'd be happy as a pig in mud...:D

You have a good point. There are other crypto's worth investing into. Like EOS, who also created steemit. They could possibly be the next bitcoin, so why not invest $100 into it. You gotta keep learning more and more about crypto. It is so so important right now to know about this new technology. Plus, they say, never invest what you're willing to lose. Learn by going to youtube and searching for a step by step tutorial on investing a little into other cryptos. Steemit is a great start. Keep going !

I kind of wish I would have left a little in bitcoin. I originally bought bit coin and transferred it into steem. Found out it would have been smarter to buy ethereum instead and transfer that. Oh well I'm learning.

Yeah educate me on this. I have no idea what eos is. I'm thinking of throwing $20 here & there just in case ya know. Even $20 is better than nothing. Did you see my post on Sophia? https://steemit.com/dtube/@julzee/tyhkw2eq If SA is investing then seems like $20 there wouldn't hurt eh? Is the actual coin called singularity? And how would I buy some?

It just takes time. Keep learning and it'll keep making more and more sense. You're not behind at all. This is just the beginning.

BTC is creating a trustless option to the fiat system.
