And if one were to look into coding for the blockchain, do you have any recommendations for which language would be most benefitial to learn (whether or not I wind up trying my hand at coding for steemit or another platform).
I know many banks are taking blockchain tech into consideration and a few have already implemented them More Banks Are Trying Out Blockchains For Fund Transfers or are trying them out.
I think, if you know C++ well, it's no problem to learn code in any of specialized languages, such as Solidity or Python for Ethereum etc.. I know nothing about Steem coding, though.
