- Yes and no. I was already familiar with cryptocurrencies, but STEEM was a major reason why I got hooked.
Started with Bitcoin, cause I head about this cool fancy internet money was making people bank. Got in low, sold high, made a nice profit.
Then, the programmer in me found Ethereum and fell in love. A blockchain... WITH CODE?!?!?! I sunk my profits into CryptoKitties and in the end broke even, luckily.
I had a brief period where I heavy diversified. I invested in BTC, ETH, LTC, SALT ( made a legit nice profit from that one, got out before it went into the shitter ), etc.
While perusing different cryptos to invest into, I stumbled upon Steem. Never before had any other coin got me so interested, so quickly. I think I was only browsing here for less than 3 days before I went & told all my family + friends about it. The social aspect is what got me most interested!
Steem may have not been my "first" love, but it is differently my strongest ;^)
