You sound a bit like my aunt who was quite the top gun in her day, though you're obviously in your prime. Welcome to the site ! It's the first cryptotechnology to successfully monetize content posted by users. It is potentially above and beyond bitcoin and ethereum, though I believe all three cryptotechnologies can co-exist.
Bitcoin has the potential to decentralize governments while ethereum can potentially decentralize corporations while user privacy remains intact.
BTW, I grew up bi-culturally between the US and Japan as I'm half-Japanese. I also composed my first song at age 5, went on to become a known code breaker and hacker by age 14, then went on to discover element 110 (Darmstadtium) on the Periodic Table of Elements at Berkeley, developed one of the top stock market trading track records using my algorithms, published a bestseller on investments, and more recently have been successfully trading volatility ETFs using my VIX Volatility algo as well as trading bitcoin, ethereum, and now steemit using my self-learning, self-evolving algorithms. With the potential for greater volatility in the coming months due to greater political and economic instability, my algos are ready to profit as they did during the great crash of 2008:
I think you'll find the steemit community wildly diverse, creative, intelligent, and mega-talented.

Enjoy your stay !
