I have not been able to convince anybody to start, or even try using Steemit, unfortunately :( God knows I've tried.. Even telling them I made money on here 'out of nothing' ... I even know people who have contacts in Africa, and I keep telling them to pass the information about Steemit on to the Africans so they can get onboard as the money is probably quite significant to them. But nobody seems to want to listen... Not even getting to the part where I can explain to them about where the money comes from.
It's 100% the same thing as back when the internet was new. People have this 'cryptocurrency is too confusing and difficult to understand' attitude like they used to have when you tried to get people to use e-mail. It's sad, really.

It's Bitcoin all over again.
Oh well, it's this kind of resistance that is necessary if we're ever to have a "moonshot."
