To Loathe and Love Steemit. THE RETURN OF AN EARLY ADOPTER (INTRO).

in #steemit8 years ago


So I gave up on Steemit after a few months and making a few thousand bucks.

In many ways I regret just walking away from it all and not staying on top of what the heck has been going on because now, I have no clue what Steemit has grown into.

No doubt about it there has been some growth. Maybe not in the price wise of things but obviously many changes have been made since I first joined and dabbled with this new supposed "Facebook" of cryptocurrency.

I should get back to the drawing board.

Or whatever the heck that means. No, but seriously, there are alot of new things on here that are foreign to me. 

When I first joined Steemit, I must admit, it was a boatload of fun. I had no clue what i was doing aside from the fact that if I posted a few cool things and gave some stories of my life, there was a tiny dollar symbol underneath that post that would increase in value.

$3,500 Dollars Later.

Yup, one of those posts somehow generated a whopping fistful of buckaroos. I was blown away. After numerous posts later and some heavy hustling on my part to achieve that payout from the platform again, obviously it did not happen. I kept trying by any means. Writing life stories, posting dumb pictures, whatever I could do it just wasn't working. That's when I called it quits. But now, I see everyone who has stuck with the platform and what it has been doing for them and I must say it seems to have been positive overall. Yeah, nobody is getting those huge payouts like early on but there is some consistent flow of crypto cash being made.

Final Thoughts?

I'm going to give the platform another go around this time. Maybe not as much as before but it can't hurt to slap a new post up every once in a while and if it can get me some steem-bitcoin then that will be cool. 

I think I will stick around.


TO BE CONTINUED


Sort:  

I usually give up on internet projects after a short time, but somehow I like Steemit and think it just might be a breakthrough for me, moneywise in the not so distant future. So I'm here nearly every day, upvoting and commenting as my articles aren't so good, so far results have not been great but I am moving along so i'm not complaining. Of course some things have not been to my liking but what the hell I've always been cranky and a lot of things upset me, so I don't make a big deal of these things.

In all honesty steemit is an awesome platform. I guess you can say I got a little greedy and was chasing that big payout again instead of just enjoying it for what it is and whatever happens, happens. Good Luck, Keep at it and thanks for the comment.
