I. Omit "that."
90% of the time "that" is not needed.
Example:
"Bitcoin is a decentralized coin that gives users privacy. I think that every US citizen deserves privacy. Rights are often taken under the false presumption of security. For example, the 911 act."
"Bitcoin offers privacy and decentralization. Every US citizen deserves privacy. Rights are often taken under the false presumption of security. For example, the 911 act."
II. Stop using I think.
It adds no value.
Example:
"I think steemit's platform is revolutionary."
"Steemit's platform is revolutionary."
3. Stay away from words ending in-ing
Example:
"Blockchain is experiencing growth. Blockchain's future looks promising"
"Blockchain companies continue to grow. Blochain's future looks bright."

Cut out unnecessary words. People have short attention spans, and readers value time.
5. Shrink your opening sentence and paragraph
My title was straight to the point. My opening sentence was short.
Hopefully that helps, Steem on!
