Steemit.com: Blogging is the new Mining

I just need an address to send it too, but STEEM only uses usernames... I just don't get it.

Your username is your address, try with a small amount first.

Okay, thanks.
I'm just used to having random generated address.

It is a good method to earn money if you have enough knowledge to crypto currencys about . I have friends who make money this way but I didn't dare yet.

Steem is also alot cheaper then it was when it came out. Early investors lost out unless they went viral.

Hey everyone.

I am relatively new to SteemIt.

I was reading this article: https://lunyr.com/article/Steemit and the part about censorship doesn't make sense to me.

I think the author wrote it incorrectly, but I'm not sure.

Is it correct?

No, the author has written right. Steemit is basically a censorship resistant platform, at least from the central point of view. No body can delete what you post on Steemit, not even you. Although, yes, big whales can downvote your posts, and make them kinda hidden, but still not fully hidden. For example, on Facebook, you can delete your posts, facebook can delete your posts. On Steemit, nothing like this can happen.

I have a stupid question.... But I can't figure it out on my own.


If I buy STEEM on Bittrex, how do I transfer it to my SteemIT account?

All I can find is "Buy STEEM" and it takes me to blocktrades...

I just need an address to send it too, but STEEM only uses usernames... I just don't get it.

Your Steemit username is your wallet address. Just go ahead with it. It does not use any random alphanumeric addresses.

Besides your username which can be used as an address for depositing Steem in your Steemit account, you also need "memo key" which can be foun on your profile! Here's a nice post on Steemit which describes all process https://steemit.com/steem/@steempowerwhale/for-newbies-what-is-my-steemit-wallet-address-and-how-can-i-make-a-deposit-visual-step-by-step-help-guide-a-100-steem-power-up !

You could write about other topics as well, not only cryptocurrencies. I used to write a lot of poetry and published it on Steemit. Made around a dollar in total, but it was worth it anyways.

In order to make money through steemit you need to make some followers and also you need to find the new way to address people should do your best. It is so simple for you to make money but really it will take some time to grow your community.

So do you somehow make more steem the more steem you have? Is that how it works? Can someone please help me understand how this works?

That would be considered a Ponzi scheme
Amount of steem doesn't impact how much you will earn. You can power up with that steem and get a higher voting power, but the downside is you won't be able to power down for another 2 years after powering up.

Ok, so having more steem gives me the ability to influence how much other users make by upvoting and so on, but my own earnings from posting, commenting and curating is unaffected? So no long term strategy involves having to buy extra currency to make it, got it! Thanks.

Almost 2 months now since my application for a steemit account but they havent approved it yet, some are saying that your location determines how fast the team will approve you. does that mean that the project is for the elite first world citizens only ?

Doesn't it say that you should log on to some chat and inquire about the progress if it takes more than one week? 2 months sounds unreasonable. I signed up about 24 hours ago, and I'm already getting impatient over not even having received any kind of confirmation email or anything. I really can't see any reason why this should take any more than 5 minutes as soon as you provide the code from the SMS.

This is somehow bizarre to me also. Platforms like this should have a hassle-less signup method but this one seems to have the opposite procedure for it. My friend also signed up for Steemit 5 weeks ago but he still is waiting for the confirmation of a successful signup. I just can't fathom the reason behind these delays. People will not use this project if the first process takes too long compared to the other platforms.

One quick question, do they have a live statistics for its user-base and where we can check it?

What also strikes me as a bit weird is that the username I signed up with shows up as available if I try to sign up again, but I get an error message when I input my phone number, saying it has already been used. So this is kind of sending me mixed signals, some parts of my signup has been registered, other parts have not. Very odd.

Reading the FAQ gave me the impression that I could somehow sign up "manually" by purchasing tokens of their currency and paying some sort of signup fee. This would probably be more instant, but Ḯm not sure what kind of cost we are talking here. If it is just a trivial ammount I'd consider doing that instead.

Any opinions on minnowbooster?
How does delegating to bot compare Vs leasing, income-wise? And how do I undelegate from bot?

I feel like delegating is much more profitable. You cannot undelegate from bot as the delegation is irreversible. You will have to wait until the end of the contract to receive your steem power back.

No, when you lease to someone, you need to wait till the end of contract period, you can undelegated from bot at any time, it's on the front page:

You can always undelegate but will lose the earnings for the current unfinished day

+ there's a cooling off, 7 day period.

Anyhow, I found my answer in FAQ, there's a link for undelegating.

Now there is only bot accounts boosting posts if you pay in advance, Steemit has no real users that share their SP in the site. People either use it for their own posts or delegate to bots.
