STEEM


Steem is a cryptocurrency used to power the Steemit social media platform. Authors and their curators have major roles in the Steemit blockchain. Steemit rewards their users for their contributions with STEEM, SP and SBD.


STEEM POWER


SP (Steem Power) is a measure of the influence that a user has in the Steemit network. The more the STEEM POWER a user possess, the more the user can influence posts and comments.


SBD


SBD (Steem Blockchain Dollars) is an utility token on Steemit. Steemit rewards its users for contributing to the Steemit platform with STEEM, SP and SBD.

Importance Memo when transferring STEEM from Steemit wallet to an Exchange wallet. Is a memo essential for transferring STEEM from Exchange wallet to your Steemit wallet?

Memos are very important in performing such transaction as transferring STEEM from Steemit wallet to an exchange wallet because it something were to actually go wrong during such transfer, then the memo would help the validators of such transaction know that it really was you.
Transferring STEEM from your own exchange wallet to your Steemit wallet doesn't necessarily need a memo, since there's no need to verify a transaction of a cryptocurrency that's literally yours.

Optimizing mining rewards using TRX in the Tron Ecosystem


In Steemit, TRON rewards are usually deposited in the Steemit TRON wallet. A few weeks back I downloaded TronLink Pro and linked it with my Steemit Tron wallet. Now, I can maximize my use of these assets using these different Decentralized apps.

In this example, TRON was staked in trust wallet to produce interest that can be claimed into the TRON wallet.

I could also swap my TRON for NFT tokens or any other cryptocurrency that's available on sun.io. These are few out of several ways TRON rewards can be maximized.
