Contest: How I Got To Know About Steemit || By @jaspichman125

Hello fellow Steemians, I'm glad to participate in this amazing contest organised by @small-ville and @srrebullient in Writers-guild (@writers-guild) community.

How I Joined Steemit
When I heard about Steemit for the first time, I was skeptical. Could it be another get-rich-quick scheme or something more organised and long lasting? I asked myself. A little research that I carried out revealed to me that steemit is being run on a blockchain technology. That’s what caught my interest. I’ve been a big fan of the idea behind blockchain technology: decentralisation.

When my friend @justiceanietie introduced me to Steemit, I was very happy and started blogging immediately. I joined Steemit platform in the month of May 2021.

Challenges you have faced so far

1. Lack of upvotes. Lack of upvotes discouraged me from doing my best. At a time I became disappointed and lost interest in Steemit.
2. Transfer error: I sent 7 Steem to a wrong address

How you see the future of Steemit

1. A growing community of creative people:
Steemit currently boasts of over 1.2M registered users all over the world.
In the next few years, I want to see the number increase to 5M users.

2. Better security: Zero cyber attack
3. Zero Plagiarism: I want to see an increase in quality contents on Steemit in the future. I want to see Steemit bloggers becoming professionals in providing "zero plagiarism " contents.
4. Some features added to the platform:Currently, there's no direct message button on Steemit. I want this feature to be added in the future to enable easy messaging or interactions among Steemit users.

Conclusion
My journey on Steemit so far has been fairly successful. I hope to make giant strides in the future.

I would like to see both STEEM token and Steemit platform scaling new heights and breaking records in the blockchain and cryptocurrency world in the future.

I will actively engage in Steemit promotion.

Thanks for reading through my post. Hope you liked it?
