You could have set up a steemit account by going to https://anon.steem.network . It would let you pay by LTC or BTC a nominal amount (currently .004 BTC or .3 LTC). It would let you be anonymous. So before you get too far, you could set that up. Otherwise, enjoy!
Great tip! I am going to feel things out using this account before I spend the ~$25, but that sounds like a better option! If I do that, do I need to disable this account somehow, or are you able to have more than one account?
You can have multiple accounts.
Great, that makes things much easier. Thanks again for your help!
