I have no idea.

Hi. I'm trying to check out 3speak, but to even have an avatar, I'm supposed to pay money or earn it, so I'm making this post because I'm told it can give me enough "steem" to use the Creator Studio in 3speak. I must admit, I'm extremely skeptical of cryptocurrency-based websites, they all seem very shady, many of them want me to install software from untrusted sources. I have no intention on making money on 3speak, I just want a reasonable place to post videos, so here's my introductory post.

Welcome to Steem, Kizzume! I am replying to this post from steemit.com - 3speak is built on the Steem blockchain, which host many different websites. You can think of Steem as a decentralized database that is immutable, and anyone can use that data to build their own website. Your account here can never be banned or even shadow banned. To upload or an avatar or so anything on Steem you need resource credits, 3speak is no different. Resource credits are basically your “land” on the blockchain where you can post what you want and it’s yours, forever. In the very near future we as users can delegates our unused resource credits, so users will no longer need any Steem or recourse credits to post to the blockchain, the burden will be on the apps to provide those resource credits, not the users. Take a look around, you can even play games on Steem, like www.steemmonsters.com. Steem is owned and operated by the users, there is no ceo, we literally run this place with our stake weighted votes and un-censorable opinions. If you have any question feel free to reach out. I’m going to send you a little Steem to get started on 3speak so you cans see if you like it or not. Cheers and thanks again for giving Steem a try.

Brother, that's about the most awesome response that could have been given. Im glad I read the comments before typing up my own version of what you already had written. Thanks for the help you and information! We all need to do our part to help spread understanding about our amazing chain. And you are doing awesome!

Welcome @kizzume. So you've done the hard part and got through the labyrinth that is the account creation process. I know you were interested in 3Speak, but if you don't want to pay the 30 something Steem to get started there you can post on plenty of different applications.

I have been utilizing this Steem block chain for almost two years now. I am not the internet savvy type, but one thing i have learned about the whole steem ecosystem is that it is the single best place to store anything you never want to lose. This is the purpose i have recently invested heavily into this chain and i am also in the middle of creating an amazing product for every one to use that is also based on the Steem block chain. I have a discord for people who are new to our awesome community. It is a place you can get any question answered(sometimes it takes a minute) and get any assistance you may need. I would like to help you be able to name your next post, "I know alot".

Welcome to the Steem blockchain. Enjoy your stay.

Join one of the many steem discord servers to talk to other steemians. Steem Chat or Steem Speak.

3speak is by far the best video publication platform. It does cost a subscription fee, but I have found it well worth it and have made it back each month.

Welcome to Steem!

Steem has a learning curve, so feel free to ask around if you have questions.

Enjoy your stay!
