At first I thought Steemit was a SCAM
Hey everybody! I've been seeing posts from Steemit lately and was wondering if it's a scam site or not. However, upon digging deeper into the site, I found out that it was not.
In the modern time, whenever you see blog posts with dollar signs indicating money, we can easily thought that something fishy is going on. Some of the questions that come to our mind are "is it real? or was it just a ploy to get us to join?"
It took me almost two weeks before I finally decided to join in. And the funny thing about it is I only joined because I have to receive a payment from a member of another forum using Steem. Funny eh?
Anyway, since I'm here on Steemit, I'll make sure that I make the most out of it. I won't hold back and just enjoy every step of the process. And hopefully, this hobby becomes a new source of passive income.
How are you doing today? Let me know in the comments section below. :) See ya around!
