First congrats on your 2k sp.
I first get to know about steemit in a youtube video .That was probably December, 17.First i thought this is a scam because i didn't knew how cryptocurrency works till then.but later i researched about steemit and found that it is legit indeed. then i opened an account on steemit in March, 18. And still i am with steemit trying to grow myself . i think I will be succeeded soon.
wish me luck.
