The Steemit.com platform has been revolutionizing social media for some time now by rewarding content creators with cryptocurrency (STEEM, SBD and Steem Power) for the posts that they publish (based on the popularity of their posts). The platform is especially popular amongst the crypto community and has become an excellent source for relevant and up-to-date news on the space.
Content creators are joining Steemit everyday in order to reap a reward for something that they would otherwise do for free (or close to free), post content on the internet and/or social media.
