How does STEEM work?

in #steemit7 years ago

Steemit pays both the content creators when their work gets upvoted, as well as the people who curate the best content on the site by upvoting others work.
Steemit platform is built on top of a new kind of digital currency called Steem.(Think Bitcoin, which is another kind of digital currency that has been around for a while.)
Every day, new units of the currency are created by the network and distributed to its users, who can exchange these digital currency units for actual real money. And it’s completely free to get started.

     How does Steemit work?

Steemit is similar to other digital currencies. For example, Steemit currency units can be traded, bought, and sold on the open market just like all of the other digital currencies.

Steemit allows for currency mining as well, but it’s not the primary way to earn money. Every day, new Steemit currency units that are created by the network and distributed to the people who engage with the site. The more you engage, the more you get.

People who create content are rewarded for their content. People who upvote content are rewarded for helping to curate the best content available on the site. Commenters who add to the discussions are paid too.
One big difference between Steem and other digital currencies is that there are three different kinds of Steemit currency units.

There is Steem, Steem Power, and Steem Dollars.
