In the beginning of March 2017, while I was doing my research about cryptocurrency and the blockchain technology, I came across STEEM for the first time.
The project's past didn't have the best record when it came to graphic charts in volume and growth trough its life but it possessed something unique than any other project in the cryptocurrency world. It was the first and only social media platform that was based on the unbelievable blockchain technology that I just had learned. "Wow", I said. At that time I only had $400 available so I bought $200 first and I registered to the page. I posted as a new community member and the next day I bought the rest of my available cash. 
There is a story about the guy who painted the first Facebook office, about how instead of a $750.00 payment, he took the same amount equivalent in Facebook shares. By 2016, his shares were worth $298 million dollars so my reaction was GREAT, STEEMIT has way more technology and way better platform than those guys so I started telling people about it and as of now, I have introduced at least twenty people to the platform.
Listen to this. STEEMIT will be bigger that Facebook by the year 2027 and STEEM will be the number one used cryptocurrency in the social media market. I will be somewhere sunny, near a body of water surrounded by the people I LOVE THE MOST and with a couple million of STEEM in my wallet, writing a post for the STEEMIT community.
I HOPE YOU ALL GET THERE AS WELL 😀 😃 😄
