# I just dusted off a few bitcoins and traded them for Steem and then powered up! Why would I do such a thing?

1 The community here is AWESOME! I'm not the greatest writer or blogger in the world but my time here at Steemit has been lots of fun! I've learned a lot and seen some really cool photography. 

2 Bitcoin is starting to bore me. I've been hodling for a while and I basically never use it. I used it once to purchase coffee int he real world and that's it. What I like about steem is I use it every day to interact with you fine people on Steemit. 

3 I think steem has the potential for huge growth in the coming months. I'm really excited to see where it goes and I want a seat on the rocket ship! Imagine the first post that makes $100,000 or even $1,000,000! The mainstream media won't be able to ignore a story like that!

Steem on y'all!
