Some Neat Facts About Steem For Newbies

in #steemit7 years ago

  • Did you know that Steem is spelled with two 'e's instead of with an 'a', because a is the first letter of the alphabet, and being first represents superiority over others, and the founders of Steem wanted to allude to the concept of decentralization of power?
  • One of the first users on the Steem blockchain was Constantine Uchimura, a sailor and Dr. Pepper enthusiast from Somalia. His posts and contributions mysteriously disappeared from the Steem blockchain in late 2016, and no one knows where they went.
  • Steem can actually be converted into literal Steam through a process called "realification", which can only be initiated by sending .02 SBD to @ned with a limerack as the memo. This process helps the environment by converting inefficient digital assets into natural steam which eventually condensates into drinkable water.
  • Every time you send any SBD to @freedom, he sees the transaction and laughs maniacally, and shouts "FREEEEDOOOM!!!"
  • Steem is not just a social media platform, it is also part of a secret project started by the NSA to [REDACTED] nd the alie[REDACTED]!
  • Also, [REDACTED]
  • In addition to using the Steemit.com website, another way to post is to walk outside, stare at the clouds and shout your post into the void.
  • If you really like a post, instead of upvoting and resteeming it, try printing it out and distributing it to friends and family, or strangers on the street!
  • The amount of Steem in circulation will double every 3.5 years. That means by about 2030 there will be too much Steem on the internet and the blockchain will implode. So have fun while it lasts, suckers!!
  • [REDACTED]
  • A fun easter egg on the Steemit.com website: click right above the "promoted" link and then enter your favorite food, and then see what happens ;-P
  • When you transfer SBD to the account of dhouse for no particular reason, the entire platform benefits! So if you don't...doesn't that kind of mean you are destroying this amazing community?? Something to think about.
  • Raccoons are not allowed to post on Steemit. This is an outrage and legal recourse is currently being pursued.
