This was written really good, simple and precise.
The type of content we need for new users here who get lost in this complex Sea of Steem Blockchain :)
I resteemed this for visibility & will definitely use it to help out newcomers :)
Thank you man, you are appreciated.
P.S. Check out my message on Discord when you find Time, I'd be really grateful
Thanks for the mention @kennyskitchen. This is helpful guide for newbies to get going . You gave some great examples of areas where people can start posting and even porn! thanks again for the support.
Thanks :-) One of the things I love about Steemit is the massive variety of content... and if history has shown us anything, it's that the platform/medium that where the porn goes, is the one that wins!
nice information
Thanks
Very strong and intuitive straight to the point post, you see it's steemians like you who make our community great. With your time and energy it makes sense that your post is worthwhile keep it up. Oh and for the steemians that are new please stay focused and have a good time doing what you do best
Thank you! I love helping smooth the transition process onto Steemit for new folks, since it is so very non-intuitive, haha!
Very much this!
This would help new users familiarize themselves in Steemit. One thing I would always say to new users is to know how to use steemit bots. They should really know about that.
I congratulate you! a very detailed content on the platform, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us, the smaller fish. I will read everything you have published, it is quite interesting to keep moving forward in the work
Thanks, this is one that's been on my list to write for quite some time :-)
Good luck with that, haha! I've published a LOT since joining Steemit
Highly rEsteemed!
Thanks Frank!
Thank you for the said information coz I'm still new to steemit and want to learn more of this.
Good job. Resteemed.
Thank you!
Terimakasih untuk posting yang sangat bermanfaat ini, salam kenal buat semuanya
I must admit that this is one of the rarest posts I've read from start to bottom
Steemworld is trully amazing. Didn't even know there are such helpful tools out there
Glad you found value in it, and hope it was worth your time!
I've definitely been quite happy with SteemWorld since discovering it.
Do you mind if I link to this in my new user guide??
Go for it :-)
Excellent, thanks!
This is excellent Kenny! I’m getting there and this is very helpful.
Thanks Adam! Definitely one of my most requested pieces, I'm so glad I finally got it up :-)
Hey thanks for the summary. Very helpful.
Can you explain how this works? I have not heard of it and I also never got any payout (ok I guess I also hold way too little SP got get any). Thanks!
SteemPower is simply a calculation of your vests, and how much steem they are worth. Vests become worth more STEEM every day, so if you have 1 million vests, then right now they're worth just under 500 Steem, but in a year they will be worth much more. There are no payouts or anything, the number just constantly goes up. Here is the current rate, and up in the article the word vests links to my 2 Minute Steemit Tip all about how that works.
Thanks so much @kennyskitchen! Really appreciate this post as a 4hour Steemian :)
Welcome to the platform! Blessings on your journey; remember to just be yourself, have no expectations, and practice perseverance.
Thanks for the advice .. but gees "practice perseverance" for an ADHD me? Oh boy .. need to work doubly hard on that! :P :P
This is great, I've been doing a weekly post welcoming and reintroducing new steemians on board, and will definitely be putting a link on there for this post, it's clear and direct in an otherwise crowded ocean, where so many can feel overwhelmed, Thank you @kennyskitchen

I'm brand new to the platform and your post is insanely helpful!! So many resources, I'll be down this steemit rabbit hole all night (or all weekend). Thank you!
wow! this is very insightful and helpful to new users of steemit
a job Well-done
Hi Kenny, thanks for sharing. I'm new to cryptocurrency and Steemit and have a question. Today I tried to buy some Steem. I initially went to Blocktrades but it seems i can only use this to transfer existing crypto into Steem. So went to coinbase (dont know why I chose them) and set up an account. Fairly painless except I had to give them all my details,.copy driving licence, bank statement, address which I don't like, but I guess no way round it. Then trying to add a payment method but couldn't add either of my debit cards! Now the option to link a bank account is no longer there. So now how t.f. can I buy?
Also I noticed that coinbase charge is about 3.75% for paying with a card. Seems very high to me.
I would be grateful for advice.
Namaste

I, personally, don't ever use coinbase or any other service that requires you to attach it to a legal strawman. From there, all of your future crypto transactions will be linked to that legal record.
The best ways to buy crypto are directly from other humans, via ATMs (most cities have them), or using something like LocalBitCoins (which is still other humans, but a way to find them).
Unfortunately, because steem is so small and used by very few people, there is no way to buy it directly from government currencies, you'll have to buy BTC/ETH/DASH/LTC and then swap that for STEEM.
Aha. I did end up buying some (well, bank is delaying the transfer at mo. but I think it will work) via Localbitcoins, but I still had to do ID checks. But future transactions will only be tied to straw man if I use that same avenue to buy, will it not?
Thanks for the tip on ATM's, I will look out for that option in future.
Ah, localbtc must have gone the way of KYC now. Did you just have to verify an account? Because if the transaction itself isn't linked to that ID info, then you should still be safe.
The problem is that once you have a transaction tied to a legal person, every transaction stemming from that will be tracked right back to it. For example, if I were to set up a coinbase account, link banking/ID info, and buy some BTC, that wallet is fully traceable. Now, say I send that bitcoin to blocktrades, and they send steem to my account, that transaction is also public, so now there is a record of my steem account receiving funds from that bank account, and so on. Unless you are using one of the "privacy coins" (monero, bitcoin confidential), everything is public. It's not a problem as long as you never make that connection to the legal person, but as soon as you do, every wallet/transaction/account along the way is easily tracked right back to the same banking legal person.
Thanks. So now I have downloaded the Edge wallet which appears to be private so transactions cannot be followed. My plan is to send the BTC's I am buying through Localbitcoins to this wallet, then send to Blocktrades so I can buy SBD. What do you think?
Having said that my bank transfer to the Localbitcoins dealer has not yet gone through. My bank is delaying it I guess cos they don't like crypto. the BTC's which I am buying are currently in escrow awaiting my payment but BTC has gone down in price so I'm also considering stopping the payment then buying BTC using bury through the edge wallet. And Bity purchases are anonymous so perhaps this would be better. Yet maybe not ethical or good karma to cancel the Localbitcoins purchase as price is down. Mind you I'm only buying £200 worth if BTC so only about £10 loss at mo. Thoughts?
Now my bank has cancelled the transfer to Localcoins and say if I try to buy crypto again they may cancel my account!
So, I will now try to buy through Bity (no ID required) with Edge wallet
