The Secret Service Arrived

in #introduceyourself6 years ago (edited)

Hi,

my name is Tom. I'm a 20 year old programmer from South Tirol in Austria. A few days ago a friend of mine told me about a new social network he found. He briefly introduced me to the Steem blockchain, how it works and why it is so unique.

As I'm still new here I hope some of you can recommend me some cool apps build on top of the Steem blockchain. I'm already using busy which has a much nicer interface than steemit actually.

I won't probably blog that much. I'd rather like to comment on posts and take part in discussions instead of starting them. 😃

If you have any questions feel free to comment down below this post. I'm more than happy to meet new people!

Kind regards,

The Secret Service

Hello secret.service! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!

Welcome to Steem Community @secret.service! As a gentle reminder, please keep your master password safe. The best practise is to use your private posting key to login to Steemit when posting; and the private active key for wallet related transactions.

In the New Steemians project, we help new members of steem by education and resteeeming their articles. Get your articles resteemed too for maximum exposure. You can learn more about it here: https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@gaman/new-steemians-project-launch

Welcome nice to have you here , maybe you are lucky to be joining when steem is at a really low price . When price is low less people are posting and you have a better chance to earn steem . I highly recommend you post a lot and keep on posting . Till you get to at least 15 Steem Power. Don’t give up . I don’t recommend you buy Steem Power but I do recommend you post often till you get to 15 Steem Power. If you can not post go ahead and make sure to vote at least 6 times when you wake up and 4 times when you are going to bed. Don’t forget to get all your friends to do the same! I repeat I would never tell someone to buy 15 steem but honestly for 95% of the people here will only get to 15 if the buy them ! It’s up to you Good Luck with the choice you make .

Welcome to Steemit. You'll surely have a nice time here.

Hey @orong316

thank you for the warm welcome!

Wish you a great day/night - not sure about your timezone 🤪

now is 10 in the morning :D :D

For me its 5 am 😁

Good morning!

You're welcome.

Just curious if you already have any exact ideas/projects of what you would like to build on top of Steemit?
I've also just recently joined Steemit myself and I find the community to be really chill for the most part, however I guess you won't really be into the stuff I post about :) it's about gaming

Hi,

Right now I don't have any good ideas. If you have some: tell me 😃

Kind regards,

The Secret Service
