Greetings, Steemians! ( My Introduction )

I just stumbled across this wonderful community today, and since this morning I've been very intrigued by the structure of Steemit and how revolutionary it is compared to other social media websites. After hours of reading all the posts I feel very lucky to have discovered Steemit especially at this early in the development, despite finding myself becoming very confused. The Steam White Paper really took me some mental power to process, let alone comprehend. 

I'm Johann from the Philippines and currently studying a skilled trade (welding). I'm very interested in health, literature, philosophy, psychology, and obviously digital cryptocurrency. Like all of you, it has been a very fascinating journey to watch the world of cryptocurrency grow and evolve. Back in 2011 I first learned about bitcoin when my father introduced me to it, though neither of us ever thought of buying some when it was only a dollar per bitcoin. We never really thought it would get this big. Looking at the price of it now, to this day I still hate myself for not taking the opportunity. Since then I've been devoting much of time to learn about this strange new type of currency. Many months and long hours I spent understanding the nature of cryptocurrency, and that is a part of what led me here to this exciting, rapidly growing community.

I seek to become an active participator in Steemit and hopefully it'll grow and everyone will be happy. With wholehearted belief, I think we're all onto something magical here. Peace everyone! :)
