I found this post to be a bit of a mixed bag. On one hand, it is certainly detailed and informative, and does have some of the kind of editorial content we're looking for, in terms of your own experiences. On the other hand, I found it very lacking it terms of grammar, style, and proofreading, making it harder to read. I also had specific issues with the content.

Let's start with the content. You say: "I can state that over 50% of minnows, including myself have been at the receiving ends of scammers." Setting aside the missing comma after "myself," how can you state that? Where's the data backing this claim up? There's no link to such data, if it exists. You can guess that. But you can't make a definitive statement such as this without backing it up.

Another issue with the content is this statement: "It is one major platform that helps convert Steem/SBD directly to fiat." Now, apart from grammar issues, which this sentence had (it's missing a "the" between "is" and "one"), Swapsteem is not a major platform. It may become one in the future. I certainly hope it will. But it is barely up and running right now.

On the style and grammar side, I found the post lacking. I realize English may not be your first language. It isn't mine, either. But if you're going to write a post in English, especially such a long and detailed post, I would strongly recommend making more of an effort to improve the writing. I'll cite just a couple of examples:

• "If a survey is being carried out on the number of Steemians who have lost their coins.
  The result would show an alarming figure, of Steemians who have fallen victim to this scam." I spend much of my time when moderating posts telling people to break sentences up. This is one case where the opposite is true. The second sentence is the second half of the first one, because the first one starts with the conditional "if." It certainly can't be in an entirely different paragraph, which it is.

• "He started the journey of Swapsteem well over 3 months now" should end with "well over 3 month ago."

I would recommend pasting future texts in both Hemingway and Grammarly to get a sense of some of the issues with them before posting.
