RE: Join Me On Hive, Friday March 20th!

in #hive5 years ago

I'd say that we did change the world, at least certain parts of it. I recall many folks in "not so well off" areas were able to convert steem they earned on here to local currency to survive when they had no other way to support themselves.
So in that, we may have not changed the entire world but we damn sure made a positive change in their world.
See you on the other side!

That is a great point @sultnpapper! The impact this had on the developing world was substantial. It also helped to mainstream cryptocurrency as a whole. I had NO idea what Bitcoin even was prior to July of 2016. Steemit forced me, and others, to learn the ins and outs quickly. Take care of you and yours and I'll see you on Hive! This could very well be the last comment I make on the Steemit platform. That's a really weird thing to think about....
