How do you explain Steemit to your friends/family?

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

Steemit is one of the most impressive blockchain apps I've seen, but I'm struggling to explain it to friends/family. What's your ELI5 ("Explain Like I'm 5") for Steemit? How do you respond when they ask "where does the money come from?"

just show them and they will soon see and learn....

I agree that Steemit is better experienced than explained, but an "elevator pitch" is still helpful to generate initial interest.

"Investors".
