Also if for some reason you wanted to remain anonymous... anon.steem.network asks for no information that identifies you in any way such as a phone number. So you can make completely anonymous accounts with it.

I made @newsagg and @jeromecorsi using it.

I used a steem connect method that was not working when I made jeromecorsi to make @becauseisaidso, @seductiveart, and @metal4ever.

That method costs 0.5 steem, and then you delegate steem power to it from your account. So I loaned those accounts some of my dwinblood steem power.
