RE: As I sit here watching the price of my $6,000 Steemit post, clicking refresh for the millionth time...
It's actually so fascinating that posting, commenting etc is basically mining on this platform. Everyone who participates has a chance at the slice of the pie when coins are created. It's pretty clever and so much more interesting than burning electricity for coins.
Also what you're doing in addition to mining is "speculating" that your or someone else's content is going to be popular.
