Steem is a digital currency similar to Bitcoin which rewards users for creating the kind of content you might find on a social media platform like YouTube or Facebook. The primary difference is that when people click the 'Like' button on your post you earn Steem! There are a lot of technical details to know if you're going to dive head first into the Steem Blockchain, and I'll be covering those in future videos.
For now, this video is a summary of what Steem is and how I use it to fund my nomadic adventures. You can check out my Steem profile here. You can signup for a Steem account here.
