Are You An End-User That Wasn't Into Crypto Prior To Steem?

If you learned about Crypto and how to use it because of Steem, I am interested in your story.

I want to make a case that we can use the Steem Blockchain to onboard MainStream Users to crypto, even without being designed for it.

Share your story with me and the rest of Steem.

It is my opinion that to be a truly successful cryptocurrency we have to reach past developers and the original crypto-geeks and talk to mainstream. In order to do that, we could pitch a likable people who can talk to mainstream users, in a language they can understand.

First though, I want to test a theory that we have in fact attracted and retained people who did not have any crypto experience prior to finding Steem.

This is what I am interested in:

 1.  How did you hear about Steem?
 2.  When did you join?
 3.  Why did you join?  (What was the attraction?)
 4.  Have you expanded your crypto life beyond just Steem.
 5.  How would you explain your current interest in Steem and Crypto in general?
 6.  Are you holding or investing  (no judgment here, I am just wanting to prove or disprove the value)

I'm not overly concerned with how you format this as I would rather get a feel for numbers at this point rather than perfectly created stories.

A few paragraphs or just simple answers will do. If you want to write your Steem Story let it flow.

If you would like to turn this into a post that is great, place the link in the comments and use the tag #mainstreem (two E spelling)

Please resteem and help me to collect feedback from as many users as possible.
