"And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same"
-Nelsen Mandela

Inspiring others is our job as blogger, traders and content creators.  The internet has empowered us to make contact and influence people all around the world.  We must use this power to empower and educate others and build a vibrant community.

Cryprocurrency blogging is a new industry, and we have the added responsibility to educate the public, advocate for its ethical use and to not lead investors into scam cryptocurrencies that may fail and harm them.

The key to building a thriving community is to engage your audience and gain their attention.  It's easy to spin people up, but it's not always the right thing to do.

We as crypto-bloggers must educate new users with all the technical jargon and technical terminology.  When we describe projects we recommend others invest in, we need to be sure we are leading investors to solid cryptocurrencies and not scams.  Even if a project is not a scam, it may be shaky and fail.

When we evaluate a project, we need to research it thoroughly.  I am a Steemit user, and have been a part of the project for over a year.  I recommend Steemit, as I have researched the underlying Graphene technology and the strength of the STEEM blockchain, and am confident in its staying power.  Scams like Onecoin and Bitconnect did  not pass this test, and I could not recommend them to the public.
