Hi, Im very new to steemit, possibly you can answer a question I have been trying to understand. Your comment here suggests that in it's current form steemit has value to you. Where does that value come from. Why is the system able to award currency for posts? My understanding is that where as Facebook and Instagram gain value when you post things that are quality making more people want to use it. With steem you are awarded for that added value. But if steem is not selling your information or advertising to you how is it gaining value? Please correct me if my understanding is very wrong. Again I am new to all things crypto but I am excited to learn and get involved.

Take a look at this post https://steemit.com/steem/@steemrollin/steem-where-does-the-money-come-from There are loads of other posts on here that detail where the value of Steem comes from if you search for something like "Where does the value of steem come from" The reward is not just financial. I get a warm feeling in my undies when people comment and say they like my work :)
