Introduction
Steemit has redefined social media by building a living, breathing, and growing social economy - a community where users are rewarded for sharing their voice. It's a new kind of attention economy.
Steemit.com is one of the many websites (including Busy.org, DTube, and Utopian.io) that are powered by the Steem blockchain and STEEM cryptocurrency. All of these websites read and write content to the Steem blockchain, which stores the content in an immutable blockchain ledger, and rewards users for their contributions with digital tokens called STEEM.
Every day, the Steem blockchain mints new STEEM tokens and adds them to a community's "rewards pool". These tokens are then awarded to users for their contributions, based on the votes that their content receives. Users who hold more tokens in their account as "Steem Power" will get to decide where a larger portion of the rewards pool is distributed.
While most social media sites extract this value for the benefit of their shareholders, Steemit believes that the users of the platform should receive the benefits and rewards for their attention and the contributions they make to the platform.
** Sociological analysis of the steemit community **
A social community is a territorial group that maintains the relationships of its members by using the same suggestions to achieve common goals. Community is a social group that has its own characteristics in terms of togetherness. Community is part of society, but different from collectivity or crowd.
According to sociologists about the community:
1.George Hillery Jr.
the community is a social group of people living in the same region and region for social relations and social contact. Community in this definition means having a view to living together and continuously.
2.Christensson and Robinson
The definition of community is a group of people living in the same geographical area to conduct social, economic, and other activities and activities in accordance with the wishes and expectations of the community. This meaning gives the view that the community must have the same goal.
3.Fairi
The meaning of community is a face to face encounter in small or large numbers of communities to jointly form an intense social engagement. In hopes it will be easier to get what you want.
4.Paul B. Horton and Chaster L. Hunt,
community is a collection of people who have awareness of membership and interact with each other.
In another sense, community is defined as a group of people living together in the same location so that they have developed into a "living group" bound by common interests. That is, there is a strong social relationship between them, on a certain geographical boundary.
So the steemit community is formed because of the common vision to develop together to achieve the goal in the work.
In Indonesia, especially Aceh province which is divided to 23 districts of the city has formed steemit communities that vary based on their respective regions that have the same goal to jointly develop and achieve goals in the work.

It is the 3 communities above that exist in Aceh not including 20 districts / cities in Aceh. The number of steemit communities that formed due to many dreams of those who realized based on the work produced.
Conclusion
Steemit will not grow as fast as it is now without strong communities complementing and helping each other among the community. Steemit community is formed because of the common perception and the purpose to go forward and develop together.
The strength of a community depends on the solidarity and cohesiveness among members in developing the potential and talent in the good work of writing, photography, painting, sound art, and other works.
Seeing the phenomenon and the impact of steemit platforms on the community makes steemit last longer due to the benefits of both parties gained through the growing steemit community and the ever-increasing steemit platform of its members every day.
The benefit of the steemit community with the rewards generated through his work and the steemit platform has increased access for users who want to benefit from his work.
With this created relationship makes steemit platform more loved by its users.
