I think @ned is a lost cause. He did wallet transfers - or something like that - about two weeks before the layoffs came. He made some kind of comment in his wallet about not wanting to be public with his money anymore. As an accountant, I support that and wonder why he did not do it sooner.

If I was him I would be on a beach somewhere and getting some counseling. Not trying to figure out how to come back where everyone is enraged at him. He's got to be exhausted and discouraged, so really - a break at least is called for, if not cutting the cord.

But as a steemian hoping and praying this place survives, I think we need to count on the big guys who are still here - posting, and trying, and working to figure out solutions. There are a lot of them trying various things now and this is what gives me hope.

I was going to find you anyway, @therealwolf before I saw this post. I hear you are the guy giving stats to the stateofthedapps and thank you very much.

I'm tweeting this stateofthedapps info out to my 800+ crypto connections who are not on steem now in hopes they will see our potential, get on board, possibly invest - what have you.

So...

I am looking at the stateofthedapps daily now and analyzing it for my tweets and posts. In my uneducated opinion, I think some of the stats are low compared to actual usage. I also think that some of our dapps are in the wrong categories over there.

I am on this stateofthedapps thing hot and heavy and will be posting about it at least a couple of times a week, so I have something to tweet daily.

I am connected to a lot of active tweeting heavy hitters over on twitter. I've been colloecting them for the last year and a half and now I'm doing even more thanks to @nathanmars plans to go big on twitter with dtube.

According to the tweets I see from them now, a lot of my crypto connections are eager for "mass adoption." They are looking for that tipping point. We look pretty good in this regard on stateofthedapps reports since we have more active users than most places there.

So the closer our stats come to reality, the better.

I will try my twitter push for a couple of months at least. Any help or direction from you will be greatly appreciated.

Merry Christmas :)
