I admit that I don't understand the inner workings of Steemit or if it can survive when it reaches X number of users +/-, but this is the year it can take advantage of refugees from other platforms. That has to be a good thing. It is also a good time to get rid of some of the bad code leading to bad behavior which drives users away. Overall, I am cautiously bullish on the platform and crypto. Maybe this will be the year of Steem.
