Steemit's Community Engagement is up over 1,000%
Content & Engagement Growth
We have seen some spectacular growth in the past month.
The new post creation is up from ~1,500 posts a day, to whopping 8,000 posts a day.
More importantly, the community engagement is growing even faster - we are looking at a 1,000% increase in the past month.

And lastly, the number of active daily users has at least doubled. The total numbers are probably higher, since this chart is based on blockchain events, and it doesn't include casual readers.

Price Performance
Daily STEEM/BTC chart is showing a nice uptrend, coupled with an increase in volume.
STEEM is still underperforming Bitcoin and other altcoins in nominal terms (implied USD price). This is partly due to the pre-HF17 inflation.

From the simplistic view of comparison, Steem might have quite a bit of catching up to do.

Usage by App Type
The most popular STEEM app is still steemit.com, with 160,000 new top level posts for the past 30 days.
Very informative! Steem getting more and more attention everyday. It's gonna be awesome summer here. Many interesting articles and authors. Hope the quality of content doesn't go down with more quantity. :)
Its funny but some of the worst content that I have seen has come from those with high value in the system. It seems they (some, probably very few) put out junk content just because they can. They know they will still get a good pay day for the post. Sad in my opinion and it needs to be pointed out when its done. Any thought?
I saw a certain somebody post a picture of shit (literally) that made over $400. I've collectively poured hours into my 20+ posts and haven't made that much combined.
I don't fault the person for doing it, it was actually a pretty clever prank post, but it just doesn't look right, you know.
Is Steem priced in the $2 range because of all the valuable shit-posts on Steemit? I see well written, interesting, engaging posts making less than $2 and a guy who spends two minutes (if even) to take a picture and upload it makes 200X that amount.
The (voting) balance is tilted far away from reality right now, which has me wondering if Steem's price is in a bubble.
No, elder is right. Its the same on Youtube. Channels with 500K subs don't work as hard when they now that simply sneezing on camera is going to bring in 40K views and result in a nice payday. High ranking channels are a rarity who continue to pump good and engaging content every week. They know they don't have to so they don't. Not sure how to fix that.
I am new and still learning. Can someone explain to me in a sentence or two how curating works? Does it matter if you upvote, comment, resteem? Can you just upvote and be included, or is more involved? Thanks...#Noobie here!
Hard to explain here in a comment but you are asking the right questions. There are some good videos on Youtube that will give lots of help. Check out the @papa-pepper page as he has good videos for those getting started!
I feel this will change over time as the competition grows more fierce. Also users can move to different front ends where feeds can display posts based on views for example. Steemit will just become one of the many and will not even probably be the most actively used in the future.
chainBB is a good example of this! As the tech evolves, gaming the system will become more rare in my opinion!
Yes. ChainBB is a great example. It's already looking good and working with many more features to come.
Hopefully we can soon enough setup our own website forums using chainBB.
I didn't even think of that idea, custom chainBB forums! Very cool!
I am afraid, it will though -- look at the two major dump sites :) in social media calling themselves Facebook and Twitter and the kind of garbage that's on there...
Sheer volume, these days, means lower quality (sad but true because of general writing ability and levels of education in today's mass-media influenced society).
No need to despair though -- because this can mostly be solved by better search tools for Steemit. "Simple" as that...
I am aware of asksteem and similar tools. I am also aware of search being a whole different matter with blockindex-stored content here. All I'm saying is that users need to use all the Steemit search tools available or in the process of being added in order to blank out the low-quality content and find what you really want to read. Then the low-quality posts will automatically receive fewer votes and will be siphoned out and ultimately go away.
Thing is SteemIt's quality of content has never been bad. I actually enjoy reading the articles. Sit back and take a moment and focus on them and they are amazing!
Hello, I am a new user, and I certainly strive for high-quality postings. Thanks to publications such ljuyadm as you. I hope and will try to reach your result
The upvote system on the esteem app has people posting more and more.
Honestly i havent been so engaged sync a lot of time.
Hopefully this feature stays like it is to keep the new people engaged as it gives minows a chance to get some payout.
upvote system on esteem? Does it differ from the one on Steemit somehow? Never used it.
It is interconnected but im not quite sure how the system works. I presume its bots upvoting people that use the app. As I can see the steempower of the bots drop.
Its an amazing start for minnows like me and other, giving them stimul to be more active.
This is such an exciting time to be participating in this space and in particular Steemit. Engagement is what makes Steemit an awesome place superior to all social media platforms!
Absoluely, I am tripping of joy over being part of steemit! You are all so fantastic
Awesome :)
@goldmatters I have been steemin all week. I have posted, commented. I might be out of steem by Saturday.
Pace yourself good man! Steem isn't going anywhere.
lol. Thanks I needed a good laugh.
That's cool. STEEM in TOP 5.
Thank you for the content, it is awesome to know what kind of post would get more attention than the others. I hope i will be one of them in future as well. Thanks!
When the growth continuous to increase like this, we can expect steem to be part of the top 10 altcoins in just 2-4 months
You mean, 2-4 days.
Hi!!!nice to meet you!!thank you for your sharing.it is a great post.i hope you can keep going to do it.i hope you have a nice friday.
I can't be inspired more by your posts and your WORK @furion.
Those are some seriously impressive growth numbers for Steem . I am happy to see that the number of posts have doubled. More users engaging and creating content is the critical factor in determining the success of a platform after all.!
Very informative post. I am still new at this but find myself posting 2-3 items per day and voting/commenting on 10-20 posts. I am probably in the esteem app 3-4 hours a day.
This is one of my healthier addictions😀
