RE: @just2random is Leaving Steemit and This is a Real Problem - Part Two

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

The interesting stat I notice is 65K active users vs 700k+ accounts. When we reach 1Million accounts what exactly will we celebrating?

And at Christmas it was well over 100K actives so this is the real news here.

I'm not so sure Steemit has reached the tipping point yet.

Sort:  

I was looking at this yesterday as well. Id like to be able to calculate the ratio of active users/total users and track it over time.

Just an FYI, it definitely was not at over 100K actives at Christmas. It's currently at an all time high for actives.

It's definitely not at a tipping point yet, but it is also far from being on the decline.

Active users have close to doubled, accounts are continuing to grow even though there is a serious road block to creating them (manual approval) and the Alexa ranking has gone from around the 2000th most popular site in the world in the beginning of December to sitting at 932 right now.

That is some extremely strong growth, no way around it.

Communities and SMTs will solve the majority of problems people continue to continously complain about. What most people fail to understand is that the Steem blockchain is going to be a platform for tokenizing the web and allowing communities to be built by anyone anywhere and Steemit is just a proof of concept.

Doesn't matter if Steemit succeeds or not, even though the growth numbers for Steemit show it going strongly in the right direction.

You are right but I guess I had the weekly actives in my head rather than the daily actives. I think this chart has been removed from the analysis now.

Active weekly stats make more sense as not everyone posts daily, but should still be called active. But over a period of time, it appears we are growing and not shrinking as I suggested.
It's the apples vs pears problem.
My bad.

I thought you left Steemit! (Kidding)

Those stats give a lot of insight into the way that people actually use Steemit. I wonder if multiple accounts was the norm in the evolution of other social media platforms.

I'm trying to kick the habit ;-)
