We Will Reach 300,000 Steem Accounts TODAY!
Would you join us in celebrating the viral growth we are experiencing with doubling the number of Steem users from about 150,000 three months ago to TODAY we will cross 300,000 users? Data provided by @furion on https://steemdata.com/stats.
View the richest Steemians and user list in detail with SteemDB by @jesta at https://steemdb.com/accounts.
Less than three months ago when I joined Steemit at the end of May 2017 here is what the user count looked like!
The original screenshot was from https://steemd.com/distribution which is currently under maintenance by @roadscape. I am honored to be among the superhero users today :)
We are bringing friends and family here at an incredible rate which suggests we will reach over a million users within the next year and maybe even six months! What an amazing journey together and a great time to pause to celebrate!
Love,
Jerry Banfield
Great but it is the 5m and then100m mark that will be exciting. And if steemit doesn't start offering clear investment information about interest rate and what people get for voting etc then another social site with financial upvoting will over- take steemit. I can't believe reddit doesn't have something like this under development. The difficulty of getting up to date information from the site itself is appalling. I like steemit so I want it to fix this. But in the meantime Ive started powering down as the lack of correct factual information on the site makes it hard for me to trust the founders and when I describe the misinformation to friends outside the crypto space they all say it just seems very fishy and to get out before I'm left looking like a fool. Jerry if you actually read this perhaps you can bring this and my longer post https://steemit.com/steemit/@katythompson/to-the-founders-ned-and-others-quick-wins-to-make-steemit-less-complicated-for-newcomers about the same topic to the founders' attention.
There is a rebranding in the works, I'm sure all of that information will be part of it.
Well I jolly well hope it does - there needs to be a tab that says in black and white what investors who steem up get, under what circumstances and what people with no steem power get under what circumstances. And if the rules change it needs to be clear what they changed from and to and on what date the change came into effect. If the changes alter the financial attractiveness of investing they should not take effect for 12 weeks which is the time it would take someone to entirely power down if they don't like the changes.
Sure, we should just have the SEC regulate it. Careful what you wish for..
Do you think this is why STEEMIT has been in beta all along ??
Where can we get more infos about that rebranding?
In the Steemit 2017 roadmap on page 12, you will see information on the re-branding of Steemit. The main reason is to differentiate the Steemit blockchain, Steemit company and the steemit website. Here is the link :) https://steem.io/2017roadmap.pdf
Thank you for the link, I will check it out. :)
You're welcome :)
The principal! He will give me TP! I would hate for my bungholio to get polio....Where I come from, we have no bunghole.
Steem is the blockchain, STEEM is the token, Steemit is the website and Steemit Inc is the company. Why rebrand?
To segregate the business functions. Although they have something to do with each other, all users will not be "savvy" enough to realise the difference in their purposes.
now you have some truly valid points.
it'd be good to have more information on the exact interest rate and more info easily for the people.
didn't know about the rebrand coming as well. any news of when it will happen @adept?
that was spot on katy, i noticed you don't have a profile picture. would you like help making one?
Thanks - its on my to do list. I think I know how but if I get stuck I'll come to you for help.
It's now great time to buy extra STEEM :)
So much good news last days hope it will continue like that even for steem hope a 3 price in few months.
1 million accounts by the turn of the year!
That's awesome. I'm proud to be in the top 1000 or so accounts :)
You're a big part if that, thanks Jerry!
This is great news but at the same time, as I´m getting more and more involved in Steemit, I wonder how well is the scalability taking into account by the developers. People in the community like @elfspice are point out some serious issues with the type of servers, witnesses , etc. I think we need more transparency in this area that concerns all of as. The more we grow the more we need it
Oh yeah, Way to go Steeemit !!!
Hi Jerry.
Mate, I was doing some research on cryptos / blockchains for a staff training session I will be running at the office.
Came across this video of yours!
Just wanted to write and say 'great stuff'! Really enjoyed the vid. You had me laughing and reconsidering my crypto investment strategy at the same time. Your concept of investing the majority of your time and energy in one cryptocurrency, as you would your wife, does make a lot of sense. And does go against conventional 'diversification' wisdom - which is kind of herd mentality anyway.
So 300,000 accounts - double in 3 months. Exciting stuff.
So thank you for all you do to promote this platform and know that you have given me a kick up the arse to do more.
Regards,
SirKnight.
It about to blowwww!!
that's awesome, thanks for the info Jerry
