RE: Will Steemit Succeed? (English/Turkish)
Hey @surfermarly
I get dozens of positive reviews every day. I rarely encounter criticism like yours, highlighting the weaknesses of my articles. I think critical perspectives like yours are a good opportunity for me to improve my work. The use of bots is not specific to me, it is valid for all the content on the top of the trend list. You're right about the Smuggling word. Because English is not my mother tongue, sometimes I can make such mistakes. As I follow all the projects developed in the steemit ecosystem, I know that Steemit's business model is not just promotion. I aimed at abstracting and making it easy to understand when I made this emphasis. I'm tracking steemit stats through @arcange and @penguinpablo accounts. The number of 80,000 is correct, it is the average number of newly acquired accounts monthly since the beginning of the year. The lesson I'm getting out of here is that I have to express the logic of calculation when I use this kind of data.
Thank you and Steem on!

Hey Murat!
There's a saying that the air gets thinner at the top.
Yesterday your article was rated the second most valuable with regards to payout/upvotes in the entire Steem eco-system. At a position like that you need to deal with criticism. But please notice that mine was aiming to be constructive. I didn't flag you and also politely explained my concerns. Honestly you will learn much more from such statements than from all those who only celebrate you, so if I were you I'd just appreciate it.
Steemit's trending page is the most visited page by external users, including potential investors, the media, etc. If you use such an attention-grabbing title - Will Steemit succeed? -, then you have to make sure that your data is 100% correct.
Of course you need to explain well were your numbers come from. That's the basics of content creation: list your references (that applies for any data that is not yours). Be aware of the difference between accounts and users. In your article you were talking about 80,000 new users which is completely false.
If you have language issues, then let a native speaker read over your article before publishing it. This is a community, and we help each other. Are you using discord in order to engage with like-minded people from the Steem blockchain? If not, I'd highly recommend you to do this.
You know Steemit is not a place where you just drop your content, wait for it to make a quick buck, read the positive comments and leave...
Steem on!
You don't need to worry about thin air for me. I'm used to it. I intend to be here for a long time. I hope we will understand each other better in time ☺
I don't think we have a problem in understanding each other... We just have a different point of view :-)
