The Old Dog Warns: Steem Continues on Its March to World Domination!steemCreated with Sketch.

Steem, the Trojan Horse of Crypto Currencies, continues on its stealthy way to mass adoption!

When people join Steemit.com and start to mine crypto currencies with their minds they may have little or no notion that they are continuing the spread of a new border-less and fee-less money! 

Just 20 months in and there are now more than 350,000 registered accounts and it is growing every day. What do you think will happen after Steem Fest 2 and when Smart Media Tokens start to explode?

Take a Look at The Following Stats!


This info from hypestat.com shows that Steemit.com has 175,00 unique visitors a day, 5.2 million per month and it is inching towards being in the top 2,000 of the most frequently visited websites in the World! That's astounding!


This portion of the info from hypestat.com is significant because it shows that while the United States receives by far the most traffic 73% of the users are from outside that country and that percentage is going up! This is also good news for communities using languages other than English! A different language, still mining with minds but the SAME currency! That's powerful!

Some Other Countries in The Spotlight

  • Korea with 8.6% of page views and an extrapolated 15,050 unique visitors per day!
  • Germany with 4.7% of the users has a robust German language community!
  • Italy with 2.4% of the page views is steadily increasing in the number of Italian language posts!
  • Spain has 5.2% of page views and as the Spanish language blossoms just watch what happens!


An examination of the chart reveals that almost all of the top 30 countries list Steemit.com as ranked between 619  and 3,00o of the most visited sites in their nation! 

You Are Still an Early  Adopter And a Pioneer in The Use of The Steem Economy!

We're still in the infancy stages my friends and thing are scaling nicely. There are new applications and interfaces being built on this open source block chain every day by some very talented members. Check out Steemtools.com for pr0of of this. It will blow you away! They are doing things that I cannot even hope to understand but it doesn't matter. I'm mining Steem with my mind and so are you! 

We should all be happy to be here and to help each other reach our goals!

What do You Think?

  • Are you encouraged by these statistics?
  • Are you amazed at the number of applications that are rolling out continuously?
  • Are you thrilled to be here early in Steem's development?
  • Do you see Steem becoming a powerful currency?


I hope that you enjoyed this look at how Steem continues on its march to world domination!


Until next time,

I've been watching this stats for a while. Steemit does seem to have hit a peak after a steady climb over the last few months. It just needs something to give it a boost. The Wired article may help and do could the news that Kevin Rose has signed up. The founder of Digg has 1.7m Twitter followers. He's @krose. We need to ensure he has a good experience

Thanks for the info about @krose. I'll check out his blog today!

He's not posted yet, but at least he's verified his account on his verified twitter. I hope he likes it here

No posts, no comments but 186 followers! That says something right there!

He's posted his link on Twitter and people have written posts about him on Steemit, so it's no surprise. He will have an audience when he does post.

I think Steemit has a greeeeeat potential. I was watching Ned's last video... just motivitional!
Happy to be here... and happy to "meet" people like you ;-)

Very true @steemitri. Where else could a mannequin find so many good friends!

@kus-knee am surprised that the EU actually is very very active
and with the result with China - that I didn't expect
and I'm asking now .. where's Philippines?
surprised that The Netherlands actually has a lot - more than I expected
thanks for posting this
consider it resteemed in the morrow

These growth metrics are very nice to see. One thing I didn't realize when I first learned about Steem and created an account was the potential for many apps to be built alongside or onto the platform (DTube for example). Seeing these new features develop has enhanced my view of Steem.

I'm excited to be here in the early days and it brings to mind when I began using Mozilla Firefox at version 0.9. At that time Internet Explorer was still dominant (and terrible). It's gratifying to look back at that since Firefox has become a popular browser. I would imagine many of us will be able to look back in several years with good feelings about being involved in the early days of Steem and it's related projects.

One concern I have for the future is the diversity of languages shown when browsing. The fact that Steem is growing worldwide is fantastic but the user experience seems diminished when scrolling through Trending items shows various headlines in non-native languages. When viewing the Trending, New and Hot feeds wouldn't it be better for English readers to see only English posts, Korean readers to see only Korean posts and so on (unless specifically choosing to do otherwise)? Am I missing something?

Your concern regarding languages is valid and I believe that it will be resolved once Communities are rolled out with the next hard fork.

Excellent. I'll look forward to seeing how that looks.

I think it's stunning trends. A little more time and Steemit will be number 1 in the world in attendance. I believe in it. I think in the beginning of 2018, when it launched a new mechanism and the Internet will become the monetization of millions of people will want to join Steemit.

Time will tell but it looks good!

Wow!!! Steemit is reaching some big numbers!!

Indeed!

Spanish is going to be huuuuuuge!

How long before we see the little hilarski blogging on Steemit in Spanish?

wow.... Nice topic

Upvote and resteem it

Thanks a lot!

Steemit seems to be on its way to become the leading social media tool, slowly replacing the dominant FB... very excited to be part of the pioneers. Our goal would be to facilitate transactions with no intermediary fees between buyers and our partner artisans, especially in developing countries where there are currency issues. Steemit has an incredible potential and we are looking forward to seeing it grow and develop.

It is all very exciting!

we are the settlers of the New World!

I hope not to be scalped by bitcoindians! :D

haha yes we need to be cautious!

That's a good one :P

Great report. Im definitely encouraged by it. I think its only a matter of a short time before the accounts start numbering in the millions. More and more people will start learning about crypto and Steemit is the best and easiest way for people to get into the game by doing what they already are doing anyways in social media.

Yes, you understand the Trojan Horse aspect of the this!

Fully agreed. Upvoted and resteemed :-)

Appreciated!

About the statistics; the very good part from it shows that there is so much potential for growth. And we should spread the information and explain others why they should use STEEM.
In that case we will sure see numbers getting up, soon and probably faster then expected.
In my opinion we should be happy that we are able to build this together, we are the shareholders :-) ; some bigger and some smallers, but when people put time and effort in,.... WOW YES IT WILL BE A GOOD POWERFUL CURRENCY

Glad to read that you are so bullish!

wooohooooo!!!! yes yes yes yes:) this is what I like to hear my friend! I'm so excited to be on steemit everyday! this article is inspiring and I'm just happy to be a part of it.. believe it or not, you've been a big part of why I'm putting effort into it! you've said some very inspiring things to me and I have a strong belief I can make it here so thank you @kus-knee

Great to have you here @stevenalexander!

When people join Steemit.com and start to mine crypto currencies with their minds they may have little or no notion that they are continuing the spread of a new border-less and fee-less money!

That's 100% applies to me as it applies to all the other 100 of thousands of steemit.com users.

I am really thrilled to be the early adapter of steemit.com and thankful to all my steemit-friends like you my dear brother @kus-knee.

We're glad to have you here as well @mathworksheets

The Trojan Horse of crypto. I like that and it's the point of view I needed as Steem has become, well of less interest lately for me as I just hold onto my SP and see what happens while I invest and trade the other coins that are making moves.

Let's see what happens but it could be good!

I'm quite encouraged by these stats and I'm sure the trend is going to continue upwards.

It's inevitable that the Steem blockchain is going to empower people from all over the world (I for one am not from an English speaking country) and I expect a lot of growth from developing nations since there earning just a few dollars a day gets you much closer to a living wage than the same amount would in the US. This is going to be especially true for countries where the general population knows English like India and Nigeria, so the people from there can easily interact with the Steemit community at large in English (and mine with their brains).

I'm really excited to be an early adopter and I'm trying to put conscious effort into keeping active here.

I'm happy about the number of apps around Steem, but I think the launch of SMT would lead to a real upturn in the usage of the Steem blockchain.

With your user name @rocking-dave I never would have thought that you were form a non English speaking country. I agree with you that countries like Nigeria and India have an advantage to do really well here on Steemit and I'm excited for them!

I'm excited too and I think there is really a lot of room to grow in all kinds of interesting markets and demographic segments all around the world. Stats like the ones you've shared are always interesting and in this case inspiring.

Ciao!
Like usually you made a very interesting post! Bravo!
Steemit grow up everyday! I can see it on italian telegram channel, usually 2 person at day join us!
I think this currency has a big potential!
There is a lot of tool, most of it very usefull.

Sono molto contento di vedere che la communità Italiana cresce!

This is an excelent post my friend, can you leave me traduce your post to my friends of the spanish comunity.

You can translate it no problem!!!

Thx @kus-knee, I cant imagine what will happen if we get a real mass adoption... I can only dream... I wished many times I was there a year ago but I guess I am still an early adapter..
( one more request, would you would for me as witness, this can make my dream come true)

Hey, you're still here early and you're doing great!

Thank you very much

I am amazed about the statistics and proud to be a early adopter. The way things are moving I think Steemit will have a great future. With the announcement of SMT Steem will have a great chance to be a top Crypto.
waiting

Things are lining up nicely!

Are you encouraged by these statistics?
Not really because statistics don't say much to me! But I am encouraged by Steemit and the members!

Are you amazed at the number of applications that are rolling out continuously?
No I am not because Steemit is THE FUTURE and the more people talk about it like we are doing now, the numbers will keep growing!

Are you thrilled to be here early in Steem's development?
I have been here for 16 months and I am still super thrilled in any way! To be part of something so big really is an adventure!

Do you see Steem becoming a powerful currency?
I think it will grow but I am not sure how strong it will become! I have to be honest, I don't have loads of knowledge about crypto. But I do dream of it going to the moon!

Hii @kus-knee,
thanks for sharing that amazing stastics and update of steem in overhall, nice overview,. i think in next comming days it become the most powerful currency. your efforts are also appreciateable for the development of community.Thanks a lot.

Thanks so much for your kind words!

Yeah India on top 4

I think in future the steem price will go high. The chart revels most of data.

Time will tell but I am also hopeful of seeing good future growth.

4 big Yesses!

Actually excited to be a part of it in the early years of it. Keeping the fingers crossed!

In the meantime we're having fun, connecting with people,learning and earning!

That's the most amazing part of it. Very, very true.

Oh, I already feel like a small virus))))) lol)) But seriously, I'm really happy to be one of the first users)) I've been here almost a year and a half, almost a pensioner here)))

Wow @sokoloffa that is an early adopter!

an old woman I'm already here))) lol

Spot on, my friend.

Thanks a lot!

My Dad continuously tells me that we're early adopters here on Steemit. That there is so much potential. I wish I had been just a month earlier, however, but I need to let that one go. Yes, the numbers are looking good and the apps being created are very encouraging. In my opinion, the zero transaction cost and very quick confirmations will be one of the biggest advantages going forward, just my opinion

Wow @gringalicious. You couldn't be doing much better than you are! You're an amazing Steemer!

Absolutely super encouraged by these stats mate! And what a honor to be among the early adopters of this wonderful platform!

Great to hear!

Ok Ok...cresce tutto..Crescono i nuovi iscritti, crescono i post, crescono le lingue utilizzate e cresce pure il mio SteemPower.
Però il mio guadagno diminuisce.....boh!

It looks to me that your doing well. If the price of Steem rises you'll be laughing!

Of course i am encouraged and given by the stats no wonder Steemit is gonna explode and in no time we are gonna be one of the top most site .
Let us hope for the best .Nice analysis and the post was indeed helpful buddy

It is a very exciting place to be and I'm happy to be on this ride with you!

Same here buddy ,Just wished if i had been sooner in the platform ,yet better late than never :)

Encouraged here and a great post to boot!

Thanks so much!

Loading...

This is great news! So encouraging and motivating 😊

Hope to see Steemit going mainstream within a year or two.

Nice analysis man, much appreciated!

Thanks for having a look. I also got motivated preparing the article!

The time to come is the name of the steemit. Steamit will be at the top. People have the advantage in this.

Let's hope so!

Yes
Steem has a bright future.

Agreed!

its a very helpful post, thank you :)

My pleasure thanks for having a look!

Wow great stats to read. Glad that I am a relatively early adopter. Great to see that South Africa make 0,6% of the statistics. Trying ur best here to expand!

Yes I am in regular contact with a few Steemers in South Africa! I wonder if anyone there has done a meet up.

I've never gotten in on something so early and I am very excited!

Great!

Steemit is a bit of a love-hate relationship for me xD But I really am glad I found this place, being introduced to this whole blockchain world and the experiment of Steemit itself :)

I'm glad that you're glad to have found it!

Time to rock and roll the world is getting on board hope the steem prices too will get there :D

Sounds good to me!

steemit is a new way to mining crypto , is more then platform its a big family thank you so much for this great post

Yes my experience has been similar about the family atmosphere!

@kus-knee,
STEEM is the best of best! I am very lucky guy that decided to join with this crypto currency! And thanks for this crypto I have met great people like you and all others that I am following!

Cheers~

Thanks so much!

Impressive stats. But looks like it is stagnating now. Now the growth will be slower. The initial fire is out. Hard times to keep the hope.

I just saw a post by @jerrybanfield that there are now 400,00o accounts so I guess that it's still growing.

Havent seen any of your posts doggy :) Nice to see you still kicking ♡

Also thanks for the inspiration

Yes the Old Dog is still kicking!

The statistics speak for themselves! When I begun to post in Steemit in January, 1 Steem was only between 12 and 7 cents, and now more than 10 times stronger! I think I'm very lucky with it! In Hungary there are only very few steemians, or I don't know them. I think the biggest obstacle is the lack of knowing foreign languages. Hungarians are known to be bad students of foreign languages, and I have the same problem. Otherwise, I hope Steemit will spread in my country. I try to popularize it.
I think Steem will be as strong as BTC, and I will be happy if I'll not need to exchange it to BTC, then Euro (fees are so high!) We need Steem card!
I've tried a lot of internet money-making opportunities, but Steemit is much-much better than any of them, and in addition, the community is also great!
There are so great applications that help us to develop. I don't use all of them yet (no time!)

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

Maybe you should organize a meetup in Hungary for Steemit. If you do an article about it you will have great success!

Its most informative news

Thanks!

It doesn't suprise me. Steemit ranks very high on google's page.

Yes and growing and growing!

Hey Old Dog the other day I sent 5 bucks to mu friend for Starbucks. This doesnt sound remarkable but it was for me coz it was the first time I had ever just sent money. It was flawless and lightning also! We may be on to something here!

Hello Friend @kus-knee! I am a pioneer in the market of cryptography. I follow your messages and it inspires me!Great moments of your life! Thank you for sharing! Have a nice day!

Wow!

This really puts things in perspective!

The internet is a HUGE place.....HOW MANY WEB SITES???

Yet Steemit is in the TOP 2,000 most used sites on the entire internet!

That is truly amazing!

I saw the potential over a year ago and have been engaged ever since. Promoting and living the Steemit life every day!

Good Post

I am very motivated from these numbers and really see it as a grwoing community in future. I must say within a year its alexa rank willl be withing 100.
