So is steemit being successful?

I think this question is being self asked, by a lot of steemit users.

So first of all we have transactions. But such metrics are called vanity metrics. Data collected about a company or its users that do not help entrepreneurs make decisions. These metrics serve no purpose other than to make the entrepreneur feel good. Secondly, we have capitalization, which gives us only A GLIMPSE OF THE FUTURE of steemit.

Venture capital is the key.

What really matters and what shows the growth of the platform, is venture capital.

How do big companies, make a decisions and are able to understand that this project have a potential.

They use companies that specialize on Mobile & Web Analytics.

If you do your homework, you can find, that a lot of big companies are paying attention to steemit.

Also being close to one of those companies, a know that steem have huge potential.

Some build in features, can help you gain more confidence in this project.

Steemit have a build in feature in Steemd.com called: Distribution.

We can identify a group of people that are capital involved, also we can say how much involved capital correlate with users retention. 

Looking on the info above we see that legends, superheroes and heroes are really enjoying their stay in steemit.

But Superusers and users, have almost non-working group of newbies while being the most crowded and important.

This numbers shows us that from 34537 of registered users 1150 users were involved in buying or mining Steems and 10000 users, excluding those who were involved in buying or mining, became weekly users. If we will be able to increase those numbers by at least 10 times, Facebook, reddit and others will be out of the game. So we have a long way to go.
