According to steem.supply, total rewards fund in STEEM increased with a bit over 1%, from under 700 thousands, a couple of days ago, to 712 thousands, at the moment of writing.
Recently, Steemit encountered some technical problems, many users being greeted with error messages indicating backend issues. I noticed a significant lag in steem.supply querying content nodes as well. This may or may not be related to a more widespread bug, described here, and affecting a lot more platforms.
I also noticed this morning that almost all bots stopped voting, which resulted in a loss let activity.

I am just impressed looking at the comments here, Steem has got so much potential and such a great community it is insane .

time to pull up our socks and get steeming.I believe that the day Steem has an official mobile platform is the day steem will truly take off in mass adoption.If people can post comments and get paid for there time , there truly is no reason to use FB or other such sites.

With the rewards being so good because of the STEEM amd SBD price, I've increased my activity a bit, trying to post at least once or twice a day, but still keeping a good standard.

several tools that I've grown used to seem to be experience problems. SteemDollar and SteemStats for example. Steemwhales hasn't been updated in over a month last I checked.

How do these two relate? I mean how did less activity lead to more reward fund??

inflation continues, so new tokens are minted, but if they aren't claimed from the rewards fund, the fund will increase. If people don't vote, there's no "allocation" from the rewards fund to the rewards, also.

For the last 3 / 4 days, my wallet's value has been steadily decreasing. Thought it was a glitch in the system or the value of steem falling in relation to the $. The day prior to that though, my account had tripled in value so it was probably down to the nature of the upvoting experiments I was running. I wasted quite a few votes on my own minnow status that went and trumped it by getting second thought of the value doing that and removing all said upvotes. The 7-day lag is breaking my heart. Very confident things will be great in 3-4 days (off my latest tactics). The wait is doing my head in though. :( ;)
And of course, time on steemit's still the best investment I ever made.

Apparently some Steem RPC nodes aren't responding and you can't specify a backup node in apps... Or so I hear. is this why bots quit voting maybe?

Yeah I made a post last night and didn't get some upvotes for quite a while. I had this nagging feeling that maybe I was blacklisted on steemit (paranoia begin to set in), but glad to see this is a sitewide issue.

Yeah I bet it definitely has to do with the technical issues and a lot of automated services not working. I feel like we have a ton more activity since the price spike.

I don't know why but sometimes i really don't like the whole bot vote thingy. but o well if it does favor some people, as we say in Nigeria..." who am i to put sand in someones food". so guess i have to be sympathetic at this point. steemit will always pick up.
