Over the week end it was Asia that was seeing viral growth, now it's almost everywhere...
We are testing record levels...
Got to love the correlation between action on the markets and increased levels of interest and activity on Steemit.
It seems word gets around quickly that the prices are rising and so are payouts.
The Americas and Europe are both flirting with record levels of traffic while Asia continues to surge ahead.
Very cool to see activity picking up!
On the markets, I expect some of the other alt coins might pull back from their "exuberance" but I feel hopeful Steem will have the advantage because we actually have something of an actual economy (the social platform, and associated apps) to give reason for Steem's (the currency) existence... other coins don't have that, when "cooler heads" start analyzing...

I am curious what all this spike is really due to... If you sit and watch the exchanges you can tell that much of this is hard manipulation. I am not discrediting steem at all, it's just that there has been many coins in the last 8 weeks that have skyrocketed with no apparent reason. Did ripple skyrocket because BTC skyrocketed? Or did BTC skyrocket because people investing in ripple are forced to buy BTC to get the ripple? I use ripple as an example simply because it raced to #2 in market cap and had quadrupled its market cap in less than 8 days. Of course it's in the interest of coin bag holders to pump a coin at the same time that BTC rises, it's like multiplying your gains.

There is no doubt that the altcoin bubble is playing a big part. On the other hand, user activity growth has been happening ever since the whale-vote experiment started to have an impact. In general increases in user activity have been preceding price increases.

Agreed, organic usage has been growing but this is being significantly helped buy rising market interest.

Crypto currencies are self fulfilling prophecies. Wave after wave of price spikes leads to more and more adoption longterm. Eventually many will become mainstream as the network effects kick in harder and harder. Steem is not going anywhere since the more users the more demand for its native token. We have core group that is as loyal as those early Bitcoiners. I got discourage investing here last year as I saw my gains evaporate but even before this recent price increase there was many signs of organic adoption growth. I only regret now divesting a 1/3 of my position at .20 cents!

ATTENTION!!!
I encourage everyone to begin flagging all posts by @gavvet. He is repeating content only to suck up rewards knowing he has plenty of suckers following him that will upvote regardless of how shitty the content is. To ensure your -100% posts do not get flagged you can use this page to ensure the post is within the period a downvote cannot be countered: https://steemdb.com/labs/pending

It does seem like there is a problem with reward amounts when price of steem hikes up. Maybe users should be able to put a limit on how much reward their post can get since after price hike, autovotes are worth much more than before.
Getting 200 dollars for content like this does not benefit the platform as whole.
E: and nothing personal against you gavvet, I'm just thinking with the platforms interest in mind.

Isn't steemit wonderful?
It can provide enjoyment in so many ways.
Flag away all you like, you and all your army, since the price rise this stuff is overpaid anyway!
So at least it trends where it can be read and create a little optimism and then you all get to trim it down to size and have fun while doing it!!! Two bites at the cherry, create optimism first and provide enjoyment later.

Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Agreed the ratio is ridiculous and still climbing due to the external rise in the price of STEEM, It was not so when this was posted, however how much more content do you find on steemit with over 100 comments, and more views than votes?
That is where the eyeballs differ with @berniesanders assessment regarding the quality and how many of those votes accrue

Hey gavvet, would you consider declining payout on more than one a week of these steemit stat update posts? I too kind of fell into the trap of thinking it was ok to get big rewards for repetitive stuff that doesn't take too much effort. That was back in the early days and it was berniesanders who flagged a few of my memes a couple of times and woke me up to the issue I was inadvertently creating. All the best.
