Introduction

This is an update for Tasteem data in February 2019. Previous posts on Tasteem data can be found on Tasteem in 2018 and Tasteem January 2019.

Activities on the crypto project usually follows the price. February seems to be a month with just a slight recovery in the crypto world. After a long period of prices going down, we have seen a little bit green in January and February followed that trend with a few bumps on the road 😊. How this effected the Tasteem project, and how are the overall activities on the platform will be presented as follows.

For those who don’t know @tasteem is rewarding its users for restaurant reviews. People can take a photo of the place they eat and the food and drinks, arrange it in a mannerd that is required, post it and get reward in form of upvotes.

The data for February 2019 was collected from the Steem blockchain, arranged and presented here.

Activity on Tasteem

Activity on the platform is in posts and comments. Tasteemers post their reviews from the web platform tasteem.io. Later they get upvote from Tasteem as a reward. Also, there are ongoing contests, and the winner gets even bigger reward.

All the posts and comments made on the Tasteem web are ending on the Steem blockchain.
Posts and comments can be made on their web, but also from the other steem interfaces like Steemit, Partiko, Busy, Esteem etc. Because of this, two sets of data for activities were analysed. The first is showing all the post and comments with the tasteem tag, and the second one is for the posts and comment made only with the tasteem.app.

The total number of posts and comments is show in the chart below. Data for each day was collected and presented on this graph.

As expected, the overall data containing the tasteem tag have more activities that the posts and comments made only through the Tasteem interface.
