Analysis: Some estimates of Steem network degrees

in utopian-io •  6 years ago 

Hi @sintoniz, wow, again an impressive analysis! I'm proposing this as a staff pick. However, but due to the recent HF and the VP-to-Mana change, we still can't guarantee an utopian vote at all :(

Thanks for the pointer to the NetworkX library! I didn't know about it and it looks really great!
I think using 8M accounts is a reasonable subset that allowed you to draw meaningful conclusions, and I assume that this already took quite some time to process!

50% of Steemit accounts have over 4-5 friends

I think this is actually a quite high number and IMO a pretty good result for Steem (and I'm aware of the note on this statement). Correlating these results with a metric to classify accounts as active/inactive could make an interesting follow-up analysis!

Thanks @crokkon

  • Yes, the statistical parameters for power law distributions, such as the median and the mean are always disconcerting since, in a certain way, they conceal the great polarity between highly differentiated polar behaviors, perhaps their utility is maximized when we observe their evolution over time or with the variation of some variable, or as you say, with the correlation with other parameters.

  • Enjoy NetworkX!

  • I was not aware of the HF. This is a wild territory of continuous surprises!

Thank you for your review, @crokkon!
