You see that is the problem with numbers. Statistics can be made to show what the person presenting them wants people to see. If numbers are going to be thrown about then the matching set of presented numbers need to be shown. Governments are great at giving only one side of the numbers. The one sided numbers are never done with intention, but that is how they come across.
The title of the post and the post does have what the title showed, it is still a mis-leading numbers post. It is still a one sided post. You end the post with the Number of Hive accounts powering up, no mention of the number of steem accounts powering up, and that makes it look like the people on steem are not powering their accounts up at all, and only powering down. The post was incomplete whether intentional or not,
The focus of the post as it says in the title is the power downs, and the comparison data for those is there.
Your viewing my criticism as a smartassed remark is fine, your post still appears one sided. I actually like Hive, I have a lot of problems with steem, but your post still missed the mark, your post title also says Who is winning? you only gave the final score to one side.
More than 2200 accounts powered up at least 1 HIVE or more since March 21.
