You're 100% right on that. We've got a lot of awesome features in the works that I feel will better empower people and their social communities. I'm so eager to see what Hivemind and the oracle-based SMTs will provide to the platform. I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around the whole concept so I'll have to wait and experience it hands on once they launch.

And you bring some excellent points when it comes to building relationships using Steemit... which is a natural byproduct of the blockchain.. and which, at the end of the day, grows and improves the overall network. I like how one of the Winklevoss brother's explained it. Basically, the more users a network has brings exponential value to that network.

And I think we're on the heels of another big growth spurt. We're achieving all of the best rankings, Ned is making himself extremely public (and available to users), we have SMTs launching soon, and so much more. Investors should really be taking notice of what's about to happen next. We're ranked only second to ETH by the China Ministry for a reason. 😜
