The movement up Alexa is reassuring, and hints at the growing influence of steemit in the wider web landscape.
It would be good to see steem climb up CoinMarketCap - a top 20 positioning would be a happy place to reach next year - maybe even next quarter.

Now that I have gained more confidence in, with and on steemit I have started telling people I know about it. I have been pleasantly surprised how receptive people are to it - four signups in the past fortnight.
