RE: On the road to 50 million Steem users...

in #steemit7 years ago

I wonder what the effect of that many users coming on board in a short time would be. Will it dilute the steem pool, causing votes and post payouts to drop? What effect will it have on the price of Steem? What happens with a huge increase in numbers, then attrition hits due to whatever factors, and all the new accounts become inactive? I'm fairly new to steemit, and have lots of questions like these. Of course, some will only come out over time. And future HFs. I came on board before HF19, and in my short time here have seen negative effects from since the rollout. They may not be effects of the HF itself, but something changed. Or maybe I just haven't been on long enough to understand. That's a very real possibility.

I'm curious about exactly this myself. Would love @penguinpablo or another long-time user to weigh in. I'm too new to fully understand the implications of what happens with such a massive influx of users.
