Steem Report | December 18th. 2017

I anticipate there will be a rush of new users sometime in the next 2 years if Steemit doesn't collapse internally. changes in how the platform functions take time to percolate down through other social media and catch potential Steemians at the right time, but once you start getting critical mass, then things really take off.

I remember joining Facebook and Facebox back a decade ago (yes there were two identical sites lol), and it took years for the Facebook platform to really catch on. Hitting a billion active users after 5 years. I don't expect Steemit to have that kind of userbase, but for artists, writers and any other creators that want their content to be locked in time as proof it is theirs, and get paid for it with a system that allows you to leverage your earnings, Steemit is the best option for them; they just might not know it yet.
