Finally there are some signs that the reward pool is growing!

Since the HF19 on Steemit the reward pool had started to decrease significantly. Before the HF19 the reward fund was approximately $1.6m. After the HF19 it decreased to approximately $700k. This seemed to be an issue because there was not enough Steem to go around. The price of Steem had an effect on this too. This was demotivating many users.

This is the first time that the reward fund has increased since HF19. It went up to $800k Time to celebrate or is it too early?

'Keep Steeming, keep succeeding!'
