Well, considering STEEM dropped out of the top 100 cryptos last fall and has now recovered and is back at #28 this morning on Coin Market Cap, all is well with STEEM. I believe much focus on this crypto was lost in 2017 basically due to all the new ICO's that hit late in 2017... taking all those money-hungry speculators along for the ride (dormants). Steemit will continue to grow, albeit slowly. Mass adoption? It just may all depend on simplification and a great new UI.
