Steemit going VIRAL!

As we speak, steemit new accounts are raining in at an unprecedented pace, I first noticed a huge increase in new accounts each time I ran my daily stats script, so I decided to take a closer look at where all these new accounts are coming from, and the results were amazing!

The main conclusion is that the new accounts are resulting from new registrations on steemit.com, unlike the old days where mining was the main source of new accounts, it seems now there is a rush from outside of the crypto community with registrations peaking to a few thousands per day sometimes.

The following chart shows an exponential growth of new accounts registered through steemit.com starting from mid-July:

Cumulative overall new accounts chart:

You can see that the red line took a drastic turn up, while the other lines kept their normal growth rate, if this chart tells us anything it’s that steemit reached audience beyond crypto, which is really exciting! And promising!

In our next chart, we take a closer look at steemit.com new accounts registrations over the past 15 days, we can see the average new daily registration is around 1200, yes 1200 new members daily in average!

It’s really huge for a website that fully launched about a month ago!

Our last chart shows that now, steemit.com accounts for nearly 97% of new accounts creation, while miners account for 2.7% and CLI wallet account creations for 0.3%

There are definitely big days ahead of us, with steemit going viral, and expanding out of the crypto sphere. It’s certainly the first crypto project that took this decisive step.

This is gentlemen !!!

Great info. I can see a true shift in my Facebook throngs that I convinced to come in here. They are all making decent money now and my artist friend, just made it to the 2nd place with her story about the airport in Himalayas. All of her posts are doing quite well now, as she is a talented artist. I think she and others are hooked now. They have abadoned facebook, actually most of us have formed our own Steemit facebook groups, which is a great way for us all to promote eachother's posts and keep up with things on steemit! I'm in 3 Steemit Facebook groups! it's bizarre! I've learned new information though through those groups and it's an intimate way to get acquainted with Steemians! This is great news! I feel that in 6 months, we'll be looking at well over 200,000 or even more. We need to make newer jobs for everyone besides writing!

Thanks, @stellabelle. You got me hooked. My confidence has soared. And I'm humbled by the comments on everything I post. I cannot believe how my life has changed in one month. On Thursday I got an email that would have destroyed me a few short weeks ago - they cancelled my color and composition class I was supposed to start teaching August 29th. I have to say I was relieved. But it was a sobering reminder of the dangers of depending on others for your income.

Yes, best to depend upon yourself.

Thank you for your input, actually I have never been a social media guy myself, although I have been a software engineer since the early nineties and my work have been focused on internet technologies, but neither Facebook or Twitter caught my attention, I never got hooked to any of those, but something about Steemit is really different, it’s decentralized and fairly anonymous, and actually paying good money for good content. I’m sure something big just started here. I would never have imagined I would get hooked to a social media platform like Steemit, but I did.

I think I’m going to need your wonderful secret writer service soon to write my story: “confessions of a steemoholic” :D

Thanks again!

I guess I am in a unique category because I taught myself how to build websites back in the early days. I did some programming also and have been obsessed with digital media from the early times. I always viewed the early social media sites, Friendster and Myspace as a way to share my art and create colloaborative projects. I was always pushing the envelope in some way, trying to add some functionality to the platforms. If anything, I'm a collaborator, have been since early times but I'm a loner as well, and I much prefer to be at a computer than out at a party. Creative ideas when combined with technology has been my mainstay and I pretty much taught myself everything as far as computer graphics/editing/video goes. Steemit, for me is a great culmination of all the work i've been doing both in computer art to collaborating with others. It's a dream actually....

For me it’s a culmination of blockchain and social media, it’s a powerful match for sure.
Enjoyed reading your words, as always :)

@stellabelle.. I want to highlight what you said that should be a spotlighted discussion,

We need to make newer jobs for everyone besides writing!

Agreed. Steemit can absolutely be an incubator for decentralized, steem powered powered jobs, maybe even steem powered products and services. I even envision a day where a decentralized company will also be the largest decentralized employer. Truly a company, furthermore an economy, for the people by the people.

Would love to hear your ideas.

ACtually, each person needs to self-create their own job. Look at @roelandp, @fyrstikken, and hell, look at me. I do several jobs in Steemit, many more than most people as I take commenting and giving people support very seriously. I also take creativity very seriously as that is what i do best: generating ideas, bringing people together and hopefully lessening the existential pain we all feel!

Well, I'm in touch with say, some of the whales, I can say for sure that the vision is to have a marketplace and more soon! Think about it, I'd rather spend my Steem Dollars instead of going through the trouble of converting them. I have certain needs that are going unmet currently. I'm also thinking big because I live in a community and could potentially be buying land. I am interested in cultivating the idea of Steem in a physical realm too. Therefore, the commerce could be even more stable, with people living together, and doing their work using Steem power and never having to venture outside of Steem.

@stellabelle: I was thinking about what you said today about "each person needs to self-create their own job." And, it gave me an idea....
(I also checked out @roelandp and @fyrsikken.... Right on the money.)

The more I thought about what you said the more I realized that there's a lot of people on here who are probably working hard to create their own job and could actually create physical products and services that could be steem powered. I believe #Steem'sGotTalent...

So, my idea is to organize Steemit's first ever hackathon/pitch competition to highlight and jump start steem powered products and services! To ensure people are on the right track, founders,dev, and whales can reverse pitch to the community on needs the community has. They will also make plenty of steem in the process. Furthermore, I would invite you, @stellabelle, to be one of the judges if you're interested in selecting the winner which you would make a lot of steem in the process as well.

Lastly, since it's not all about the steem.. I will be giving all the steem gained from "hosting" the hackathon/pitch competition as a prize to the winner that will be selected by the judges, one of whom will be the steemit community itself. The newfound funding will give the winning team resources to execute on their product and service which will make steemit even more valuable in the long run.

Win. Win. Win.

;)

:)

Without momentum fades, it is increasing the number of account.
The fact that our new fellow is also increasing this moment, is very gratifying.

Nice to see that the community is growing. Really happy about this. I look forward to the day steemit will have its first billion users! :)

it was very nice,, what really every day of registration to join in steemit 1200

@masteryoda, do you have a typo maybe in your last sentence: "This is gentelemen !!!"? It seems like there is something missing there ;)

Great stats and great to see that Steem is growing so much on a daily basis!

Actually it's not a typo, it's spelled like that, you can google it.
It's funny because all crypto people know it, it proves my point, that steemit exited the crypto sphere :)

Just checked and you are right. It seems that steem did exit the crpyto sphere then :D Honestly I have never heard of it like this. I thought that it should be this is it gentlemen... Learned another thing today, so that is not bad either :)

Keep up the great work on the stats!

@masteryoda Steemit about to go parabolic.

Nope, go to my profile for the real stats. It's all much less impressive than you think.

The numbers are accurate, parsed from the blockchain, not sure what you're talking about, I have the data dumps!

The numbers from the blockchain are accurate, but not the numbers you made up and your conclusions. It's not 1200 new daily users on average for example and as more people mentioned new daily account creations aren't exponential either.

I'm interested in your stats but I'm having trouble finding anything in your profile. Please post a direct link.

@smooth ok fine, her you go:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4

:)

I just learned something on steemit!

it was very cunningly) By the way, good news from you.

Speed typing me thinks ;-)

You are entirely right, he put an unnecessary space before the exclamation mark.
The right writing should be "This is gentlemen!!!"

My Facebook Social experiment in Steemit confirms this growth data. I will explain. Many times I made public post on my FB page about Crypto (mostly Bitcoin) with little response or questions. Now that I shared the posted about how a girl made $30,000 in her first make-up toturial I had at least 10 people asking me questions how it works and where to sign up!

Great stats and info. Interesting stuff!

Lots of people are coming in because steemit is a very interesting platform. It thought a lot from learning to earning.

Jesus man, I got to take the same vitamins you do. Awesome as always... great data presented well!

Awesome news. We still grow :)
