I also remember the days when Steem was at 0.07 cent - The morale was very low and only few regular faces was seen commenting each day and I could recognize everyone one of them.
Now when I scroll through comment sections it's all just new people who I have never seen before. Steem is finally getting to a state where I personally could use it as a social media platform where I can consume media that I really like rather than just support some creators who I think will do fine here. And it's a great feeling to actually be able to support them with just one click of a button! Makes me want to buy more Steem...
