I wanted to write that steemit is doing just fine but that would have been an understatement, especially with having all the data from your post in mind. There will always be "bad guys" but we humans tend to focus more on them just because they are louder. You said it nicely, we have to see the forest, not the trees.

It will, you know it will ;)
Thanks for all the info you provided.
