Never really thought about it this way. It's good news that we are indeed headed the right way. In my mind, I don't know why....but I just know that Steemit is gonna be a grand success.
Having said that, user retention should be the next area of focus and I mean more widespread rewards for everybody. I know with time the wealth is getting distributed and that is fine for the long term but solving issues in the short term is important too.
All in all I am very happy at where things are headed! good luck to all of us! :)
