Great to see actual numbers and analysis on the growth in the Steemit community! I'm one of the new January 2018 Steemit users (requested to join January 11, got approved a week later) so I can perhaps share my own insights here. I think there are several factors that influenced me to join. One, of course, is the general "crypto-craze" surrounding anything involving cryptocurrencies. Another is the fact that I was looking for a new blogging platform (I was using WordPress, Medium, etc.) and Steemit appealed to me because I could get paid (!!!). And, finally, over the winter holiday break, I came across articles in the U.S. media that mentioned Steemit, and was curious to see what it was all about... It's been a great ride so far, hope for more exciting times ahead!
