I've written before (on the old chain) on the metric of understanding 'Blockchain Value', simply by assessing the actual traffic/activity on the chain. We know that a lot of chains have a great deal of bot activity, but I think we can all agree that this was much less on the Steem blockchain (or was it?). However, I've seen that since the hard fork of the Hive chain, the activity on Steem has (as you would expect it!) taken a MASSIVE beating. Dropping from around 5th position to 15. This isn't good news for Steem as a chain, a community, or an investment. What do you think? Is this death toll for the chain? I'll be observing this list eagerly over the next few weeks whilst I make my mind up about the future of Steem as I think that there is still a future for it.
Data below is from the excellent Block'tivity.
