The fact that 44.02% of all created accounts have at least one point interacted on the blockchain is surprising to us.
Even if one would argue that steem account creation isn't free (unlike most other coins where one-time address use is the norm), Steem still come up top even compared to EOS which has enjoyed more hype than Steem.
While @coingecko is fairly new to Steem, our Gecko-Steemians told us that "Even if Steem fell all the way to zero, we've found some real friends during our time on Steem. That should have value in of itself"
We would conclude that the Steem user-community is highly "under-deployed", in a sense that it's theoretically simple for the community to make waves should there be a clear goal.
(case in point, CoinGecko.com tracks the social aspects of a blockchain too. It's not too hard for Steemians to subscribe to Steem's Reddit or follow on Twitter to give it a massive boost in mainstream awareness)
