Never looked into mining, but I wonder how much is lost from people that decided it wasn't worth it and misplaced their keys.

I got started in mining mostly because I was looking for something useful to do with my extra CPU cycles when I wasn't using my computer :). When it became something you needed specialized hardware to get any real return, I lost interest in it (mostly because I wasn't interested in making that kind of investment in it).
No doubt there are MANY out there who have lost their keys to a significant amount of crypto! I'm too much of a digital pack-rat for that :)
I wish I was a nerd ;D
I have heard that for BTC it is something like 20% and I would imagine on Steem it is quite significant also.
