Liquid STEEM Report June 29, 2018
This is a historical graph of both Total STEEM and Liquid STEEM supply
Liquid STEEM is the remaining STEEM that has not been converted into Steem Power. (Orange Line)
- When STEEM is liquid, it can be readily sold and purchased. When locked away in SP, it is not liquid, It takes a significant amount of time to convert it back to a liquid form.
The linear line (dotted line) is a line fit to the Liquid STEEM to show if Liquid STEEM is going up or down over the entire time period.
I created this chart with data that I collected over the last few months.
Why is this graph important?
STEEM is created at a high rate. Currently 8.85% per year. Many Steemians have a concern about STEEM inflation with the high rate of new currency creation. This graph shows since February, more STEEM has been converted to SP than new STEEM creation. This means that even with the high rate of new STEEM creation, the available supply has decreased.

That's pretty encouraging news, and not what I expected. I think there is a lot of fear around here, which is justified, but there is also a sense that everyone is powering down and leaving. It's good to know that is objectively untrue.
Glad you like my report. I've been searching around to find one and just couldn't, so I collected the data myself and created a graph. It is a curse of being an engineer. There are a few large weekly power downs that cause the ripple in the chart, but the liquid supply is fairly stable.
