RE: Who's been chatting away since the hard fork?
Our Steem blockchain was originally conceived and "marketed" as a place where people can earn something of value for their written content @abh12345. Since it was widely reported, by all those “the rest of us” are supposed to look to for Steem “wisdom,” that upvoting comments was no longer a good idea after the EIP changes of HF 21 / 22, upvoting is now quite rare.
As you say here, with a few notable exceptions, comment creation has now dropped … Hmmm. Surprise, surprise. I wonder what could be causing this? 😉
That was the original marketing plan and seeing as Inc needed testers, and those testers were at times paid a lot, I don't think the original home page text was too far wrong.
Things have changed a lot since then though. Steemit Inc must be pretty happy that the code is solid, and looking at what else Steem can do is (rightly in my opinion) being focused upon.
Price has to be factored in to the drop in commentary, but I think I know what you are getting at :)
