Advanced Steem Metrics Report for 30th September 2016
Increasing transparency by making invisible visible: 7 charts and 2 tables with daily Steem metrics.
Introduction
This is a third version of my daily reports that are designed to be a comprehensive source of Steem metrics for all community members. I am working on adding more metrics and visual improvements.
Changelog
- New chart: number of daily votes/percentile by whales, dolphins and minnows
- Better tick formats, several charts now start at zero, other UI improvements,
How to read
Every chart starts on 1st of June and extends to yesterday. The number on the label attached to the Y axis is the yesterday's value for that chart. Click to enlarge the charts.
User acquisition
A basic metric of any startup, user acquisition provides insights into the future trends of Steem platform.
Chart is based on number of new accounts grouped by the created date. Only accounts that have performed any of these actions are included: post, comment, vote.
User engagement
A number of engaged accounts grouped by distinct activity. At least one action (vote, post or comment) is required.
Content
Content generation has a well positive feedback loop with traffic acquisition through short term viral promotion and long term SEO benefits.
Only posts with >= 2 votes and comments with >= 0 votes are counted.
Daily votes by marine fauna
Number of votes made yesterday by minnows, dolphins and whales by percentiles. Chart shows that most Steem users do not maximize their voting power and therefore do not maximize their curation rewards.
Note: Voting power depletes completely by voting 200 times during 5 days, so this chart has some degree of imprecision.

Payout metrics
Payout data is a sum of pending and past payouts for posts created on the given date.

Cool metrics, although, I suspect that "Distribution of post payouts" would be easier to parse, if you reverse it. You know, to look like that Zipfs law thing. 1% of posts made megabucks, while 6% of posts made $50+, if Im reading it correctly.
Thanks for suggestion, I've modified a chart a bit to be more readable.
