If I would be Steemit's CEO, the top3 things I'd value in Steemit the most:

1. It's a thing, not just an idea!
2. Its biggest economic correction is passed, so we can pull up the anchor (0.16 fork), throw out the weight (short term speculators PD & leave), and go forward with full power [up ;) ] (fresh blood, robust community, ambassadors, evangelists, growth).
3. It gives opportunities to the mass, good or bad, black and white, pretty or ugly, poor or rich, etc. Finally we could see what happens if people get power. And as it seems so far, people are better than govs think.

If I would be the Steemit CEO, the top3 things I'd value in Steem the most (I must mention that, too):

1. It's a thing, not just an idea!
2. This blockchain solved many problems first (achievements).
3. This blockchain will solve many problems first (opportunities).

Wait... I appreciate these things without being a CEO! ;) You have trapped me! :D
