Awesome to see these numbers crunched like this. I've thought about doing some more research like this but haven't taken the time to do it, thanks for taking the burden off of my shoulders.

While the numbers don't look that wonderful, I have faith that the system will get worked out. Maybe Steem will never at parity with Bitcoin, but in some ways I wouldn't want it to. I'm something of a Bitcoin maximalist, but I think Steem has the best chance of changing that, especially after the ETH/ETC/etc debacle.
