Um, so..

That's more than Bitcoin has ever done in a day.

Steem is now the top crypto by transaction volume.

"That's more than Bitcoin has ever done in a day."

"That's more than Bitcoin has ever done in a day."

"That's more than Bitcoin has ever done in a day."

.....I just had to repeat this a few times..!! Stephen

It's getting exciting!!!

=]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]
We should all repeat it as a mantra !

That's crazy! How can that be? Because bitcoin can't handle the transactions fast enough or because people collecting Steem rewards count as extra transactions maybe?

Four reasons:

  1. We're growing extremely rapidly
  2. Bitcoin self-limits the transaction volume
  3. Steem transactions are free so people run bots all day at minimal cost
  4. Steem has a whole range of transaction types beyond financial transfers.

Steemit Inc. has not even begun to try to push the platform. They plan to do so, but they have a few things they are getting lined up before doing that. So yeah this should explode big time in the future... beyond what it is now.

I'm curious, can you elaborate on #3 with the bots running all day for Steem transactions? How does work exactly?

People running computer programs which vote automatically according to their policies.

There are bots on every blockchain network but Steem has free transactions so they have almost no running costs.

fascinating I didn't know that, very new to cryptos and learning as much as I can.

So main of it is voting ?!
Does it go as transaction ???
=]

Yes, more than half of it is voting. After voting, the second top transaction type is commenting.

Awesome chart!!!

Gotcha! Thanks for the chart

@demotruck can you explain the distribution in detial

You can find the dynamic chart at Steemdata.com.

Most of the transaction types should be self explanatory, at least when you've gotten familiar with the system.

Because every vote, comment, post, and Steem transfer is a transaction. Which means Steem is actually used more than Bitcoin for practical purposes.

Yeah, it was a genius move by the creators of Steem to make a built in community with the currency. It was only a matter of time before transactions were dominated by Steem. I think this will only increase it's value. Very interesting times ahead.

what is the limit? Can it break someday?

It can go to about 10,000 transactions per second (864 million per day), in the current form. Optimizations will be needed to go beyond that.

In practice the witnesses may need to be keep it much lower than that for some time to reduce replay time, but replay time can also be improved.

Thanks @demotruk. A real credit to the Community. Stephen

Where can I learn more about tps and resource usage?

I've noticed that steemit lags during peak hours.

I'm hoping these are scaling issues with known solutions in the works.

Growth is looking insane!

I'm not sure but I believe that's just Steemit Inc not having enough Steemit.com nodes going to serve users at peak times. If so it should be just a matter of throwing up more instances.

Thanks @demotruk wonder how long it will take before that gets saturated...
say about current growth rates 4% /week (roughly) I guess that could happen in 3.6 years?

Steemit is out to conquer the world. Not by might, not by strife, but by community interest and growth. Anyone can clearly see what is happening.
Like a tidal wave. Sweeping everything in it's path.
Thank you for those jaw dropping numbers. Will it to go ten times that, or twenty times? Who knows.
Hang on for the ride of your life. It is coming. We will enjoy monumental growth for years.
Francis

Thanks Francis, you are very welcome and thanks for your support. Stephen

Incredible. Steem is highly undervalued. This is the most widely used crypto behind Bitcoin and Ethereum yet only a small portion of the their market cap. Longterm Steem will be in top 5.

"Long term Steem will be in top 5." I could not agree more. Thanks for the support. Stephen

Stephenkendal, would you believe that Golos falls into the same category, as it is an official fork of Steem?

Thanks for staistic
By the way you are right
