RE: Steem: Is the 'recovery_account' a guide to how engaged a new account is likely to be?
Very interesting aspect, @abh12345! I never thought about that. I agree with the assumptions made. If users pay for an account, they are more likely to actually use it and the data seems to confirm this. Nevertheless, this business is strongly dominated by Steemit, so the relative numbers, esp. for the smaller account creators, have to be taken with a grain of salt I guess. Going through the list of account creation services in the post and the comments I realized that there were quite a couple that I didn't know of.

Thanks @crokkon
As you know, the results of some analysis can be a bit under-whelming, and I feel it's partly true here.
However, there is a noticeable different in engagement (based on these metrics) between the 'free' steemit account creations and the paid routes. A plan for the account, or the simple fact it has been bought could well be the likely reasons.
@yabapmatt has suggested some additional work on how well these accounts are growing, and I suspect that it is again the purchased accounts (possibly fueled by a vote from an existing alt.) will win the day again.
Cheers!
