For his post on Top 20 Philippine Post Contributors

https://steemit.com/bisteemit/@eastmael/bisteemit-top-20-philippine-post-contributors

What I liked about this post was its professionalism.  Hive account@eastmael not only analysed the data to give details on the top 20 Philippine post contributors, but also explains his approach, mentions the tools he has used to carry out the analysis, supplies easy to understand visualizations and also give full credits to other steemains that have helped make the analysis possible.

All in all this is a truly awesome post. Well done Hive account@eastmael
