We finally reached a huge milestone in the Steemit community -- 1,000,000 accounts!
Now I realize that many of these accounts are bots and the number of active users is much lower; however, I still think this is a huge accomplishment.
I've heard millionaires say reaching the first 1 million was the hardest and it gets much easier after that. I think it's the same with social media. Just the sound of 1 million is a great sound bite. In fact, I recall recently on a Bloomberg interview with Ned the interviewer brought up almost 1 million accounts.
This is a large number and lends legitimacy to the platform.
I think the account growth goes up exponentially from here, but that's just my opinion.
Exciting times in Steemland!
