RE: STEEM vs HIVE Power Down Data | Top Players| Who is winning?
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
More than 2200 accounts powered up at least 1 HIVE or more since March 21.
How many steem accounts powered up at least 1 steem during the same time period? I mean it is a nice statement, but kind of a useless one when the entire post was comparing steem and hive.
By excluding the data for steem power ups you are only telling half the story. It would be like saying, steem had 1200 new users sign up during the period of March 20-April 10. A meaningless number with nothing to compare it to. (disclaimer, I have no idea if even one person has signed up for steem, just using that as an example of meaningless data point with nothing to compare it to, not even how many apples were picked by all the new hive members).
Thanks for the very thoughtfull notice :)
I would of give you the number if you asked in a normal way, and not playing smartass. There was no intention in just giving the one side number you see, but just a missed point.
Also that part is a bonus. The focus of the post as it says in the title is the power downs, and the comparison data for those is there.
You see that is the problem with numbers. Statistics can be made to show what the person presenting them wants people to see. If numbers are going to be thrown about then the matching set of presented numbers need to be shown. Governments are great at giving only one side of the numbers. The one sided numbers are never done with intention, but that is how they come across.
The title of the post and the post does have what the title showed, it is still a mis-leading numbers post. It is still a one sided post. You end the post with the Number of Hive accounts powering up, no mention of the number of steem accounts powering up, and that makes it look like the people on steem are not powering their accounts up at all, and only powering down. The post was incomplete whether intentional or not,
Your viewing my criticism as a smartassed remark is fine, your post still appears one sided. I actually like Hive, I have a lot of problems with steem, but your post still missed the mark, your post title also says Who is winning? you only gave the final score to one side.
