They also happen to be my **two favorite tokens** on the market.

<h5>Honestly I feel as if ETH & STEEM are two certainties in a market filled with 1600 uncertainties.. Hopefully I'm right... and yeah the Steem blockchain is **astonishingly** fast even when compared to coins/tokens that are **specifically** designed for speedy transactions i.e. Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin etc..</h5>

<h3>Yet Steem is still the quickest & ERC-20 is still the most used blueprint which gives **business savvy but not tech savvy** people an opportunity to get involved in the market without any knowledge/education (or very limited) on software engineering & crypotography.</h3>

Fantastic news.., hope this a good sign for the future of steemit.

Steem won't seem to stay out of the news lately. I love it! Next up, the moon!!

I hope Steem has shown a significant improvement.

Thanks for your information.

@Charles1 it's a big and a welcome development to the steem family 👪... Hurray I love steemit... I pray it grows higher and beat #etherum

What a questionable  honour to be top rated by the Chinese government... hopefully it's no short listing for their social surveillance network... looking at the list, it looks quite objective though!

Steem does more than double transaction with only 0.15% CUI workload compared to second place Ethereum (with only half and a CUI workload of 100% and even more than 25K unconfirmed transactions). 

Steemit has the possibility to grow real big. We just need to get the word out and to be honest in my opinion Steemit lacks in advertisement (Steemit seems to never be represented on big conferences or meetups).

If steem was anywhere near as easy to find content as Reddit it would take off. We missed a real window last year when so many were joining telegram and Reddit channels by rolling around with smts. But we can be ready for the next boom next year.

Good news! Therefore I need to buy more ethereum then!

thats soo great news for all steemitian cheers ..

Steemit is indeed more than money and I prefer the knowledge, education and networking side of this great platform which is changing lives -positively daily..therefore do not put your eyes on only money rather other top values of steemit and money will surely come with time

The last time I actively wrote about Steem was this article about [why to invest in Steem](https://steemit.com/steem/@ilyastarar/best-cryptocurrency-to-invest-in-analyzing-steem-from-an-investment-point-of-view-and-sharing-the-multiple-profitable). It won 75 Steem prize for me as well.

The only thing I am concerned about is the focus and speed with which major projects like SMTs are pursued by Steemit Inc. It's not encouraging at all. 

Steem, the blockchain, is a wonder!

Hopefully SMT will attract lot of investors to this amazing community. Being the fastest block chain on the planet steem deserves a lot more. Let's hope for the best and shinning future of steem. keep sharing @charles1

I always knew Steem was the best Lol! They seem to taking their time releasing the SMTs and hardfork 20 I am thinking by the middle of summer it will be done! whithin a month, this is the hope anyways! thankd for sharing @charles1 still on my Auto voter , now resteemed !👍👍👍

Slowly but surely recognition will come (especially if Steemit gets easier to use), but there is no rush as those cryptos that fly in the beginning, slow in the end.

To put things in perspective...at $24T+ in tha hole, we *all* may be speaking Chinese soon! Seriously though, it is good to hear STEEMIT is gaining steam worldwide - you have my upvote and resteem on this one

@Charles1 do we know what HF20 is gonna bring exactly and when it will be implemented? Or where I can read more about that?

Hope steem cross the ethereum fats. It is good for all steemit user. May good success in your life and all steemit user.

I think most of us will agree the future of steem is very promising and with good development and a bit of luck, steem can rise to the top of the price charts as well.

A very good news which shows that at least a big player recognises the value of steem blockchain. Moreover thanks for explaining the difference between steem and steemit...steem is indeed more valuable and the value will surely increase...now is the time to get more steem power. Upped, 100%

Steem will drop the all cryptocurrencies in future.....So grab it and store it fro future

You are right it is big news for steem . Steemit is such a great currency and it will cross the 50 usd and it will become really big currency.I hope Steem has shown a significant improvement.
