It's been a while since I had a look at the [steem.supply](http://steem.supply) stats. Recent volatility in the crypto markets kept me glued to the charts, and I have a feeling I wasn't the only one. 

So let's see what happened in the overall distribution of people curious to see when and how much they will be paid in the Steem ecosystem.

# Top 10 Countries

United States remains by far the most active country, accounting for more than 15% of all visits. We do see 3 countries from Europe: Hungary, Germany and Romania, 4 from Asia: Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and Philippines and another 2 from the big American continent, one from the North, Canada, and one from the South, Venezuela. Looking at the inflation rate of Venezuela, we can only understand why people from there are looking for alternative ways to generate income. 

Apart from Hungary entering top 10, I don't see many changes here.

# Top 10 Cities

Probably the most interesting fact about this statistic is that no US city is in top 10. A bit strange, right? Of course, many of the US cities may be in the "not set" category, but anyways, that tells quite a story about the actual distribution of users from US compared with other countries. I'm happy to see Bucharest being the most active city (and by looking at some Facebook groups activity, I somehow expected a big surge). Also, Kryvoi Rog made it to top 10 without its country, Ukraine, being on top 10.

A quick conclusion will be that the majority of steem.supply users are form urban areas, with good Internet access, in both developing and developed countries.

Steem on!
