This is next in my series of posts reviewing the amount and value of powered up STEEM on the Steem blockchain. For previous posts, see the end of this entry. Attention:
Due to ongoing API reliability challenges, the customary @penny4thoughts setting has not been applied to this post.

Noteworthy in the last week

| --- | - Week over week, the number of powered up STEEM increased by about 190 thousand SP, or 0.11%. - Over the course of the week, we saw five daily increases and five new highs in the number of staked STEEM. The current streak of daily new highs stands at three. - The modeled value of powered-up (staked) STEEM lost ground against all comparison tokens. - Changes ranged from -3.85% against USD to -0.22% against SBD. - Compared to the January 1, 2023 baseline, the modeled value has lost ground against BTC, ETH, and TRX. It has gained ground against LTC, SBD, and USD. - This week's completed powerdowns were reported at 414K, which is a decrease of about 19% from last week's 512K. - We saw 1,856 new accounts created - down from 2,696 last week. - Net migrations of account classifications showed 3 less orcas, 10 fewer minnows, and 13 more redfish. - The long-term decline in the number of minnows continued, with new lows registered on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. - This week's numbers may be influenced by a widespread disruptive event where the Steemit web site was offline intermittently for more than a day between August 30 and September 1. The web site now seems to have stabilized, but API availability and functionality issues are continuing. --- ---

The graph also includes a linear trend line and a 28 day moving average.. [![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdyaWAxJh4WBv4SCpyEqT9QmGc9biZtzCoa6SewZtGExE/image.png)](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdyaWAxJh4WBv4SCpyEqT9QmGc9biZtzCoa6SewZtGExE/image.png) Here are some descriptive statistics, for numbers geeks. [![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNr22uqL8ypteMN1yB9pQjy8qwLTd8QBwqPknoDVBcv5a/image.png)](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNr22uqL8ypteMN1yB9pQjy8qwLTd8QBwqPknoDVBcv5a/image.png) ### VESTED STEEM ##### Today's downloaded value was 177,371,913, which was up by about 190K STEEM, or slightly more than ¹/₁₀% from last week's observed value. The graph appears to have nearly flattened out in recent weeks, but there is a slightly perceptible upslope.

[![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmU1zHzUUp93gemntBPSgPjqgLZYi34kxemZmqGNgEYZoZ/image.png)](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmU1zHzUUp93gemntBPSgPjqgLZYi34kxemZmqGNgEYZoZ/image.png) ### Modeled value of powered-up STEEM in terms of USD ##### In terms of USD, today's value at download time - about 27 ¹/₂ million - remains higher than the December 30, 2022 low of $23,718,335.58. It declined by about $1.1 million, or almost 4%, during the week.

This value reached a new low of 346,873,290 yesterday (September 2), and bounced back a little bit to 356,305,517 with today's download. This new low isn't all bad news, however, since many authors and voters accumulate TRX rewards along with STEEM POWER.

The current value remains slightly above the long term mean.

We have now seen 10 days above 40%; 517 consecutive days above 39%; 581 consecutive days above 37%; 708 consecutive days above 35%; and 771 straight days above ¹/₃.

^{*As [previously reported](/@remlaps-lite/did-you-notice-the-switch-web-sites-are-updating-steem-s-market-cap-again), the big drop on December 4, 2022 was due to a correction in the value that Coingecko is getting for its circulating supply. Numbers before December 4, 2022 were based on an artificially low supply measurement.}

### Modeled value of powered-up STEEM in terms of bitcoin (BTC) ##### Powered-up STEEM declined by about 37 BTC, or 3¹/₃%.

The value stands about 2,800 ETH above its June, 2021 low.

The graph shows 414K in completed powerdowns last week and 523K pending (both measured from Sunday through Saturday[GMT time zone]). This represents a potential increase in powerdowns by about 27% or less. The powerdown value for today (September 3) is filled in with a value from [SteemWorld](https://steemworld.org/transfer-search), because [SteemDB is not currently giving any value](http://steemdb.io/labs/powerdown). [![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmfXdvXyzRWF1Zri2zp7SLkCjMMA5DuCvEmp9iwviLkduq/image.png)](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmfXdvXyzRWF1Zri2zp7SLkCjMMA5DuCvEmp9iwviLkduq/image.png) The horizontal lines are the average values for completed (blue) and pending (cyan) powerdowns, and the yellow line is a 28 day moving average of completed powerdowns. "Pending" numbers now come from the Steemit API, not from steemdb.io. Here are some descriptive statistics for the numbers geeks [![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSdhbQKMpy72ZUC5FgSeQZEjzTkbvFJQ6QPzRzyZ8jZTf/image.png)](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSdhbQKMpy72ZUC5FgSeQZEjzTkbvFJQ6QPzRzyZ8jZTf/image.png) | And with a total of 1,727 pending power downs (down from 1,970 last week), here are the times, dates, and amounts of the top-10 | | --- |
