03 · what the protocol actually earns
Does Steem generate fees or revenue?
No protocol fee, revenue, TVL, user, DEX-volume or transaction series is published for Steem, so this page shows none rather than inventing one. That is the normal case in crypto: fewer than one coin in seven has any of it.
04 · exact additive research priority
What does the evidence say about Steem?
Steem scores 61.7 out of 100 inside SocialFi, ranked 1 of 4 rated coins on 50% evidence. The four displayed point contributions add exactly to the total; missing evidence pulls only the affected factor toward neutral and lowers its stated coverage. It ranks research attention within one theme, never portfolio action, and it is not comparable across themes.
What it means: Mostly a price reading: less than half of this score rests on the network's own use (fees, users, deposits), so it says little about the project itself yet.

This weakens if: The read weakens if 90-day strength against Bitcoin falls below zero with two weekly closes below the 200-day average, or native activity contracts for two complete calendar quarters.
No valuation section exists on this page, for any coin. There is no company-style P/E or PEG for a token, and historical market capitalisation is not held at all, only a dated current snapshot, so no ten-year valuation band can be built honestly. Where a protocol publishes fees or revenue, the yield against that dated snapshot is shown above instead.
