We've already reached 1/8 of all USDe supply and are going to reach 1/3 total supply in about 5 weeks. So we are going to mine all USDe within a year? I am so surprised about that, not sure it is good or bad, though. But the road ahead is still not clear enough and success will never come easy. Have we done our best? We have so much strength, but why some other coins still outrun us? Could someone give me an answer?

Don't worry man. Others may be temporarily ahead of us but that's OK. We are around for the long haul, those others will be only a blip on our radar years from now when we are still being used. I hope I can get more USDe before they get all mined out!

I do agree we are here for the long haul. But I also think that we should see a steady increase in both the amount of miners (net has rate) and preferably also coin value. If this does not happen, people will start loosing their interest. A coin with a small user base does not have a future.
In the past days there was a lot of good news for USDe (added to a number of coin markets and trackers). We were/are even high on the list of coinwarz, which is very good. Still, not many new people started mining (net hash remained the same) and the price did not move at all. On coinmarket.io all other coins passed USDe in trading volume and most of them went up in price a lot. This worries me and makes me wonder why this is and what we can do about it.
I did invest a reasonable amount of money in USDe and am still very happy that I did. But at the same time I also think something needs to happen. Maybe some good old pump and dumping (not me dumping) will be positive for the coin in the long run. We just need more action on the markets and in hash rate. Non USDe miners should start mining the coin, even if it is for a short period of time. I always keep track of the coins I mined in the past, and once in a while I step in again.

Although the above sounds negative, I do think the coin can have a great future and am evening thinking of buying some more later today.
Maybe it is even a good idea if the Dev for example would set-up a wallet where people can donate some BTC which then will be used to buy USDe. The USDe can then be used for charity and or give aways in future, while at the same time the price might go up a bit.
