Yeah I have noticed the same in the last week or two - I wonder over the past few days if it is partly to do with easter holidays? People go away more and less likely to be spending time writing blogs.

Wonder if itl start to pick up again now the price rises again - people get scared very easily on here - it didnt make a huge difference to me, as you said it doesnt matter if Steem is $1 or $5 early on when your arent o invested.
