Trading Recommendation:
Buy, renewed uncertainty does not impact the continued growth of the Steem blockchain
Investment Recommendation:
Buy, expecting to be much higher in 6 months!
Analyst Commentary:
The STEEM price rose 0.44% verse the USD over the past 24 hours on lower volume ($1,749,510) as Bitcoin hardfork uncertainty renewed market wide fear. There are several powerful voices in the Crypto world damping down the SegWit celebration with reminders that this is not over yet as more consensus building is necessary before the end of the year. Recent SEC action in the United States on ICOs is also causing regulation fear in the market. The rewards pool continues to level off and appears like it will stabilize under 700,000 STEEM. New account creation is going strong at 2,600 accounts created in the last 24 hours. The % vested indicator fell slightly to 72.30% over the last 24 hours which means we are essentially running flat. Pending power downs remains are at very low levels which will provide long term support for the STEEM price. Daily active accounts is up strongly over the past 24 hours to 26,417. The SBD inflation is up with 1 SBD worth about $0.951 which means we are currently falling below the peg (SBD to STEEM conversions are up as users seek to capitalize).
For traders, believe STEEM has significant upside potential due to fundamentals. On the investor side, I believe we will be significantly higher at the end of the year after communities are released and the account creation problem is solved. I would power up your rewards and look for opportunities to buy at current price levels.
Payout Recommendation
I'm removing my payout recommendation because there is too much fluctuation to predict the price of SBD over the 7 day payout period. I'm using 50/50 for now because I'm diversifying my STEEM earnings into other tokens.
