When the price is low all the fair weather posters are gone and it’s more of the hardcore steemit crowd. You don’t see that Rolling Stone dude posting right now to milk the reward pool while not supporting the community.
It also lets me see which new people I want to continue to support when the price goes up. Plus from a personal benefit side of things it gives me a larger portion of the reward pool :)
Crypto was always a long term play for me so any ups and downs are kind of meh. I still like seeing what the people I follow post and it even keeps the bidbots down for a bit. I always sort of enjoyed communities/games etc when they are small. I like the charm of the places before they go mainstream and turn into the typical cesspools. I bask in the now because in 5 years I get the feeling it won’t be the same type of place. It will be more polished, gamified, streamlined and perhaps more mainstream.
To those of you still here posting and growing and working, I salute you! Glad to have you on board unlike those who when the price goes back up will be posting “had a lot going on but glad to be back” posts. :)
Slow and steady wins the race.
