Firstly, the numbers: our total value is currently about 2796 STEEM (+2 STEEM), including 2135 STEEM within Steem Engine and a total of 19403 tokens in play. This gives ONECENT an ABV of about 14.41 STEEM cents (0.1441 STEEM), up slightly on yesterday.

A bit of light relief today, with a modest overall increase in STEEM fund value.
As I said yesterday, I think we may continue treading water around the 14.0-14.5 cents level for some days now. Even post income has flattened out. I've estimated a floor on this down-turn and it looks to be about 14.2 cents, so is very much a correction rather than a crash.
We continue to mark down some token prices as very few of them seem to be holding onto any support, however, they also still bring in some income, hence a reluctance to just clear them from the accounts. LEO is one exception that is slowly rising, but it takes a lot of effort to balance the obvious sell pressure. Luckily, a large part of our holdings is in other MAP FinTech programs and their effect has been minimal; indeed, some tokens such as MAPR continue to rise in price, albeit slowly, and we still get valuable upvotes.
Any opinions on this, please leave a comment.
Have a fine day!

Deutsche Bank Research: Crypto to Replace Fiat Currencies by 2030
And another bank! You have been warned.
European Central Bank May Launch Its Own Digital Currency if Cash Usage Drops
It further notes that an ECB-backed digital currency could have “far-reaching implications” for the financial system. Not only could it alter the way monetary policy is transmitted, but it could also render commercial banks redundant as people would be able to open accounts directly with the ECB.
Exactly! This is what I've been saying about Steem, that users have an account directly with the Steem central bank - whether they use that way, or not, is up to the individual.
‘Hodlers Are Insane’ — 64% of Bitcoin Supply Has Not Moved Since 2018
“Hodlers of last resort are insane,” Rhythm summarized.
According to the data, the amount of dormant BTC as a percentage of the total supply has sharply increased in recent years. The trend has remained intact during both bull markets and bear markets, signaling a desire among investors to save rather than spend regardless of profitability.
