Anyone that says that the STEEM Price is not correlated to BTC is lying as it is proven in the charts that almost all are correlated based also on the BTC price movement that is happening more than a week now so with that reality we should also support BTC because it is like also supporting the altcoins like STEEM and the other coins.
For me correlated or now we should support both STEEM and BTC for that matter because we often sell STEEM for BTC in order to convert BTC to FIAT so that we can use paper money for our own needs. SO advertising BTC and steem is the way to go since it will benefit us after the use of both cryptos goes much deeper to people and industries.

For one thing all crypto prices are really having the potential to go up as the need for them increase and that will only happen if many people would use the steem platform and BTC as well as the other useful coins including "shitcoins."
Many people still are not realizing the potential of steem platform to alter one's life positively so it may take a while for it really goes into full throttle like what people do to other social media right now but once they realized that they can earn by socializing, gaming, or even making a simple vblog, they will not see social media the way like they are seeing it currently.
