I've been trying to keep everyone updated on what I've been studying obsessively over the past months. STEEM is continuing to climb!
Two days ago we saw it surpassed $2.74 before taking a much needed breather at around $2.20-$2.40, it's now passing $2.80 and shows signs of climbing above $3 in the next two days. It could even surpass $3 TODAY!
With countless people getting on board the STEEM train and joining Steemit the future is wide open!
There has been record breaking traffic on the platform with account usage growing! People are excited and rightly so!
This is a patience game but it seems lately we hardly need to have patience! The value keeps growing and so do our wallets!
This also created an incredible incentive for a great community to continue to gather. On other platforms there's no incentive for the average person to treat other people well but on here YOU are the product and YOU have demand, or you don't! This is something users have to consider when talking with others and it's presented a far more positive atmosphere.
With that said, many of the realities in life are certainly not positive and can't be made positive until we assess that which is negative and come to understand it. Politics, economics, cultural issue, all of these problems are real and Steemit gives us a platform to get to the bottom of these very real issues without the censorship of Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
We are well on our way to seeing a $5 STEEM and as many theorize in the not so distant future, a $100 STEEM!
Let's just say there will be a lot of millionaire freedom lovers if that's the case.
I don't make such predictions myself. There's too much to take into account that could overthrow such predictions, especially with the incredible lack of fundamentals in the controlled derivatives market which leech down into the decentralized market whether we like it or not. Then there's the media talking heads who can ignorantly badmouth cryptos and then we see the price drop.
On another note, I personally will be losing some value soon as I transferred my SBD to STEEM which takes a few days. I just think that STEEM is going to do better long term as we see the distance between SBD and STEEM getting greater. If you have thoughts on this, I'd be interested to hear what you think!
There is no doubt however that THIS is the FUTURE of social media! We're on the ground floor folks and we should be proud!
