WHY?
Well, I think we can all agree, this is a bit of a revolution. So many new Steemer's joining steemit and steem itself is a new BETA product only three months old lol.
As I am writing this, the price is under $3, down from $5, with a low of 1.26 USD. It had a crazy bull run that ended circa midnight EST. Currently on a dip but could recover pretty rapidly *chuckle*.
