It has been an interesting year for sure. I think there has been a large drop of enthusiasm for the whole market in general that goes hand in hand with the price decline. The traditional markets keep going up - so there is less incentive to look for alternatives. The fall from all time highs burned a few, and made others wary of entering the market.
I have noticed a massive decrease in the number of comments and users on STEEM as the price continues to plummets, giving the whole platform a different feel lately.
I got on STEEM because of you - and found a group that made me want to stay!!
I use Steem because that's what a crypto content creator should do! Plus it's censorship resistant :)
