Bitcoin at 4k - Ready to move both ways
(Source - Analysis based on Coinmarketcap.com Data)Since all the News on an eventual end of the Chinese CrypoCurrency Exchanges got spread within the last 3 days the Market lost about $20 Billion of it´s whole value. Bitcoin stayed around a price of $4.000 and seems to be stuck there until some further or final clarification on the situation will be released by the Chinese officials.
But as I´ve already mentioned in my last Post, there isn´t any evidence available at all and the Exchanges are still up and running at the time being. The whole panic is therefore at the moment just based on unconfirmed statements and rumors.
Steem suffers less than BTC
Something interesting that I´ve noticed during this downtrend is that Steem actually isn´t concerned as much as other CryptoCurrencies. Of course the Price went down due to the fact that its Dollar Value is still connected to Bitcoin itself but while Bitcoin lost more than 6% the last 24 hours, Steem only lost about 4% towards BTC.
It might be just one of those small indicators that the Value of Steem isn´t totally dependent on Bitcoin anymore. Sure, their Charts still look pretty much the same but in the beginning of a revolution there are always just some small changes to be seen.
What is your Opinion on the Situation?
I´m following the News pretty closely right now and am as well very interested into your Opinions on the whole situation. So please leave a comment and let me know what you think about all this.

PERSONALLY, I am not moved by short term BTC or STEEM moves.
To me - STEEMIT is the road to independence from a slavery system of unlawful taxes and private bankster control.
PS:// The Chinse rulers are a criminal power that is evil to its core.
The Blockchain is a great technology and for the time being we can expect that emergent nature of the community will overcome all the bans, governments and restrictions and to continuously change technology on its way.
Having said this it's very difficult to bet on the right crypto, which one will be the one that will solve the specific issue of the moment?
My suggestion would be to:
I wrote a small series on diversification benefits and the income that can be created through it.
CryptoPortfolio - Extract a "diversification dividend" - Part 1: Geometric and Arithmetic Returns
CryptoPortfolio - Extract a "diversification dividend" - Part 2: Portfolio Risk and Diversification
CryptoPortfolio - Extract a "diversification dividend" - Part 3: How to make 8% more per year
I would be grateful to anyone who wants to take a look and let me know what he/she thinks! Thanks
I believe in steemit. Thanks to the incredible Ned Scott, i can now earn daily. He's provided a source of income for the masses. I see a big disruption in the world of social media. #STEEMIT is about to ruckus like feud. Steemit is about to topple all these other social media with its amazing blockchain technology.
And @globocop, i second your opinion. You are indeed a crypto prophet.
Im very new here in steemit and i was mind blown about how steemit widens the use of blockchain in a very innovative way. Thats already where it surpasses bitcoin and makes it my favorite crypto.
power up then :) i didnt regret
The thing about steem that i don't really understand is it's inflationary model ( i.e not a maximum number of coins). Could this mean steem will not break out above the $2 level?
Upvoted and follow me, Please help me

Followed. Nice post.

Steem is less traded as a currency because of the platform that it uses. So there is less volatility. As for bitcoin it is entirely a currency that is traded without a separate platform. There lies the difference.
ollowed. Nice post👌👌👌Check out my recent post👌👌👌 on the impact of steemit 👌👌👌on Nigeria's youth🎂🎂🎂
nice post
Honestly, there's still too much confusion in the mix regarding China's blocking of ICO's.
Your post yesterday was one of the few I saw calling it an inaccurate report, and sites like CoinDeck, where the majority of "mainstream crypto" people get their news, still has articles up about the banning of ICO's. Because of this, people are still writing about the news, and it continues to circulate.
I, personally, still have no idea whether ICO's were banned in China. And it's that kind of confusion that will leave the market at a level more volitle than is usual.
nice article
I think there is a lot of over reaction in the market to the news from China.

A wise man once pointed out to me though ... the market is always right ...
