I agree with you about $10 STEEM. We will get there, it just might take a while.
There are many changes needed in the underlying system that we are using. For this reason, mass adoption is going to be slow.
It will happen, it just isnt going to be overnight.
As for LTC, I am a huge fan also. I can see LTC as a $500 coin.
When do you think these changes could be applied so it influences Steem price?
Markets and platforms are two different things. The price of Bitcoin exploded yet the usage on the bitcoin blockchain continues to double every 12 months. The same is true here. STEEM's value is not reflective of what is going on with the blockchain.
Markets do their own thing. Personally, I like the idea of it staying around a dollar for another 6 months. I am a long term holder and want to load up on STEEM. The longer it stays at these levels, the more we get in our wallet.
Ye, you right, dollar-price is a nice opportunity to get new people on board also. Thank you for your comment!)
LTC is stable like fiat and grows like crypto)
