The last few days I have spent a lot of time reading posts from some of the early adopters of Steemit...and from these posts + comments, I am sure that same like me there's a lot of steemians out there who are so confused right now!!!

Where are we heading up to???

Steem price from $8.40 to $1.50

Not everyone here on steemit is crypto savvy...so some explanation of what is going on would be great to many of us here!

Please explain in simple words so that we can all understand!

How come the price of steem is going down like that all of a sudden!? Anyone manipulating it?

I read a great post from @firepower earlier today where there's a lot of real things said, do check it out!


Witnesses earning big but are nowhere to be seen contributing on the platform!

Check this post of witnesses here and do read the comments!From the post of @berniesanders, which has been a great eyes-opener for me, made me asking so many questions on the future of steem/steemit!

Do big stakeholders want steem/steemit to grow or are they simply here for their own benefits only???


As you read in the title of this post...I am CONFUSED and I know there many more in the same situation like me right now!

Here we have people raping the reward pool like crazy so many times per day, others are losing their voting power to downvote those abusers - these votes could have been used in so many other beneficial ways to help grow people here!

On the other hand the price of steem is crashing...witnesses are nowhere to be seen...developments of Steem/Steemit remain only a promise...

Hey yo! What's really going on!!???

Sort:  

How I wish anyone has an answer to this question. It is so sad how the price of Steem has fallen. Even our post payouts are drastically reducing.
I've just decided to remain positive and optimistic. Its gonna be alright

we all know the relationship between BTC to other crypto currencies... 📈📉

hoping we see the rise again...miss the days where I can say my wallet here is another investment. 😕

really confusing, what is the future for new users(like me) on steemit, steem and cryptocurrency rate going down to down, and big whales not helping new steemians, bots working all places for already riches. what should we do know ? start searching some other work or can earn from here too?

Developments of steem remain only a promise for sure, and a bit blury at the moment when articles on the trending page are also filled with self voting whales who are huge on buying vote bids too.

I am waiting for the time when people on trending page will make it solely by organic votes. That wait seems forever, though.
