If people would be able to do that, the whole Steem system would be empty by now. Simply because, if you have a drop in value, as is happening right now, a lot of people become bearish, and start selling their crypto's. What is basically "powering down" in Steem. By having a retention period of 3 months, Steem is buffering this, and keeping its userbase and tokenbase more active.
