I fully agree. As soon as the "selling frenzies" start as soon as BTC starts to drop in price one day, all those funds are going to go into other coins and then it will be KABOOM, literally skyrocketing gains in all the other coins out there!
Likewise I believe that the introduction of SMTs shall have a great influence on the price/value of STEEM.
So I fully agree with everything that you have said here, but am looking at it from a different angle.
We are going in a right direction. It is time for us to invest on the platform for future gains. Well said.
