This is a result of the positive market we have had in the past few days and the listing in Huobi! The Chinese market will be huge for Steem!
I'm curious what will happen when hiveminds release, i was expecting Steem to remain dormant until the release happened but we have already gone up 100% in the last month alone, makes you wonder what the true potencial of Steem is when hiveminds and SMTs release, we can probably get into the top 10 cryptos without issues.
