The crazy thing about the price is it actually got pumped, go figure. It's like Steem is more valuable to speculators when it doesn't exist. :P But yeah, it was hard to go without any of the Steem dapps for so long. I wasn't worried about the blockchain though, this is just its defense mechanism when something unexpected occurs. If it didn't halt and went on about its business after the bug, then I'd be worried.

The pump is caused by the upcoming HF20, people are trying to pump it to make a quick buck!
That's probably it, it was just weird seeing it happen when things went awry. I guess it got people outside Steem talking and then they realized a hardfork is coming. :)
