RE: 4 Tips For Massive Long-Term Success On Steemit

Thanks for the response, insight, and interesting speculation! I wasn't really aware that STEEM traded at $4.50 USD in July 2016 and then slid to $.10 USD by October (4 months). It then fell even below $.8 cents going to March 2017. It makes sense that as you say during that period from October to March people lost interest in STEEM. Meanwhile BTC didn't take any such hit in price. I think it's important to notice that the price slide we are on now from the high at the beginning of this month of June correlates with the greater slide in BTC and Ethereum. Has the downtrend of our 2nd zigzag pattern started? Can a social media platform survive another giant exodus? I'm not sure volatility in investment vehicles and social media are comparable, but steem certainly is a good experiment in the correlation.

@dan-atstarlite I'm curious to your opinion: What caused the price to drop last fall? Why did people get back in this spring?

Is there a way to see historical steemit usage stats?
