Just my thoughts, I mean look at the amount of crashes going on. Steem has been gaining momentum - steadily? I want to use the word steadily but it's been real quick as to compared to counters like Verge.
I too believe Steem power is one of the better alternatives for when the market eases out in the long term. It ain't fast cash but its cash worth making. I've not had this fun making something on the side for God knows how long. So I'd invest in steemit just because of that, because it's fun to be on this network.
I'm trying to spread the news to get everyone I know on this network. My headline though, THIS IS THE TIME TO LEAVE. When I say leave, I speak of their day jobs! haha Cheers!
Thank you for the comment! One thing I ask myself when trying to find value in a crypto is "are people using it?" I know I might be over simplifying things, but at the end of the day that's what it boils down to. Take the users away from Facebook and they're worth nothing. Steem just set the record for most transactions in a day on a block chain during the releasse of HF 19 on Tuesday, and along with Bitshares, are the 2 most transacted coins. That answers a lot of questions for me. People are using it, which shows it's solving a problem they have and they trust it. We're on the ground floor of something pretty special!
I wouldn't say ground floor cause I feel I'm flying! haha I am on the same page with you here. Steemit has a lot of ground to cover in terms of social network but it's looking strong even at this simple stage
