Ripple did it then shoot up the price from .20 to 80+
I agree with @ats-david distribution of stake to the projects or marketing to help create awareness of steem blockchain outside of steemit.
As I always shout on top of my lungs, we need more investors to hold their steem, media to promote how fast steem process block transactions (3 seconds) and best of all it's FREE.
We are growing, very slowly but growing. Though in cryptocurrency, it seems we don't exist despite we're in the Top40.
Hold your steem!
Cheers,
