Trading Recommendation:
BUY, price drop is an opportunity to buy, significant risk of STEEM falling if SBD returns to $1
Investment Recommendation:
BUY, expecting to be much higher after the release of communities (coming soon), SMTs, and partner applications
Analyst Commentary:
The STEEM price is down 9.15% verse the USD over the past 24 hours on higher volume ($8,830,350) as Bitcoin is down at $7.25k and the broader market is down. STEEM is down sharply verse Bitcoin as Korean trading is down at 17% of the trading volume. New account creation data is not available today. The % vested indicator is down slightly at 71.13% on steady power downs and low power ups. Daily active account data is not available today. SBD is at $1.64 on Bittrex which is still very elevated over the peg, receive you rewards in 50% SBD and then use the SBDs to buy STEEM on the exchange. SBD conversions are a waste of money again!
For traders, I believe STEEM is fairly valued around the $3 level even after SBD returns to the $1 peg. If SMTs and communities have the expected impact of broadening the use cases of the STEEM blockchain, STEEM could be fairly valued at $8 or more. On the investor side, I believe we will be significantly higher after communities are released and the account creation problem is solved (the timeline for this is currently unknown). I would power up your rewards and buy STEEM below the $3 level.

It's going to be interesting to see where things go next. Steem is staying around 30th in the chart, but it's so volatile just now.
The whole market is taking a beating. I'm actually hoping for STEEM to go a little further down verse Bitcoin so I can buy some more before the SMT release.
Hey, just saw you are voting again. It's an interesting time for crypto, but I still think Steem/Steemit could do well. I'm planning to go to Steemfest again
Yes, I've been super busy at work. Things should be calming down in September or October and I'm hoping to get back on Steemit at that time. It's good to hear HF 20 is finally coming down next month. I probably won't make it to SteemFest because travel to Europe is pretty pricey from the US.
I expect a lot of people want to buy some more. It's a good opportunity to power up
