The predicted bull run seems to be in place, with Litecoin, which is seeing double digit growth, leading the pack, and Bitcoin growing very fast and testing 12k.

At the moment of writing, STEEM was trading, on average, at $4.45 on Coinmarketcap, up from yesterday.

The 1 hour chart shows consistent downwards pressure.

The 1 day chart shows that the 38k resistance level was broken and the downwards trend is getting more powerful.

Overall opinion: Bitcoin fast rally is draining up all alts, including STEEM and SBD, which both lost against BTC (but appreciated in fiat). The next bear correction of Bitcoin should balance this with some upwards swings for STEEM and SBD, but, until then, this trend seems to continue: losing against Bitcoin, but appreciating in fiat.

BTC, the mother of all coins is starting to show its true potential with its true color "GREEN"... Looks very bullish now! Happy to see Steem is also following the bullish sentiment...

@dragosroua - ALWAYS look forward to your posts. I know you say you're not a trader and that you do this for your own education, but that makes your posts that much more accessible when you're speaking about topics like these that are slightly more advanced (or at least, advanced to me. Trading isn't a part of my background so it's fascinating to get to learn about it through crypto asset classes.) Thank you for being willing to share. Cheers to you!!

The predicted bull run came! Now lets see if it slows down as the weekend comes... Hopefully Steem and Sbds manage to keep their price!

This is the way i like it the market is coming back to the good days
i'm sure we will see some new all time high for top alts in few weeks time

Nothing can stop the crypto revaluation

My "WORKAHOLIC-WITNESS", keep doing the good job.

Steem selling at $4.45! This is so impressive. Hope this trend continues. What could be responsible for the case of stellar?

I think bitcoin will rise to 12k very soon and the rise in SBDs in fiat is good. I cant wait to have 1 sbd= $1k... that would be a future to see. Thanks for the post

Steem is taking over the crypto market

this looks really amazing,hopfully the future of these cryptos be more and more powerful.

your post so informative thanks for sharing...
