Good day Steemian welcome to today's Steem price update for 26/5/2019 I have been posting the Steem price update since almost the very beginning of Steemit.com many have came here to discuss the daily Steem price's and changes for just over 2 years now.

I also want to mention just incase your wondering when perhaps something doesn't seem normal from the other regular Price update posts that the daily Steem price posts do occasionally change it's format from time to time.

But regardless of changes we will carry on as usual and by this I mean knowing the price of Steem as it's important for your daily plan or strategy and honestly even if you are not planing to do anything with your Steem I still recommend checking out these updates and keeping an eye on the price, so without further ado lets take a look at today's Daily Steem Price Change for 26/5/2019

Should you be trading with Steem today...?

On March 10th Steem reached it's highest for the year at $0.55 and also on March SBD's had their breakout on the 13th, their highest was $1.41. With Bitcoins they have recently been holding above the $6300 mark, the highest for Bitcoins on the latest upwave which was beat on May 16th was at $8340. It's was a rollercoaster getting there starting with that crazy upwave going from $5290 to $5778, after recovered fast it went on to $6071. The next day there was two upwaves taking Bitcoins to $6417 and almost reached $7000. Things calmed down but Bitcoin's still broke record going to $7553! This continued with Bitcoins getting to $8297! It's not been long since they reached their highest at $8340, they fell on May 17th to $6950 but today Bitcoins spent the day on average at $8020 which was slightly lower than yesterday, but only just recently guys they have just had their next big upwave taking Bitcoins to another record high for the year at $8693! Steem is trying to stay above $0.35 with it's overall ranking position being at around #59 amongst all other cryptos. As you know we beat the January high marking our highest value at $0.55. Yesterday Steem began at $0.38 while today Steem was higher at $0.39 it was quiet until ⏰01.20 where it started to reach $0.40 but not holding well by ⏰04.00 it was back to $0.39 but at ⏰07.30 back to $0.40 where it was holding. It looked like it was going to hold but at ⏰12.45 it fell quickly to $0.38, Steem recovered from the fall but staying mostly at $0.39. Anyway if nothing much will happen for Steem in 2019 then I hope those who are still in the game will take the opportunity to keep collecting because right now we are in a seriously good place to grow our accounts, remember as the price goes up collecting actual Steem becomes more difficult and the price as indeed gone up from when the year first started. Steem is doing better then you may realise, in BTC value Steem made its way to a possible new all-time low but if you look back and have been here as long as me the lowest Steem has ever been was at $5800 BTC which was way back in March 2017 if you look now BTC was somewhere around the $6250 mark.. and so last time at $5800 BTC Steem was worth $0.07 but look now around $6250 BTC it's was worth about $0.34! Also with myself included in the dolphin count we have a total of 2000 dolphins and things are going just as I thought when it comes to wealth spreading, whales used to own about %86 of all shares on the system but as for today would you believe that they only own %55! Now that may seem like horrid news but it's really not! Because if we look at say Dolphins just over 2 years ago we owned only %4 and now we own %13, basically the wealth is spreading. Anyway no longer in survival mode the conclusion from all of that was to continue cutting costs, Hivemind is live, the "steemd" instance size's went from 488GB RAM to 61GB RAM. Focus is on MIRA and it's soft launch a new technology to allow the Steem blockchain nodes to store almost all of it's necessary data to a disk in a modern database instead of RAM, this move will make nodes cheaper. Ned said that after the cost reduction progress the creation of SMT's will be next but just dont expect it the have all the answers on getting the price higher. If you have returned recently to Steemit please be aware that there as been a wallet split to your account so please have your keys backed-up, yes ALL of them and don't use your masterkey to log into Steemit.com instead use your posting key, remember that when you click on your wallet you will be directed to a completely different website which should be "steemitwallet.com" please don't worry as this website is safe and part of Steemit.com. For SBD's if you remember they broke record on March 13th reaching $1.41 and are currently on a "average" pegged rate, they shifted up slightly which is great to see considering how much Steem had fallen the results were not too bad. SBD's began yesterday nicely on the $1.00 mark and today it was even better at $1.01 this continued to improve also at ⏰01.20 with SBD's reaching $1.02 and soon after at ⏰01.55 going to $1.03. This continued well going from $1.00 and $1.03 until like Steem also fell at ⏰12.45 we saw SBD's drop to $0.97. By ⏰15.15 SBD's managed to recover going to $1.01 but at the moment doesn't seem to be holding well.

Always do your own due diligence the above is only a opinion.
