It's starting to feel like the good old days again!
It's starting to feel a lot like the good old days again!
With prices flying up, positive sentiment emerging, and of course popular crypto sites crashing... it's starting to remind me of better times.
I tried to login to my Coinbase account earlier and this what I saw:

Reminds me of what we used to see during the late 2017 and early 2018 euphoric periods.
Back when Coinbase was on-boarding thousands of users per day.
Now all we need is multi-dollar steem prices and it will really start to feel like the old days again!
Anyone have any ideas how we can make that happen by the way?
I feel like we really need to get steem listed on more exchanges if we want it to fully participate in these bitcoin/crypto pumps.
Perhaps we can use the DAO to fund some steem exchange listings? Seems like a great use of the funds to me...
Though, admittedly, it may be a tough sell to get steem listed right now if we are just going to have to HF (possibly multiple times) right away after the listing...
Either way, probably still worth the shot, and overall glad to see some positive feelings in the crypto space again, it's been far too long!
Stay informed my friends.

If $btc goes up to $100,000, all alts will pump like never before
That is the hope. Money from bitcoin will likely spill over... we just need to ensure that steem benefits again like it did that last time. There is no guarantee it will this time around though considering it is barely in the top 100 coins on CM, whereas last time it was within the top 20-30 coins.
Yeah people say dumb money is not coming back... but a Bitcoin pump creates dumb money out of thin air.

We need to use Facebook and Instagram stories to our advantage. That's where the masses are.
Yes, that would likely help for sure. Though with low coin prices it has been hard to keep those who do make their way over...
Indeed a good signal 😂😂

Crypto sites crashing as long as it is due to too much traffic, is always nice to see.
Yep, I’m waiting for kraken as well to fail 😉
This is a fraudulent exchange - do not trade there
Lol you’d think with this long ass time of low interest they would have improved their capacity by now but a good sign none the less jusy means we need more exchanges and less centralization
Yea, I am not sure exactly why it went down, but I do remember a pattern back in the day of high volume and large price moves coinciding with coinbase going down. It was like clockwork. Coinbase is back up and running now, but hopefully this type of positive activity continues, though maybe not coinbase crashing every time it does.
We don't need steem pump. Steady price rise in much healthier.
I think a pump and a price rise can be very much the same thing, just as long as the former isn't followed by a dump.
Steem need to teach Investors and Devs what it is and what it can.
https://steemit.com/steem/@freddio/q4471hThe value of Steem will go up when devs start actually using this place for all the crazy things it can actually do.
There are a lot of things we can do here that you can't really do on a lot of the higher market cap coins. On top of that we have the built in community.
The really big problem is that the best products have no financial incentive to be built in the first place because it's difficult to siphon off money for the devs. Decentralized organization and payment for work is really hard to attain. Everyone tries to game the system and take as much as they can for themselves. .. then the final product ends up getting gutted and looks nothing like originally envisioned.
Agreed. We need someone to build something that they believe in and think big picture about, think about the billions it could generate down the road instead of trying to make a couple thousand right of the bat.
Essentially what I think is going to happen is that we're going to have to wait for a lot of sub-par products to come out first. These projects will kick and scrape for every last user they can find. Then there will be a critical mass moment when someone realizes they can undercut those projects and give those users a way better deal. There will be a migration from the sub-par projects to the superior ones that don't leech off the product.
I imagine it will be a lot like what happened when the video game industry realized that free-to-play games are ironically a lot more profitable than forcing people to pay.
Crypto exchanges crashing means a good thing, I am thinking that it is the start of the bull market @jrcornel :D
I really, really need some money.
It sure would be nice to see a bull market again. I'm sure we all could use some gains here.
