The current rise in the price of STEEM has come as a surprise to me. Previously, when the price of Bitcoin rose, STEEM reluctantly rose in price. Now there is a pronounced bullish trend. Sooner or later it will end in a precipitous collapse, but for some time after the Bitcoin halving, the price of STEEM will still rise.
However, I do not believe that the price of STEEM will rise above 80 cents. I do not see the prerequisites for this. Why should new investors come? Recently, we have not had anything sensational or promising. The only thing that we really develop well is the interaction of authors. But this is still not enough for investors to see the future in this.
Investors need to be told the merits of SP when they upvote other authors in steem. If we ignore BTC, there is a high return on steem when SP is used to vote even if a Curator is not paid in SBD
