Can you recognize opportunity?
I bought a tiny amount of STEEM when it was about $1. I watched it fall off a cliff and although everyone else was posting about how Steemit was over or dead, and leaving...
I was having fun! And I still am having a lot of fun. So when you are looking at the number attached to your post you are missing the point-- that if this is truly as transformative as we all believe it is, then the price of that STEEM is irrelevant. Clearly the value of Steem and Steem Dollars are much higher than we expected when the price dropped to a mere 0.08 cents just about a year ago. Can you still doubt when we see highs of $5, $10, $15?; when the conversion to bitcoin is still at an all time low.
Now is the time to get to work, and put your head down. Now you can embed your best ideas inside the steemit coin itself, and as we all continue to tokenize the esteem we place upon the intellectual and creative work we do, the best successes will come not from the payouts 7 days later, but from who you become and how much you grow as an individual.
thanks for this.... appreciate the graphics and your thoughts too!
Community building is how we succeed here.
I am pretty new, ok lightly used, and I see that valuing the platform based on SBD value is misplaced value. The people who bring their worth to steemit are the real value, and as long as there are people of vision on the platform it's worth will continue to be greater than the value of SBD.
I really work hard to improve my blog but no one(in exceptions) encourage my work, and if it is so,so I find myself to be pessimistic... community support is much needed there..
I think it's all about finding and grabbing the opportunity. I considered the dip was nothing but an opportunity to invest and some people sure did grab it and they will now enjoy the fruits of success.
@darkflame sir..
today. Just as far back as January 3rd, Steem was $8.16 USD and that was less than 3 months ago! We can return to these prices, in fact the secret is that Bitcoin controls the prices, and we all know Bitcoin is going to be more popular than steem, and people just end up buying Bitcoin due to its massive global HYPE campaign. And when Bitcoin goes up so does Steem no doubt 100%! We just have to wait and ride the WAVE of Bitcoin! There is almost no steem left for the liquid market and that's a great thing! No one is buying much steem yet but SOON there we be NO more steem left and the prices will go up up up up up ! This is going to end up at $20 steem SOMETIME in 2018 maybe not next week maybe not next month but sometime this year we will fly past our $8 previous high and zoom to the $20 level, and in 2019 I believe we can break the $100 level and by $2020 I DO believe Steem can hit $1000 and we will WISH we had saved up as many Steem tokens like they were Bitcoins! We have a SECOND chance here or no a THIRD chance! If we missed Bitcoin AND ethereum NOW is the time to get into STEEM! $100 Steem is NOT a fantasy! At max 21 million Bitcoins, there arent enough for every one of the 33 million of the world's millionaires to own one! And Steem at 250 Million tokens even in 10 years when we have closer to 400 million, that STILL isn't enough for everyone on the planet, mny people will have to settle for PARTS of a steem, which they already do with Bitcoin! Many today are happy to have just 0.1 Bitcoin since that is close to $1000 and that is a lot of money for most humans on the planet. So just keep stacking steem, yes everyone on steem today, the less than 900,000 users, they can ALL become the new ruling elite, we arent even 1 million users yet, so everyone on here NOW can end up being the millionaires of the future!
Happy steeming..
