STEEM HAS JUMPED OVER 100% IN VALUE to $1.85 USD? OOPs - NO, It's Just A Korean Exchange Thing!
This morning I woke up and explained to my friend here that I had dreamed that Steem was shooting up in value.. I have never had a dream like that before, so I was surprised.. I was even more surprised when I came back in from my walk just now to see that the price for Steem has jumped over 100% in the last few hours!
Tezos, Zilliqa, Steem and Ignis have all lept up close to 100% today - But it seems that this is only on Korea exchanges (thanks @pennsif for pointing that out!).
Right now, Steem is listed at $1.85USD on korean exchanges.. Up by roughly $1USD since I looked earlier today.. But the main global exchanges remain at sub $1USD.
Wishing you well,
Ura Soul

Oh yeah, good eye - strange stuff! :(
There is a mistake in the Coinmarketcap site
There is no price such as $1.85 USD on any of the exchanges.
Ah yes, you are right - I would have thought that coinmarketcap would be more reliable than that - thanks for clarifying :(
CMC has excluded the Bithumb outlier price of $7.81, but accepted the Upbit (also in Korea) price of $2.65 - which because of the 18% volume share I am guessing is pulling the displayed price up to $1.83.
Although I see it is now pulling the other c $0.90 exchange prices up a bit - now up to $0.94 on Binance for example.
A trick of the light, or some dodgy market manip goings on?
I have no idea - but I definitely had a precognitive dream of this last night ;)
The only time I have ever seen exchanges go wild like this is when their wallets go offline, but still allow internal trading and the internal market becomes hyperactive.. I don't really understand all the details of it and whether or not it is reflective of dodginess on the part of the exchange operators.
More of these strange spikes:
Here is the chart updated by Coinmarketcap
Oh, is that the default view for you? Mine is still showing $1.67USD here.
Ah, it's updated for me too now.
Lol you almost made me jump out of bed in Jubilation. It will ultimately happen though
You have a minor misspelling in the following sentence:
It should be surprised instead of suprised.We’ll take that half billion market cap though (: unfortunately it looks like Steem hit the bottom
I was kinda shocked as well when I got to see the value in Steem amount but yeah hoping to see it in Intl value soon ;)
I think this is some mistake. I checked it out too for sbd on coinmarketApp.
I immediately just snooped at bittrex to confirm but it was not mirrored there the spiked price so I guess it was from Korea. @ura-soul but wow if steem just go over at least $3 then many people here would certainly be happier.
