With Bitcoin testing $11k and Ethereum $1,000, it looks like just a breathing out correction. No FUD - or other significant news - at the moment, so it looks like a small, natural retracement in preparation of another bull run.

STEEM And SBD

At the moment of writing, STEEM was trading, on average, at $4.38 on Coinmarketcap, down from yesterday.

On Bittrex, the 30 minutes chart shows a very steep sell-off about 6-7 hours ago, to less than 39k satoshis, followed by stabilization.

The 1 hour chart confirms the abrupt dive, but the correction shows upward pressure.

SBD to STEEM Ratio

At the moment of writing, according to steem.supply, you could buy 1.231 STEEM with 1 SBD, slightly down from yesterday and the parity continues to be broken. The trend seems to be slightly bearish.

Overall opinion: The entire market seems to correct, including STEEM and SBD. The SBD to STEEM ratio is on a slightly bearish trend, which means we may see parity again, as soon as the end of next week.

Mother of Crypto Bitcoin Is Number 1

I like the "evolution" chart...really, it is an evolution...into the revolution...of the money institution...economic fruition...wealth distribution...banking destitution...people's power restitution... xD

As you said, this is nothing to be scared about... this is just a natural correction of the bull run we have had since last week thanks to all the positive news after that month and a half of FUD.

Thanks for sharing! The energy is flowing. Stronger and wiser together we're growing.

Small drop in the market after few very good days

I think the dive in price happend because of the big gains in btc value. Often when btc gains a lot we see the alt coins drop in btc value because many are moving their assets to btc so they can ride it up.

yes, but this time the entire market drops a bit

Consolidation isn't a bad thing, it helps strengthen the market at current prices.
