STEEM TRADE UPDATE AND WHY THE CRYPTOKITTIES SAGA SHOWS STEEM IS SUPERIOR TO ETHEREUM
Coin Telegraph
GOOD MORNING STEEMIT!
Just a quick follow up on my STEEM breakout strategy blog from the other day.
So after retesting previous resistance as support, the breakout was confirmed and STEEM has kicked on with a +50% gain in barely a few days.
From there, the STEEM hourly continues to print my old faithful intraday step pattern:
STEEM/USD Hourly
I was speaking about this level on Twitter the other day and now this morning you can see that price has come back to retest the level to the pip once again. It has value.
I REALLY just want to see a new floor form on the daily now:
STEEM/USD Daily
How about that for a scenario where precious higher time frame resistance becomes support?
It's on the cards...
Now unless you've been living under a rock, you'd have heard about the so called loveable digital kittens that are clogging Ethereum's blockchain:
While the gaming element of the CryptoKitties app might seem ridiculous to many of us on the surface, it does highlight some of the problems that clunky, legacy blockchains such as Ethereum in its current state will face during mass adoption.
With that in mind, now check out the following blog from the Steemit Team: Digital Kitties on Steem? How would the Steem blockchain handle 700,000 transactions per day?
"While the many platforms that will integrate SMTs will no doubt dramatically increase the number of transactions occurring on the Steem blockchain--especially if they involve adorable animals--the Steem blockchain was built from the ground up to handle the load."
Team Steemit
The STEEM blockchain is far superior and attention will shift to it soon enough once Smart Media Tokens start to trickle their way throughout content creation communities online.
Something to think about anyway.
Peace.

Has been a really good week for both STEEM and SBD. They finally picked up some steam!
I wonder when people will realise that they can receive SBD worth $7 USD, simply for writing content on Steemit :)
Maybe that is exactly the reason why the value of SBD has been pumped, to attract more people to Steemit.
How clogged is the Eth network, I tried to transfer some Eth to an exchange and I have not seen it arrives in over 24 hours!! Could that be down to crypto kitty?
Yeah, just general traffic caused by all of the above.
Not a problem on STEEM...
I noticed that too. A lot of ICOs going on right now, maybe that is why.
Very insightful, thanks.
No problems Alex. See you around :)
Ive been a bit lax..time to start blogging again :-)
The SBD price certainly makes it VERY worthwhile.
Welcome back :)
