STEEM needs some help going up, what can we do?

If you are reading this, you likely have a vested interest in hoping the price of STEEM increases...

How can we make that happen?

One thing I have suggested in the past is using the DAO SBD funds to buy and burn steem with the intent of restoring the $1 SBD peg as well as transferring that current excess value into the main steem token.

Some have suggested that is a type of market manipulation, but I would argue that the goal of restoring SBDs to the $1 peg price isn't manipulation and is instead what should have been done all along.

What say you?
