I understand that, ofcourse.

But if you can for now miss, let's say 50 USD a month, you can currently buy 300 Steem. The moment the current steemprice doubles in price you sell half (so 150 Steem) and got your 50 USD back and above that 150 more SP.
A lot of people talk about being here for the long haul, but act as if they just want to make a quick buck.
17 cts is a steal, even if MAYBE it goes a bit lower.
AND ... if next week it goes up to 25 cts, most wil be discouraged because it didn't go lower, and don't buy because they think they "missed the boat" or find it again too expensive.
