RE: The Growth Model of Steem: Tree Rings
I imagine that "season of decline" plus another life event has a big impact on whether or not people stay around.
When the crypto market is tanking, life still goes on.
- some people have to get another job
- some people may have lost a loved one
- some people are impacted by a natural disaster
Although I really enjoy the Steem community and am invested in Steem, I do a lot of my interaction in my "buffer" time. So when my free times is used up in other ways, often my Steem interaction is the first to go. It is a sad reality for me, but it is reality at this time.
I have my own pet theory that having earned some Steem and forgotten about it, will make you much more likely to get back in when the price goes up and you've got some surprise money.
I can see that happening. I just hope people who temporarily forget about Steem don't forget their keys. It would be a shame to be able to see the value of their wallet but not have access to it.
