sadly, this is the catch-22 with these hyperbolic price moves, because you know once it tops out, there will be a huge correction with many bagholders. and that anger and frustration is never good for the "ecosystem".

the flipside, however, it's a great "marketing tool" to get people really interested in the platform, perhaps partly due to a sort of FOMO (fear of missing out). When you show people how one post made US$100+, they're like "oh man, I've gotta check this out! you sure it's not some kind of scam?" It's a bit harder to convince people to sign up when your last few posts earned 58 cents. lol

And the best part is that they don't have to invest a dime except for a bit of their time. And because of that, even when prices inevitably pull back significantly, hopefully they will see the longer-term potential and the "bigger picture" without getting hurt (and perhaps even having learned a few things) in the process.

Ironically, I wouldn't be surprised if a bunch of your past recruits have suddenly become interested "all over again" in better understanding what STEEMIT's all about!
