Yes it’s a bother but many things even success in relation to steem isn’t measure by bulls and bears. Steem does still carry value in a bear market. I do feel price will rise and perhaps Smt etc is soon. All slow but steem is all fresh in terms of the innovation it brings and it needs and has had to undergo a ton of experiment. It is admirable that the team behind it hasn’t wilted under pressure and have stayed staunch behind this dream. Many project owners run altogether. Steem is tackling scalability especially now with many apps and I think that is key even for the apps the stay sustained. With the recent Mira implementation I think it will now get better altogether. I think Alts in general aren’t rising with bts. I have looked around and true just few crypto will do well and very few an steem is definitely among this few
