Steem is extremely low, but it has nothing to do with what's happening on the platform Steemit itself, it's tied to Bitcoin that crashed enormosly and took with itself all the other crypto, that is all. My account value used to be 120 dollars, now it's about 78, maybe less, so you can imagine what happened with whales...

But! Maybe and more likely it's temporary and the market will get back to normal, when big guys from Wall Street decide to finally enter the crypto market, of course they wouldn't do it when BTC costs 20 000, they better do it when it's 5 000 )))) everything that is happening is planned by big players... that's my guess
