As a new investor in Steem, it is clear that it has been tanking for a few days. It's the first time since joining Steemit a month ago, that it's dropped past the dollar mark.
I suppose it's a great time to buy, and, do as you said HODL.
Some people are projecting long-term value for STEEM. I believe it will be like the freshly cooked pasta...doneness will be determined by its sticking like glue.
I missed out on the BTC ride; so, I'm glad to be a part of the Steemit community. It would be horrible to see it go the way of BTC, and know I missed the train again.
Thanks for sharing!
Peace.
