One of the selling pressures on STEEM is temporarily paused. Unfortunately I think its not possible to quantify the effect of this 1 month experiment, but at least in principle, it should slow down the depreciation of STEEM.
For the time being, this leaves us with with just two natural sellers:
- beneficiaries of STEEM inflation (witnesses and the rewards pool recipients)
- random token holders churning out due to the continued altcoin bear market
Can the believers and speculators absorb the selling, and perhaps reverse the price trend?
In the meanwhile, $STEEM going for new low.
It's been lower than this, but it's not looking great. Most coins have been dropping for a while. We have to somehow boost confidence. Most other coins do not have anything like the Steem community, so we ought to be able to do something.
Just lost a weeks work by an editing glitch, by updating a totally different post it somehow replaced another much more important one.
