Just now Bitcoin smashed 1000$ ( Cryptomarket , Poloniex , Bittrex , preev , bitstamp , coinbase )

BTC surprise us finishing 2016 and continue to surprise us starting 2017 , at least surprise me
really i didn't think that Bitcoin could rise significantly simply because no dramatic change in term of dev , user or official recognition , i meant there is a lot of improvement could explain small rise but that is sing of rocketing .

like always Polo went to 1000$ first other are following

I think this bauble as many market analytic specialist use to name it not like the previous one in Dec 2013 , that was fast and in a panic way , it went from 150 to 110 then back to 650$ in almost 1 month wich indicate a lot of volatility and maybe manipulation . This time is different , BTC rise like a king climbing a stair to his throne steadily , one step at a time without any sudden unexpected move or looking back , from Aug 2016 to Jan 2017 ( 5 month ) witch is reasonable time i think .

Many think that BTC rise is bad for Steem and Altcoin and they have their reasons but i think that is overlook to all picture , if you observe Crypto well , you will find a pattern that they tend to go together , i mean in short term most Altcoin go down but it catch up after while . Cypto go up and down together long term or at least Altcoin stay in relatively same BTC price witch is a rise in price to USD .

The question is what well happened to steem , am sure steem moment will come but when ?
that for time and people to tell :)

Happy new year
