Steem is my #1 holding out of about 15 cryptos for many of the reasons you've stated. I only hold small amounts of BTC and ETH as I don't see the huge upside potential that I do here. It's why I put thousands of my own hard earned dollars into buying STEEM when the price was relatively low in the fall of 2017 and then some more when it dipped back down into the 2's and the 1's briefly.

I also own a pretty solid stake in BTS, XLM, XRP, ADA, and some EOS. The other coins I just own "lotto ticket" sized stakes in.
