I think bitcoin is an up and down game with natural cycles now. Lots of people trade against fiat and some folks trade alts against bitcoin. So, when bitcoin jumps in price, the ratio grows wider against pairs like steem. Limit buys are hit and people trade their bitcoin for alts automatically. So steem shoots up when bitcoin shoots up partly because of the favourable bitcoin value ratio.

Don’t smoke too close to that gas can!
