Steemit valuation at 161 million USD! And why you shouldn't get too excited (yet)

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

I love this platform but what we're currently seeing in the market is a classic FOMO (fear of missing out). This can last anywhere between a few hours up to 2 weeks, but if we look at the below graph I think we can say that we're near the top for now.

It has gone completely parabolic which is the last phase of a bubble. Things will settle down and it will go lower again, allowing people to buy back lower. I'm not trying to be a negative Nancy, it's a classic trading pattern.

After the blowoff top, don't get negative, we will settle higher than before and the same pattern will keep repeating itself in the future. This is an awesome product / community / project.

Good initial buy back price will be somewhere between 75k and 100k satoshi's. Just don't get burned trading, it's always safer to hold the coins / tokens / rewards of a project you believe in than to sell and try to buy back cheaper. If you trade, you're opening up yourself for risk. But also never invest anything you can't afford to lose.

I love this project and the community, it's really great, positive and will in the future have a place up there right next to reddit. (If the dev keeps working as hard as he is now ;))

Remember: we are still in beta and the true valuation will become clear after the project officially launches.
Reddit is currently valued at 4 billion, we have a long way to go.

Holy shit at the graph !

But you never know with crypto... this stuff can go up 3000% without taking a break. I bought at $0.51 and sold right now because I really don't understand the supply, where the demand of Steem comes from, wtf Steam Power vs Steem Dollar is and etc. I hope I don't regret it... but I do regret not putting more BTC in at $0.51.

Bitcoin is simple but Steem is very confusing imo. Maybe I should read the white paper? I feel like it will confuse me more
