📈STEEM Investor Report 20 May 2018 (Bitcoin Up and STEEM Flat)

Trading Recommendation:

BUY, price drop is an opportunity to buy, significant risk of STEEM falling if SBD returns to $1

Investment Recommendation:

BUY, expecting to be much higher after the release of communities (coming soon), SMTs, and partner applications

Analyst Commentary:

The STEEM price is up 1.44% verse the USD over the past 24 hours on lower volume ($5,425,760) as Bitcoin rises to $8.5k and the broader market is up. STEEM is down slightly verse Bitcoin as Korean trading remains low at 29% of the trading volume. New account creation data is not available today. The % vested indicator is down at 71.18% on declining power downs but lower power ups. Daily active account data is not available today. SBD is at $2.25 on Bittrex which is still very elevated over the peg, receive you rewards in 50% SBD and then use the SBDs to buy STEEM on the exchange. SBD conversions are a waste of money again!

For traders, I believe STEEM is fairly valued around the $3 level even after SBD returns to the $1 peg. If SMTs and communities have the expected impact of broadening the use cases of the STEEM blockchain, STEEM could be fairly valued at $8 or more. On the investor side, I believe we will be significantly higher after communities are released and the account creation problem is solved (the timeline for this is currently unknown). I would power up your rewards and buy STEEM below the $3 level.
