Excellent post and I can only agree with you, the price of Steem is going to be rising dramatically over the next long while. as to what it is going to be doing on the short run, it is a much tougher question. Within the next 6 months, by the looks of it all, we are going to see some more increase on so many levels allowing the platform to gain a lot of subterranean roots into the actual financial system. Like mushroom rhizomes, the value of Steem will increase dramatically just like mushroom popping out of nowhere on an autumn day.
Namaste :)
Especially when all the other platforms are live and marketing themselves!
