Hmm... Well, I know it went to 10 cents in 2016 and rebounded, @apostle-thomas. I do not feel the STEEM blockchain is worthless or I would not be here at all. The coin performance is a mystery.

I use great dApps, have great friends and was able to survive when the price was above $1. Now I am in better shape - more upvoters, more sp, more sbi etc. So if theprice goes up, I will be ok. Right now I do not even have money for food.

But that is me. What about the new people coming in? Who will help them figure this place out if there are no people except big guys? This is why we need a middle class.

I have 50+ tribe tokens. As long as STEEM succeeds some of them will too. Which ones? I do not know.
