So first off, why would anyone compare prices to it's all time high.

Because they want to highlight the massive drop USD wise without considering the rapid development and progress that has been made the past few months.

Except from BTC and EOS - which was "born" while the bull run was in full effect - almost every single coin is down by 90%+

If by any chance this stagnant market last one more year, a couple of thousand of these coins will die...STEEM won't...

Does that mean that LTC is shit? or ETH? or ADA? Nah they are not...yet, despite being BIG players they have the same fate STEEM has...

Don't mind him...more for the believers.
