Steem and SBD are both doing great (including other top cryptocurrencies) according to coin market cap -this is awesome because normally we see a decline in price during the Chinese new year (Lunar New year) plus haters and fuders throwing in bad news in order to induce fear in the crypto space. Does it mean that steem and other cryptocurrencies are now a stable solid investment and thus we can sleep good at night without fear of seeing bloody red market? Here are some few points:
Steem fundamentals is solid: steem ecosystem, for example, is a solid place to be in the crypto space and will surely give investors a positive ROI due to its solid blockchain technology that supports many innovative products (Dtube, Dmani, Dlive, Dsound, Busy etc) especially steemit (best social media platform in terms of reward sharing with members) and the upcoming SMT (see my older posts for details). On the other hand, I will remiss if I blindly say that we will not see declines in price because it is the nature of all markets (ups and downs) and that is what makes it interesting ie opportunity to buy cheap from fuders and make supernormal profits.
Expect volatility: high Beta / risk relates to high volatility in price and this is what makes smart people to make supernormal profits in the crypto space ( wall street too) and what makes fuders to lose all by buying high and dumping at low price . Therefore do not rush and buy when price is too high however wait for haters to do their thing and then target your top coins/tokens when it is cheaper (undervalued tokens like www.elyte.io) after which you hold.
What do you think? Send in your comments , resteem and upvote in order to send in your support.
See my former post: Steemit and Bitcoin haters exposed! A happy and Lol weekend to you all
An Advert for a top new crypto www.elyte.io
White List / Crowdsale: We are planning a big payout/Bonus for all those who bought elyte tokens ( this will be calculated in percentage ie the more you buy, the more tokens you will receive). However we will pay only those who bought from our crowdsale ( see link https://main.elyte.biz/?page_id=433 ) and filled the white list form (not from exchanges).
Bounty: we will pay bounty winners before the end of next week (so keep sharing and applying see link https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeOcKUUoTU6IKr1qX5osYaWMdVL8-nB5RmroYtYBir6YYof9A/viewform ) however only those that bought from our crowdsale (see rule 7) and filled the white list form.
It will be stable in the future ;)
Steem ecosystem is indeed solid. My parents plan and I is to get as many steem power as possible and then start diversification ie focusing on undervalued tokens/ coins as you advised. Thanks a lot for your great posts.
Thanks for your comment...keep up the good work and more success to you all.
Nice post @charles1. Followed and Upvoted. I like to see some fundamental analysis as well here and not just the TAs that seems to sometimes simply say it may go up or down.
I recently blogged about a fundamental metric here that correlates a lot with BTC prices most than most TA methods particularly this past month:

Would appreciate your thoughts and a follow/upvote back if you like.
More sustainable than the dollar..
Before I joined Steemit I thought crypto was all speculation. This is the first real use case for crypto that I've been a part of, and I have to say it has really changed my outlook on the whole space. I used to see ideas like BAT and think that it really wasnt possible to get people to adapt it, now I think its just a matter of time before advertisers are paying us directly to view their ads. I never thought it was possible for an average person like me to make any kind of income from Social Media, but now I see a path where all social media will eventually be earning people income. I think its just a matter of time before the platform explodes and we see millions of active daily users. I just hope that I can get a head start. Having never written content before I joined here, I need it!
Point.... @emmyem84 you are always sending in great comments...thanks, keep it up and have a blessed weekend.
I have been with steemit since the early days and have seen steemit grow from strength to strength . Cant wait to see what the future holds especially after the SMTs are releasaed. Truely an exciting platform to be part off.
Good point, we al will see big success here.Thanks for your comment
there's nothing we can do for now for us a beginner here? hard to get SBD to be a steem power, I feel the law of the jungle is very felt for us beginners in steemit. But thanks for posting mr @charles1.
Lol ..your comment made me laug a lot and I agree. When I joined steem was below 1 USD and SBD was pegged to 1USD now both are hard to get but still very cheap. So work smart and get steem power before its too late
it turns out you agree and have experienced it too, I will always follow your advice, work smart and get steem power before it's too late. I still will work to make a post even though there is no upvote and reward, keep the spirit and not easily despair. someday there must be a benevolent curator.
Have checked out elyte.io too looks like i have a lot to lean, I have been getting used to the price fluctuations, and now i always use it to my advantage not like those days when i used to freak out.
When some people talk shit about a crypto and it seems to really be going down to it's dippest, I always get ready for some ride.
And you right Steem has alot to offer, have began to consider powering up most of the time.
Thanks for the post though.
Good move indeed, more success
Hopefully the upward trend is sustainable because the lunar new year is over. Hence investors should expect good ROI if they bought when the price was low.
Good point indeed
Point, thanks for your comment
I agree that their both doing great right now and im sleeping much better !! So is Bitcoin , rising every time I check it out with some slight downs but mostly up sitting at 10,828.00 Wow what a jump in two days ! Steem is definitely a solid place to be . keep up the great work @charles1 , upped and resteemed but my voting power is getting low so I need to take easy for a few days !Steem on! 😀👍✌💕👌
Thanky 😀👍✌💕👌
Semm like steem and other cryptocurrencies are now stable solid investment..... have a wonderful day @charles1 :-)
welcome my dear one ..I wish you a blessed week
Crypto is no doubt a solid great investment we can sleep tension free at night not taking any tension at all but the only time we need to tension i.e. when it's fluctuate otherwise life is sorted few of my poor frnds has almost changed their lifestyle because of steem and crypto all in one a very good post indeed
Point
I think all the crypto's are back in business. BTC, Etherium, ripple are the top three. Steem dollars are ranked somewhere near 20 . I think 19 is the rank. The value is going crazy high. I wish it gets even higher. @charles1
Good point however if its too expensive then we cant buy more isnt it? anyway steem and top cryptos will even be more expensive by year end
Yeah hopefully
GREAT POST
what is good about the post?
Bitcoin is very down in this time it is a bad news
why is it a bad news? why not see it as an advantage to buy and hold
Terima kasih atas ilmunya
Itu sangat membantu
Long term I don't think sbd price is sustainable at this high of a level.

Good question for spammers
Ben sanal paradaki artış için sevindim... fakat siz bizim mutlu olmamızı eleştiriyorsunuz !!
What ?
Hi, can anyone tell me what a begginer in this community should do?
Read my current and older posts for tips on how to succeed here.
I think there are
many/some flaws in Steemit system, (it rewards first adopters rather than good content) but for now it's one of the best social media systems out there.I'll stick to it (and wish for it's improvement) but I'm sure a better system will come out in the future, hopefuly steemit would change it's system rather than being beaten by a competitor.
Good point however all successful coins/ tokens price rewards 1st adopters isnt it? ask Bitcoin
Yup, I know it's in their own rights... But when they abuse (or look like abusing) their power by voting only to themselves, it still feels unfair.
As I said... It's a good system but I think there are some flaws that I wish be patched.
Good point, however there are no 100% efficient platforms out there. I hope they fix their limitations asap
Sir litecoin price increase day by day and i think it price double in some day.
And i think steem price 15 next month
Good point however I dont think so fast but steem will surpass that price by year end
Cool
spammer?

spam...what do you like about the post?
Steem is a good coin to hold for the long term. In the event of a crypto apocalypse which is bound to happen some day all scam coins will die, steem and bitcoin are amongst the few that will survive.
Good point..I agree

Great post, I really like the idea and the support you see around the community. I wish I was more involved, but I am working on it. Upvoted and resteemed!
Many were predicting Bitcoin and cryptos would be moving higher as we got to Feb 16th and after Feb 16th.
Chinese New Year is behind us
I'm also curious about what will happen when more and more will join the platform. I really believe in Steemit but it's hard to imagine what kind of influence will a huge influx of new people will have.
Good
Steemit good...

Thank you @charles1 for this article,, I'am is Acenis and new members in the Steemit and now I stay in Egypt
Muy interesante tu publicación, yo soy nuevo en steemit y tengo mucho que aprender todavía, pero lo que escribiste da cierta tranquilidad. voy a seguirte para continuar mi aprendizaje.
Cant wait for Steem to Take off more. But wait for me to get on this train! haha
There will always be ups and downs in the market, but the truth is that steem ecosystem is super. The right time to invest is when the price is low as you said. Nice work.
