Brilliant pen down thoughts mate! I am unable to understand how come Bitcoin value is keeping on increasing...well you are right about human's habit to only follow what is trending!
Sometime I just wonder what will happen if Steem just happen to reach at least one quarter of Bitcoin value...Is it a dream or it can become reality!?
Might be possible, if Bitcoin holders understand Steem is a worthy project to fund to onboard communities on the blockchain.
