It is a hard time and almost lasting for more then a half a year. I remember the time when Steem as well as other Cryptocurrencies shoot up and it was going day by day like that. But hey, we all know that if the rate goes up th en it will be time when it goes down too.

This very human thing we do not like to be patient, we lose our trust and panic, but I remember when everything was well everybody was talking about community and friends and social media platform and were creating their stuff. What happen now those one who are on Steemit only to earn they stopped their activity now, but we still see some people who try hard and producing their posts, original content, writing stories, creating art and bringing their stunning photogrpahy. But those ones are minnows and where are whales who should support those littles, without us, minnows Steemit would just fade and really stop exsisting.
I think we all have to try hard to be optimists and try to keep everything goes, the life as well as in Steemit is like zebras stripes after black one there will be a white stripe I am pretty sure.
