BTC fell around 5% in the space of minutes today and the alts fell harder with average losses of around 10%

But this is not the story for STEEM & SBD which are both currently on their way up.

SBD had been holding at around $1 for the last month but is now surging thanks to Korea's Upbit exchange.

A massive 82% of the volume is coming from the SBD/KRW pair.

Anyone remember the last time this happened?

Week after week it kept going up... and every week I would kick myself for selling my SBD the week before!

So, this time I am hodling that SBD all the way, to see where we go with this.

Love the Koreans!

Optimistic prediction: BTC and most alts will crash, except for Steem which will become a "crypto stronghold" for investors and raise to >10$ !
It seems to me like Steem is the only coin with a community that is not only in it for quick speculative gains, thus users will keep buying.

Nothing wrong with a bit of optimism :)

Wouldn't have it any other way!

SBD is up, but steem dropped 4 cents since last night.. pretty much to its lowest point in 18 months. A great time to buy and most likely it will recover soon.

Watching STEEM on Bittrex it felt deceptively like a little pump, listing it at 5% increase at the time of writing. Looking on coinmarketcap it is down 4%.

Like you say, it's a good time to buy!

These coins are so volatile that I have had to take a long term view. It is possible to really profit in the short term by knowing the moves in advance, but it gets tiring keeping up with it all!
