So since the start of 2018 steem has been going through the roof.
While on the 31st December it was still worth around 3.24$,
on the 3rd January it was already worth about 8.19$:
Since then the price has been slightly dropping again, but i still believe,
it'll go up in the next few days.
While i wrote this text, steem was worth 7.20$.
We'll see what the next days will bring us.
