I believe that the hardfork will make people have faith on the steem blockchain and that can cause a massive increase on investments on steem and the increase in

investments will make the demands for steem to increase and when the demands are increasing it will

also make the value of steem to increase,,i believe that the steem price will reach more than 3$ after the hardfork,though it might not happen immediately but it will happen soon after the release of the hardfork...
