Thank you so much for the mention @bozz! Activity has drastically changed. I have to say that for me I haven’t invested any funds, but only my time and efforts here for the last 3 years. You can look at my wallet and see that lol! I was supposed to be a Dolphin by now! 😅

I can imagine the frustrations and disappointment of those who have invested their time and money into this plattform. I know that the price of Steem has a lot to do with the massive leave but also the powering down of big accounts scared people away too. I know some people who quit their jobs to become a full time blogger here so you can imagine how they feel. But everyone knows with crypto you are taking risks diving in and investing and nothing is promised.

So for me I choose to stay here and remain dedicated to the community’s I contribute to because I enjoy it! It’s not an obligation or a job but only enjoyment and that’s why it’s easy for me to hang around. It makes me sad how things are right now though. Sometimes when you post you hear crickets out there in the plattform and not many responses. But if my posts and contributions can encourage just one person then it’s still all worth it to me. Steemit has helped me learn so much and to become a better writer/blogger than I would ever imagined I would be. It has helped me find new interests and to reach creative heights I had no idea were in me. This is my pastime, my hobby away from work at home so I don’t plan on going anywhere.

I’m not sure what the future holds for Steemit but I do know when you find something this Awesome it’s hard to just let it go when things seem not promising. I do pray for a miracle in that things will pick back up and the prices will drive high again. We need a revival up in this place! 😂

I appreciate you continuing to go strong as well! You’ve formulated a great list up there! Most of whom I follow ;)
