Steps.Let's take a look back:
1)Steps was announced on early September 2015 and ICO ended later the same month.
2)Since then,a big ICO investor dumped more than 1,5mio coins in 3 big phases and a lot of frightened investors followed him!
3)Steps never recovered the price of 1500sat which was a secure floor,because DEVS are not pump and dump lovers(quite rare in crypto).
4)Since September 2015 95% of ICO coins have failed,being abandoned and DEVS MIA!This never happened to Steps!5)Devs have helped a lot of coins since the beginning of Steps.This happened because they are quite respectable in the cryptoscene and because they have made new friends,as they are in crypto for many years.Helping other coins brought more investors and made the coin known to other communities.This was not bad for the coin.
6)Steps ICO price was 200sat.It never fell below that.Never!Check other ICO coins,pumped by DEVS to +1000% and then dumped by them,leaving investors and traders with useless coins.Now called scam coins,whatever their name was.
7)Why did people invest in Steps?a)Because ALT and GW are great programmers and coders and the proof of this is that other coin DEVS reach out to them when in need.b)they were clear from the beginning in terms of security (ICO held by respectable SebastianJU,code reviewed by Earlz,coins burnt and never staked,their personal addys posted in the OP etc).c)the future of the coin was secure because Andre Pierre (already a Hero Member then) had his name on the coin.d)The roadmap was clear.Marketplace included.Marketplace is still included.Delayed?Yes!Delayed a lot?Yes again!Postponed?No!Cancelled?Again,no!Other roadmap features have been delivered!
Steps holders hold their coins.Not because of the marketplace!But because the DEV team is here to stay!The marketplace is just a parameter of the coin.Not the coin itself!
I only see 3 users complaining all the time! troth,frog and ozboy! It's complaining-complaing-complaining!
You complain about marketplace:I wonder how many objects you will post for sell or buy when marketplace is launched!
You complain about the price:I have seen a lot of investors.I wonder how many coins each of you own!Seriously!
I would like to invite everyone to post their adresses,just to 'weigh' each and everyone's opinion.Let's be honest,and expose ourselves for once....
can you handle it?
Sorry for the personal reference to the 3 users,but to me it seems insane.It's like waking up every day trying to find something bad to say because you are mad or disappointed because STEPS coin hasn't made you rich overnight!
No one cares if you bought at 2000sat,or if you bought a few thousand coins at 200sat and wait to get rich in 2 months.
Steps is an altcoin.It's an asset,a stock.This is business.An investment.It involves risk,hazard,bad luck and many more unpredictable factors.
Sorry for the long post guys!
