Steem Total Value Powered Up - $32 million - June 19, 2022

in #metrics3 years ago

This is next in my series of posts reviewing the amount and value of powered up STEEM on the Steem blockchain. For previous posts, see the end of this entry. I'm posting early this week due to plans for "Father's Day", so depending on what happens later, today's downloaded value may look different in next week's graphs.

Noteworthy in the last week,

  • With BTC now below $20K, the theme for the crypto markets, this week is, The bloodbath continues ;-).
  • In USD terms, STEEM was part of the carnage, but in comparison to other cryptocurrencies, the value of staked STEEM held its ground.
  • Week over week, the number of powered up STEEM declined by about 250K, or about 0.15%.
  • Over the course of the week, we saw two daily increases and no new highs in number of STEEM powered up.
  • At 41.61%, the series-long high as a percentage of market cap was recorded on April 26. Nearly all subsequent observations have been in the 39% range, so this was probably a fluke of timing in the way that CoinGecko updates their market cap and price fields.
  • The modeled value of powered-up STEEM lost ground against USD, SBD, and LTC. It gained ground against BTC, ETH, and TRX. Changes ranged from -18% against USD to +21% against ETH.
  • Total power-downs this week totaled 1.05M STEEM, which represented an increase of 19% vs. last week's 886K.
  • In terms of all comparison values except for TRX, and USD, today's locked value is higher than the January 1, 2022 baseline.


Here are the numbers as-of a few minutes ago:

Total value locked in powered-up STEEM (USD): $31,751,534.25
STEEM market cap $80,568,543.79

Great analysis, useful work. The data doesn't look very nice. It's nice that the staked steem has kept its place, but it has lost value in USD terms. Happy Father's Day.

The decline of the economy is not only in cryptocurrencies, inflation is increasing in different countries, even the most developed suffer from this scourge

This week, I think, there was an attack on Tron via USDD, but it was not successful. Tron investors and foundation are quite strong. If Tron is harmed, we as a community will certainly suffer. Having Tron strong will also make Steem stronger.

Steem will be greatly damaged by this drop unless there is an external correction and support.

This post has been featured in the latest edition of Steem News...

My logic regarding crypto is that if it can fall that quickly...then it can rise rapidly as well. Right now, I see it as a game of patience. The crash of Luna also strengthened the bear season too.

There is a decrease in the total value compared to last week. The entire industry suffered a major crash a few days ago. This is perfectly normal.
