Some perspective on "Catching the falling knife"

On days like these it's easy to get reminded of how easily spooked people are. So I thought I'd share my perspective and why I think this is such a great day to get invested in Steem.

Most of us woke up or came home from work to this sight:


Now, you can view this in two different ways.

Alternative one:
Oh no, everything is going to crash, the sky is falling down.
Alternative two.
Oh look! I can now purchase more steem for my BTC!

I opted for alternative two today. When I got home from work, the excitement was real when I realised I'd be able to get some steem at summersale!

So how can you be sure you're not just another idiot catching a falling knife?

Well, you cant. For me it simply comes down to asking myself one simple question, - "Do I think steem/steemit will grow over the next year?" If yes, I invest whenever the price dips. You can never time the market perfectly, so instead I just buy a little whenever the steem is on sale.

Most of us probably plan on spending countless hours on this platform and thus it makes sense to invest some money into it to enjoy a fair share of the growth.

I think investing in steem on days like these is a great strategy and im happy I made my first purchase today!
