Steem got a solid rating from weiss but the lack of trading options is not good. Particularly the deposit/withdrawal block at Poloniex for steem and sbd, which has been going on for a month or so , should have been resolved a long time ago. To me, it signals a lack in leadership and/or care for customers. It does not come as a surprise to me that the downtrend of steem value coincides with the Poloniex block.
