Good day Steemian and welcome to today's Steem price update for 26/1/2021.
I have been posting the Steem price update since almost the very beginning of Steemit.com back in 2016 along with other content.
Many have came here to discuss the daily Steem price's and recent STEEM changes for now over 4 years.

If you tire of addictively looking at the charts every few minutes then instead just relax and look here for the average daily STEEM price for your daily plan or strategy.
And even if you are not planning to do anything with your STEEM I still recommend checking out these updates every so often.
So without further ado lets take a look at today's Daily Steem Price for 26/1/2021.

🐬💕❤️💛💖💚🏆

Here we are already approaching the end of January and the few shops that are allowed open are getting ready for Valentines Day already 🙄💕. Well the weather I thought had improved but the last 3 day's have again been very cold at least yesterday the sun was out and I feel like it definitely wasn't as cold but yet again it was very cold. I noticed this while I was out in the garden clearing a plastic box which had some flowers in, I needed the extra box to clear out a few things from the small room that runs the electric and gas of the house. It was discovered that the pipe that runs the gas is going rusty, this is definitely not good news at all for if it leaks gas.. anyway hopefully I can get someone round soon to fix the issue. I have usually been going to sleep later and glad I do or the neighbour would wake me up with he's car🚗. Yes that's right the new neighbours across the road to me I believe are car fanatics 🚗 which is not a problem, but what does annoy me is "I believe it's the son who is working night shifts" he as this annoying habit of just sitting in he's car for about 8 whole minutes practically every single night at a late hours just running a very LOUD motor 🚗 and does this 4 times on occasion! They own some really low end cars and so I have no doubts that the son as put inside that car one beast of a motor as honestly the noise is downright annoying and depressing it's like being at a concert next to the speakers, you can like feel the vibration. The past 2 night's I have gone to sleep earlier and seem to have been able to either sleep through it or perhaps he had not worked the night but last night he was at it again just past 11 argh. Today I had a late shift and once again got the pointless job's and while I normally don't mind the superior who was in it does annoy me when I'm practically the only one getting the work done around there while everybody else seemed to of had nothing much to do, I know this is because I know all the procedures but still.. Normally this time of year it seems to be some kind of routine ritual to give out extra pointless jobs that they want you to do yet take them seriously and get them completed. So today I also finally discovered what had happened with the security guard 👮‍♂️ I had to go abit out of the way to get the information but wanted to know as I get on with the guy really well. So basically what had happened was that a thief 👤 had robbed a local nearby store and one of our staff members had seen the thief running away with the goods, well it seems this guy was on a mission on that day because he was apparently hanging around near the entrance of our building and the colleague who had seen the thief earlier mentioned that was the guy who robbed the store! Our security guard 👮‍♂️ overheard this and noticed the guy was either planning to rob one of our staff or was trying to break in and so our security guard went to speak with the guy asking if he needed anything the thief basically turned nasty and started swearing and threatening to use he's knife on him, security called for back-up and the thief👤 ran away, there was basically worry that he would try again but as so far not been seen. Today was definitely much quieter out and I like it this way as the other day after work I went to go meet a friend as it's been a long time since I had really done that, I would say about 3 weeks, as with work and the lockdown I didn't really get round to seeing anybody. But wow were there a ton of people out again I know it was a Saturday but gosh why do people still go out in trucks-loads at the weekend when most aren't even work during the week? It's like even without going to work due to the lockdown people are still programmed or something to go out only during the weekend. Strangely it seems the 💉druggies were not out in force on the day, I reckon it was too cold even for most of them, but I still saw some loner druggies walking about checking out the usual spots looking confused for their friends. It's just insane the stuff that goes on, there was even a report on a woman who called the police on 🍔McDonald's staff because they refused to serve her breakfast after they stopped serving the breakfast menu, I mean seriously there are 15 year olds dying left, right and centre and this woman thinks wasting police time on something like that is worth it? As for crypto I'm using a different wallet as I had to get some Bitcoins unstuck, the wallet doesn't support STEEM so to exchange your money it must be moved once again and while I managed to save my coins I'm unsure if I want to try that process again as it seems to be more costly and more things can go wrong with the process. But I guess for the moment I must wait and watch Steem closely for when will be the next best opportunity to strike 🥊 or in other words buy more STEEM. So 2 days ago it looked like Steem might have fallen to $0.17 but it's nice to see it's holding at $0.18 for now.

💚We saw recently in January STEEM almost reach $0.24 but unfortunately even with these insane 💰$41000 Bitcoin prices STEEM as continued to not move much, which is such a shame as people should be investing into this great coin as you can do so much more with it, but oh well it means I can keep collecting it at a cheaper price for myself. Since the rise back in March 19th last year taking Steem to $0.40💛 seems to be the only real bounce we have seen in a while now so let's see if any action occurs in 2021. The lowest Steem price this year as been $0.15 and the highest $0.23 which broke this years record on Jan 10th but since then the drop in bitcoin may have pushed Steem back, it would be nice to see if this year Steem can atleast hold above $0.17 for most of the year. Still this brings opportunity as it's a great price to "power-up" your account cheaply, if you are under 10000 SP you may want to consider getting some, I don't say this as a way to improve your financial situation but rather to enjoy the benefits of having Steem, like speeding up your account's Steem accumulation or how much Tron you gain and other general tasks etc, as after-all a small bump in price with those holding's would bring-in some nice noticeable benefits to those with some skin in the game.

💛 We reached "🐬TRIPLE DOLPHIN🐬" in November which means our collective STEEM POWER is now over 💪15000 SP!! There are around 616 Triple Dolphin accounts, and if you add together all that it's ALOT of Steem Power nearly 10mil, you going to join us!? We will of course continue to collect and lock-up even more STEEM! My new goal 🌍 is to reach 20.000 SP🏆, hopefully by June 2021. This is still not possible in our current situation but with a few more whale votes in these coming months we might just be able to get there. We are already off to a much better start than the previous run-up and so I also want to thank everybody who votes in and for their kind support. I have now been on here for over 4 years and have never powered down once, I also continue to invest into STEEM in small quantities, your votes can help with this also, but essentially all of this means that your votes are safe with me and help retain STEEM's value since being a "Top 450 Steem-Power Holder" it's beginning to count, your votes may even help make it go higher in the future with plans for purchasing more STEEM. We totalled 7.841 SP at the end of 2019 and reached 15.000 on November 24th and so if you want to help me on this quest "locking away 20.000 Steem Power" with the intention to support and retain more of it's value then please consider leaving your best vote below.

✺ Speaking of keeping things running the covid19 madness continues with us in lockdown number 3 at level 5. While there suppose to be differences between each level it definitely doesn't change the behaviour of people and so make's each one of these levels rather pointless. Lv-3 lockdowns were suppose to be the most strict, not anymore and so just how many more lvls are they going to keep making-up? I'm guessing until people listen..? And once again they are talking about stricter rules they keep saying this but people aren't listening. The mass vaccination process continues and I believe there is also some medicine used by those with arthritis that as been approved to fight covid. They are vaccinating the elderly first, it's said more than half have been vaccinated and also those who care for them will get the jab if enough are available. There will be a total of 7️⃣ mass jab centres where they hope to get the elderly coming in 24/7 to be vaccinated. ✺ After the elderly it's been discussed that teachers, shop workers and police could be prioritised in the next phase of the jab rollout. The most effective vaccine was said to be around %95 effective but it's also being reported that the same vaccine is actually somewhere between that and %33 effective against the covid. And so many reports are saying it's time that the government take a good looking into at what exactly it is they are rolling out here as many seem to be forgetting that this as not even been properly time tested yet. They firstly said this so called "cure" could possibly protect those who take it for up to 9 months, later they said it's only for 5 months.. well "possibly"? Not only that but they have said even with the vaccine you can still catch covid and still pass it on to others which makes no sense when they are thinking about letting the age groups who have had their vaccines back to their regular lives, wont they just be spreading it about again and putting hospitals under stress?🤷‍♂️ At the end of the day we simply don't know that much about the jab it seems it was very rushed and we don't really know what it can or can't do. There is also a guy in government who wants people to take the vaccine or get shut out from society by not giving them access to any businesses, meaning you wouldn't be able to buy food, attend a school, watch movies at the cinema or travel anywhere, to which I then don't see how exactly this would be giving the public the choice?🤷‍♂️ But it seems he may have changed his mind about that statement which seems fishy and perhaps rightly so as Mr Bill Gates is said to be working on the technological system for a vaccination type passport. I have worked all during this crisis as our company used a loophole within the system to keep us all working despite our government stating that all non-essential work places must shut-down. It was either work or be fired kind of attitude, and regardless of being in a lv5 lockdown my boss continues with us working. The food 🍔🍒 shortage problems I thought seemed to have sorted themselves out but going into shops and seeing many empty shelves and apparently on the news they are beginning to admit there are shortages and it's a big problem, there are basically hundreds of lorries stuck on the roads wanting to deliver but being stopped by officials.
