- There is an automatism: the more SDB in circulation - the more pressure for sinking prices
- there is less volume of SBD in the market in comparison to Steem and other coins (38 Mio. USD)
- a lot of crypto-"investors" don't really understand what they buy
- some of them buy SBD because they think it is a cheap way (market cap) to buy "shares" in steem
- because of the low volume rule 3 and 4 are stronger than 1 - temporarily
In the beginning of the year we have the 1:1 ratio of SBD and USD (green line). With the rising interest in cryptocurrencies the price rises too. When somebody burns bigger sums of SBD (purple) (promote or such things?) the price rises. In december the demand of new "investors" rises much faster than steem system can produce SBD, so the price rises. In reaction of rising prices more SBD is produced.
More authors don't power up with 100 % but get SBD as reward. They get more SBD-reward because 37.5 % of the reward is directly paid in SDB without any exchange rate like the steem part of the reward which is sinking with higher exchange rates. Authors don't pay a lot of SBD for promoting (burned) when one single SBD is worth 8 USD or more. So the production of SBD is high. There are more and more SBD in circulation and everybody hopes the price will again reach the high levels of 8 or 13 USD.
But I think the price will fall in the next weeks because the change in circulation is slower because there are a lot hoping authors who acts like the price will rise in future so they produce SBD. Only a near crypto-boom like in december will make SBD-prices rise as we have seen it in december but then steem rises too. So, over all it is better to buy steem then hodl SBD.

@azmielbanjary: thanks for resteeming
I am learning about voting and resteeming post I have done both I hope it helps us all grow
I wonder if people have more trust in SBD than in tether (USDT). However SBD Volume is too small to be a safe heaven for their "electronic" USD.
@steempowerwhale: Maybe I will print some SBD when the price rises. ;-)

Thanks for nice and informative post.
One question, if I buy steem, will it affect my reputation rank and rewards?
Only indirect. Reputation is influenced by the upvotes and downvotes (flag) of your posts. You get more rewards from curation and self voting if you have more Steem Power. Steem that isn't powerd up have no influence. If you have a lot of Steem Power more people will interact with you because they are interested in getting your upvote. So you have the indirect affection of your reputation by more upvotes for your posts.

The thing is, that SBD is only traded at Bittrex (at least >90% of the market cap) and I always wondered, how people even find it there and if they just buy it because SBD has a fancier name than "just" Steem. There is no question, that there will be more sellers in the near future, but I´m wondering, who the buyers are?? Who buys an IOU worth $1 for $4+?
I came up with many explanations, but one may be, that Steemit Inc. is keeping the price high and "playing" the market. A high SBD price is maybe the best marketing for the platform. Since there is only a very small supply, we should take this option in consideration....
@atmosblack: I don't think that manipulation is necessary. I like to invest regarding to the marketcap. I like to compare to other coins with similar characteristics, with a high developer activity and with low market cap in comparison to non-coin companies (like facebook). My first thought seeing SBD was: hey a good deal. But I only invest after understanding. So I have read about the inflation and so on. But I really believe that most of the investors of the boomphase didn't read a lot. That is the reason why prices of all coins go down as fast as they go up. Because a lot of "investors" didn't know what the hell they are doing. Keep acting on the ground of better understanding of the things you put your money in. Don't hesitate if you see some others acting unlogical.
I'm shocked that SBD has remained 'broken' from the $1.00 peg for so long. Once 'untethered' it's difficult to ever go back. Not unhappy about it, though. Get some discounted STEEM with our earned SBD and convert to Vests! Help those #redfish to grow.
