Me too ☹

I hold a good stake od SPORTS too. I think I am Understanding that as the price of the token increase, the upvote amount will have to decrease to avoid inflation.

2 months ago, 1 SPORTS was valued at 0.0006 STEEM. But now, SPORTS have grown to 0.0015 Steem.

Many of the Tribe based tokens are being *burned* in order to increase their value. At least that is the theory as *rarity* of a token could make it more valuable, if there is a *demand*. 
<br>
The two SCOT (Smart Contract Organizational Token) I believe will be great in onboarding a great many new users is @sportstalksocial and @steemleo both of which are *burning* a great many of their SCOTs (tokens). Right now as, I write this comment, @sportstalksocial is ranked at #22 on [State of the DApps](https://www.stateofthedapps.com/dapps/sportstalksocial). It is the only SCOT-based Tribe I could find. 
<br>
The simple task of SCOT-based Tribes listing their DAPPS (Decentralized Applications) on [State of the DApps](https://www.stateofthedapps.com) would help their community and the reputation of the blockchain as a whole. As I perceived you were trying to get across in your video... **promote** the content and the DAPP!
<br>
There is a great deal of STEEM and SBD **Coin** on various exchanges external of the blockchain being speculated on. Anyone including J. P. Morgan, Facebook<sup>TM</sup>, and Alphabet, Inc. (Google<sup>TM</sup>, YouTube<sup>TM</sup>). The activity on these external exchanges (e.g., Bittrex; Poloniex, *which is owned by Goldman Sachs-backed payments company Circle*; Binance; Changelly, etc.) has a big effect on STEEM price, but of course you probably already know this (I have a bad habit of stating the obvious. I am not trying to be condescending as I barely know what I am talking about most times. Then again; someone who does not know these things might be reading this comment). Not much can be done about that situation. **Anyone can buy and trade STEEM or SBD Coins**.
<br>
Here is an idea for one of your next VLOGs on @3speak regarding SCOT and DAPPs (you are a much better speaker than me and of more well known). STEEM loyalists probably won't like this one and it is not an original idea. It is already happening with the likes of @steemmonsters aka #splinterlands (use STEEM and TRON), @dtube (use STEEM and Avalon), and @drugwars (use STEEM and DWD, used to have Future coin I think, well whatever), @spl (SCORUM and STEEM) why not *market our blockchain* to existing successful DAPPS that are not already here and why limit it to DAPPs how about targeting Apps/Websites? @rt-international (Ruptly), @lukewearechange, @coingecko are already here! Big names on the internet for sure! As you said, promote the content!
<br>
 Shoot, Facebook<sup>TM</sup> among many other companies is *reinventing the wheel*. Bring them and they will bring their folks. Remember back when @jerrybanfield joined and brought all his YouTube<sup>TM</sup>/Udemy<sup>TM</sup> folks? Hey, whatever works and *yes*, many of **us** are still here (another thing to get mad at Jerry about. At least in my case).
<br>
There is no doubt that the creators of #steem-engine and SCOT have *lit a fire* under @steemit to get the SMT (Smart Media Token) thing going with the introduction of the SCOT DAPPs and the introduction of the #steem-engine SCOT internal exchange on the STEEM Blockchain.  
<br>
Which will be better, SMT or the existing SCOT based Tribes? Will they co-exist happily? Will we all work together to come up with a *marketing strategy*? Like most things regarding STEEM, the foregoing questions are *way above my paygrade*. Just **my** thoughts. Just because I share them does not mean that I *think I know everything. **Even I am not that crazy!***

Absolutely true.
