Steem Strong Pushback (Fueled By Postponing SegWit2x?)
![Screen Shot 2017-11-09 at 1.30.30 PM.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmSSAmQdtCWt7q3vgs6a58LZGPvCymHPSFAipWCqdzzUvn/Screen%20Shot%202017-11-09%20at%201.30.30%20PM.png)
***
Since yesterday at around 4:30 PM, STEEM was on a constant rally, growing almost 20% (in less than one day). One strong signal for this may be the postponing of SegWit2X, a potential hardfork that fueled demand for Bitcoin - hence pushing the price up for about 2 weeks.

Coinmarketcap shows a 58.5% Bitcoin domination across the entire crypto spectrum, which may confirm the fact tat money is flowing back to alts from Bitcoin. Two days ago, Bitcoin dominance was 62%, on a total market cap of over $202 billions. 

A simple (and probably very, very inexact) calculus shows that 3.5% of this market cap, or around $7 billions, went "out" from Bitcoin and may flowing back to alts.

Whatever the reasons for this pullback, as always, enjoy it while it lasts.

Every time people see a fork, they move funds from Altcoins to Bitcoin, expecting to get some "air money" from the split. Then money flows back. I have seen this behavior twice.

might be correcting for a while. Hard to tell how much but I think there's still room for going down (and, subsequently, there's still rom for alts to go up).

I agree with you, but I was expecting a fast decrease in price, and it did not... just a few percents by now, which is not that much :) But the alts have just an incredible growth!

Isn't it a Push?  The price is going higher, not pulling back to a lower value.

Right then. Now is the time to go back to your 30 articles on crypto, re-read them so they are fresh in my mind and then go and buy some Bitcoin and alts. 

Time for me to jump into crypto land and start making some money. ;-)
