I think it's important to keep in mind that we are seeing a rise in bitcoin but not to forget that you pretty much have to buy bitcoin in order to buy other cryptocurrencies like Steemit. Hopefully we will see huge volume movement in Bitcoin as people try to protect their stores of wealth inside cryptocurrencies. I think it bodes very well...even though it might be largely speculative. Just look at bitcoin's value in India...higher % than Canada because people are using it to protect their wealth already.
