Will Steem slowly die one day?

Sometimes I really do not understand what is happening to Steem. Day by day, Steem seems to be losing its strength. Earlier, the value was around 0.14, but now it has fallen to nearly 0.06. When I see this, a fear comes to my mind. Will Steem slowly die like this? Will the Steem platform and the Steem forums also disappear one day?

Today, many people are leaving and writing on the Steem platform. We can clearly see it when looking at the contest entries. Even for us, there is no real motivation to write a post anymore. Earlier, people were active, comments were meaningful, and rewards felt fair. Now, many feel their effort has no value. If anyone knows the real reason behind this situation, I kindly ask them to explain it in the comment section below this entry. We do not like to hold on to something that gives no value to our time and effort. That is the simple truth.

This situation is not only about a platform. It is similar to real life, too. If any person would not value our presence, our work, or our feelings, we decide to walk away from that place. No one likes to stay where they feel invisible. Steem platforms are the same. People stay where they feel respected, motivated, and rewarded.

If things continue happening in this way, I feel that in a few months, only a handful of users will remain on Steem. That thought makes me sad, because Steem once had so much potential.

I truly hope that someone who understands Steem well will come forward and explain the situation clearly. If anyone can motivate members again and give them hope, maybe things can change. Otherwise, it feels like we are preparing for the final farewell of this platform much sooner than we expected.

Thank you for reading my post.
