I think price being down is terrific as new or commited Steemians are able to boost their positions more cheaply.

I agree and even though I don't have much to put in currently, I have tried to make a few adjustments to add a little more :)

The boring stalwarts like us calling for little system change will do really well out of Steem - whilst those who are calling for major change for some short term gain, are likely to hand their stake over cheaply. Such is investing.

Boring and patience make small moves that add up over time, small mistakes that are easily corrected to.
