If you are one of the lucky ones who bought a chunk of Blurt tokens when it was 60 Sats in Ionomy or 0.03 Hive/Blurt then you should be grinning by now. The price started to hike about 3 weeks ago and it has been consistently creeping up to 130-150 Sats. Soon, Blurt will be listed on Probit, STEX, & Beldex. If these potential listings become successful then the price could potentially shoot to 10 cents or even higher. And if this happens in the next few months then we will see fairly large growth in the user base of the Blurt community.

### Many of the newcomers will ask "Why should I stay?"
*About 6 years ago, I took a pause on my social media activities, literally stopped all my interaction with it except for the messaging apps which I used to communicate with my family. Why did I do that? It's for a simple reason that I don't find value in what I do. I feel like everything has no bearing.*
*And then 3 years ago, I was introduced to Steemit by my sister since she thought I will still be interested in posting some of my photographs. As she said, "it's like a social media platform where I could earn "monetary" rewards."*
**The rewards may sound like a good opportunity to monetize our social activity, but there's more to it than the obvious reasons.**
One of the main reasons that kept me motivated even at this "low price" is the "optimistic" people that truly believe in this technology. It also benefits the ones who are looking for a platform where they can express their "freedom of speech".
Some would ask, "do our work being valued here in Blurt?" I would say yes since this is a platform where each account is entitled to his/her own opinion. It will be up to a person or a specific community on which type of content will they support. Some would like to support crypto content while other curation groups are focused on lifestyle-based content. Although Blurt is just 3 months old, there are about 24 official community curators that were deployed during that period. There's enough attention for every account who are participating in this curation initiative.
Blurt is a vast ocean of diverse curators who are independently functioning towards a single goal ***~ to distribute token rewards to contributors and empower them in achieving their personal goals in this platform.***
As a final note, the Blurt network is a community of passionate people that are highly motivated to achieve success. Just by interacting with these amazing people is more than a good reason to stay in this platform. Not to mention the amazing development that had happened and is happening at the moment.
## Blurt-On!
