Would You Swap Your "STEEM" for Another Crypto?

Each to their own, I say. That's always been my motto through life. Everybody has a freewill to do as they choose fit and on the STEEM blockchain, it is open to all to see. I noticed a few big accounts from the good old days powering down and sneding it straight out the platform. I can only assume that it's going into some other blockchain-based project also promising the heavens and more to it's users. I say fair enough, but it did get me thinking...

What crypto currency would you exchange for your stash of STEEM? What project looks like it'd end up being a safer investment instead of the one this platform offers? I'm sure the opinions on this would be as extreme as the historical price movements of STEEM itself. Some would probably sooner choose anything else "but" STEEM whereas another cross section might be looking for a little portfolio diversity. Regardless, it is a gamble to some degree, which ever path is chosen. Arguably some less or more so than others.

Well, I like to work with facts and what I see is a tangible and working product. I consider STEEM to fit that bill nicely as we have an implementation of SMT's that performs seamlessly. So the blockchain is clearly robust and does what it says on the tin. Which other blockchain is comparable? And I mean that with the most open of mindsets. Which cryptographic blockchain in existence, outside the confines of lofty promises, delivers what STEEM does? I can't think of any, although I do know that technology-wise other blockchains "can" compete and in some cases outperform us, in various aspects.

So this is more of a personal interest to me, than trying to ascertain anything informatoin bearing more substances. If you are powering down or wish to part with your STEEM, what other crypto do you consider better or, at the very least, a wisely hedged bet. Would be really intriguing to find out.
