The news in term of development are actually decent, with LN getting closer to a release, so I think this is just temporary. 
Well you are right and it seems that this happen on march where we could see on when this thread was being posted. You are definitely right those times where just temporary and the cyrpto market get even a good increase that it almost doubled its market price. However, it repeat again as of this moment crypto market is almost crushing but i guess it is still temporary.
