Well dang,...
I guess then this is the reality where you, yes, you, dear reader need to start helping with the heavy lifting around the hive.
No, we don't need more blogs, we need more traders.
The all powerful, and magnificent, core devs have bestowed the blessings of an internal market upon us.
No trading fees, no withdrawal.
It can all be done from your hive.blog wallet.
Or, this wallet.
Or, any number of others that I don't use.
One of the non-core devs, 
Contact him for further information.
You do have to grant active key controls, so use an alt account and not your main money account.
You can instantly revoke this permission in your peakd wallet at your convenience.
I can help you out IF you need more accounts.
You can also use the swap feature of the hivehub.dev wallet to do it yourself.
Simply pick either hive or hbd to profit in and trade accordingly.
You plug the numbers into the swap feature and, viola!, profits in which ever form of hive you like more.
The reason today is the day for you, dear reader, is that at some point the people currently carrying the collective load will tire of doing that for the restivus.
On that day it will be up to us hivizens to carry our own burdens.
We will also have to catch whatever they dump as they exit.
Presuming enough of us step up, this shouldn't be an issue.
If the core 'community' here can't carry our own water, we can't expect the platform to persist once 'they' get tired of priming the well for it to produce for the restivus.
As things are, those 'evil whales' have been giving us this support for free.
We have been deriding them while they held up the entire financial value of the platform.
Lucky for us they haven't tired of the game and dumped.
But, we can't count on this continued benevolence indefinitely.
IF you want to see hive persist as a thing, you will have to help out with the house cleaning that needs to be done.
Any profits, large or small.
Are you are tired of paying your masters to bomb children in far away places?
Perhaps it is time you pushed back on that.
A simple way that anybody can do that is to hoard your coins.
The fed buys coins at face value from the mint.
A dollar of change in your pocket is a dollar of value out of the banksters' pockets.
Stop playing in their shell game that allows them to play in the amusement parks from hell and shop in the human grocery stores.

The Trial of Billy Jack.
Billy Jack goes to Washington.
