Well, thats the thing - we usually look at it the wrong way. 1 gram of silver is not worth $1 now, its the other way around. That may sound silly, but it isn't. Because the real constant is silver, gold ect., not the dollar. Nor Hive or any other crypto, for that matter. As I said, those are fiat currencies: 1 Hive has not more intrinsic value than a BTC - and thats none. They only have value because people believe that they do. A pretty smart guy once said: trading cryptos is about finding a greater fool than you are yourself. :)
1 gram of metal, on the other hand, is still 1 gram of metal - in 2 years, or 20 or 2000 years. And it still has value. At least it was that way since the humans know it.
