Here is it bluntly: Few cared about $HIVE (or HP) before HBD was at 20% and it will be the same if it is changed.

Are you trying to tell me people care more about hive now with the high 20% APR?

User retention is down, active users are down, hive price is down and HBD never holds peg and overall market cap has fallen. What brought hive prices up was an single application called Splinterlands. Want price increase give people a reason to want hive and to use it. Not this constant hyper inflation.

At least that's my simple version of what I've been saying for a long time now.
