Yes Hive requires a lot of balance between earnings and good management. Ultimately I think it is the same in a business context. For example, if a business is only focused on earnings and not the longterm vision, the business eventually fails.

The only reason that is a bad analogy is because Hive can not fail in the same way a business would. Like even if the token because super cheap that doesn't stop the platform from working it just means people can buy more HP for less $s.
