I agree with a lot of what was said here and the point at the end about a future where dapps are acquiring large amounts of Hive for the resource credits is similar to thoughts that I've had.

Years from now we might look at Hive as a miner token for RCs. Some dapps with limited start-up capital may also opt to lease RC delegations rather than buying large amounts of Hive which will create another income stream for holders.
