Sometimes it just takes longer than you think. Nearly everything iv ever invested in has taken longer than i thought. I was so freaking bullish on bitcoin in 2012 but it was kinda not doing anything. That can make you think you are wrong because it just doesn't seem to be doing what you think it should. Fact is your/we are just early. When i first discovered Steem i was so excited like i was bitcoin. Since then Hive has really done something unique in the crypto world which will only serve to give it huge respect. I since doubled down on my investment.
