Interesting. There must be something about Hive that keeps the market open, but I think it is mostly that people are afraid for the krw. HBD doesn't seem to be less stable than the krw and it actually gives interest. I know Hive is the value that drives the whole system here, but it's also interesting that the most one can make from curation is 13% while you can make 15% by just keeping HBD. In a few days HBD withdrawal is possible while power down would take a long time.

There are two kinds of scared. One kind of scared is afraid of missing out on a good thing. Another kind of scared is afraid that what I have is going to be worthless and impossible to sell. Both of these fears are unwarranted as they are based on things we do know yet. I was concerned there would be no market for HBDs in Korea next year, but now I know there is always a market as long as roundbeargames is around. The way the world is today, even Korea seems fine.

Merry Christmas
