$HIVE may have hit an all time low recently, but we are still here and still doing better than the legacy coin. Blocks are still being processed and people are still developing.
Some blame the price on how much is given out by proposals. Several of them will expire in the next couple of weeks, including the big one to fund the work of 
The economics of Hive are tricky in these circumstances and we have to consider what needs funding. I would hope that more projects can be self-funding, but the rewards system may not be enough.
You can have a say by voting up proposals and if you want less of them to get something then vote up the Return Proposal as that sets the threshold.
I have not seen a post, but there was an announcement on the 
@igormuba featured on the Hive Thrive show this week. That is every Tuesday on Discord where anyone can turn up to chat. He has been writing some posts about the Hive economics. We should be talking about that.

That does not have to be confrontational, but if you want that then you can find it. There is a low tolerance for anything seen as abuse and people will react accordingly. If you do not want it then stay away from such people.
Stay well and Hive five!
