We need more users, more uses, more everything.
I certainly agree. However upward price movements can only bring more people to HIVE.
Also we must understand the Crypto market is mostly controlled by speculators and centralised exchanges. Market is controlled by fear and greed of people.
From my personal view the powe rdown period must be reduced to make more people to stake HIVE and this will allow HIVE to become more decentralised and community driven

I can agree on the power down needing to be a bit shorter. 4-5 weeks seems good and still keeps the existing security effect in place.
This would also make it more appealing for people who want to use have as a secondary income like those from economically challenged countries, As they would be able to withdraw more HIVE faster to buy their food and pay bills etc.
Coupled with already being worked on stuff like RC delegations, governance fixes. Everything is already ear marked for fixes in the next hardfork subject to community debate of course.
