it also allows us to support our Planetauto community contributors.
I am hoping that more and more, this is going to be how communities grow, with active builders who support all facets of the ecosystem, including the return for consumer participation. Wouldn't it be awesome to have a very high HIVE value and have people supporting the your community in the comments section? The coming hardfork helps a bit in this way as it will not penalize comment voting like it is now.
We have multiple income streams as well as a crypto portfolio, also since the days of Steemit, in Hive we've seen more genuine people, rather than Great Post etc.
These people will return and perhaps it is a good thing - as long as they aren't rewarded for it. It can add comment mass, but the rewards go to useful comments.

As do we, the challenge we're facing and it's one we've never experienced before, due to the OCD contest and the influx of posts its spurred, we're now rewarding every entry on top of our previous contributors, we're running out of Hive to reward.
Every reward that comes in we either Powerup or buy Hive when the price dips in the market, then power that up. Right at the beginning when the price was way higher and we'd just launched Planetauto reviews we used to convert it to FIAT and buy tripods, lens, sliders etc.
The Fork especially with what you've outlined is really going to make it easier, I also see the benefit in more comments and yes a higher value would certainly allow us to reward either higher or more, the key is to make sure there not problematic to the posts, bullying etc also rewarding commenters who add value to the OP means more will participate moving forward.
