i think you might be able to correlate some of that up tick in the number of comments with the up tick in the Hive price as people hive-fived each other. I know I made a few more comments.
But, it is good to see the baseline higher here on Hive. I would agree it would nice to see it higher. According to @penguinpablo's daily hive stats we're averaging under 2ish comments a post. It would be nice to see more engagement per post. Let's grow the gap.
