I do think HIVE has been pitched wrong historically because a lot of people try to live off it.
It’s very hard to live off something that’s volatile like a cryptocurrency. Post rewards go up and down due to a variety of factors. If we get way more users and HIVE marketcap does not go up a lot then people will make a lot less from posts.
I think the only sustainable way for people to have regular HIVE income is to become a good curator. But I love curating so I’m biased 😆
Hive should really be broadcasted as a hobby. Not "to earn" thing..
