HIVE is almost 50% up from the recent lows, so that's good.
The HIVE blockchain might be ideal for agents to interact and pay each other. We have no gas fees but we do require some HP to obtain the RCs needed to transact but it is minimal and isn't spent, just staked to earn the constantly recharging RC. We have the ability to do micropayments of as little as a thousandth of a HIVE which is now about $0.00005.
So we have a decentralized database that is almost free to use, and we have payment rails that are easy to use. We just need someone to create a use case for this. And the data can be free form text with embedded pics and videos (like normal posts) with the ability to reply, but it can also be machine readable json data like Splinterlands uses to store its game data.
Maybe that's the answer. Some new game can use HIVE for its item marketplace, storing the data in our decentralized database and having agents to do some market making and whatever else they may be able to do.
So while HIVE may never become a big social network, there really are other things our blockchain might be ideal for, and AI agents using the chain for their database could be one.
Have a nice day!

People are already using it just for carrying data, e.g. the podcast notifier. Micro-payments have generally had issues with fees and speed, but it counters those. The whole landscape is changing fast, but I hope there is still a demand for people actually interacting with each other.
