Thanks for the insights Steve. I've just upvoted Hive on CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap. I have used 1/30 witness votes and voted for some proposals.
My main reason for posting on Hive is not about money. It's about having my writing read. Even though the read-to-vote ratio is very low, It's still worth doing.
I have no posting targets. I post when I have completed a walk or finished an article. In the same way, I only post when I feel I have something constructive to say.
I've had other blogs, but this gets the most attention. I want people to read what I write.
