Ever since Hive went above $1 and didn't go back under that threshold it's been almost like a dream come true. Sure the blockchain purists will be like:  " it's all about the technology, and why do you need price validation ?".  It's pretty simple really, it doesn't feel good investing time and effort into a project that might fail and that no serious investor cares about. So when prices stay at a decent level that's a clear sign to my simple little mind that there is enough going on for all that effort to be justified. At the end of the day it's all about the unplebing process, and you can't do that if you hold worthless tokens obviously. 

The only little snag is that besides my OG supporters, upvotes have been scarce since prices went up, not sure if there is a flood of more worthy content or people become more selfish when their vote is worth more but it is what it is. Not complain at all btw, still super grateful for the amount of support and funny comments I receive every day both on Hive and Noise cash. It's just that I imagined this pseudo bull run being a bit more clown friendly when it comes to earning the shinny virtual monnies. 

So when the markets will go tits up at least I'll have earning more tokens to look forward to even if they will be worth far less. Those bags are not gonna fill themselves :)
