Yes, the [market](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-market) is down. To you this may seem frustrating while to another this is one big [opportunity](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-opportunity). How sweet it always is to sweep valuable [tokens](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-token) at a slashed [price](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-price). Maybe many of us should start seeing a declined [Hive](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-what-is-hive) price as [discount](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-discount-bond-4wvryq) selling. I have been here for a while and one thing seems sure, this market always winds back to where it [ALL](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-all-currency) starts. We will be delving in on why you should not be panicking even when Hive is trading within the $0.18 to $0.20 region.

This is not about trying to praise this platform but seeing the [underlying](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-underlying) fact of both directions benefit. I once read a [book](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-book-) where the [writer](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-writer) said, he makes [profit](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-profit) in both market directions. Hive is just that typical example. Of course the market is [Red](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-red-2011-film) almost everywhere. [Bitcoin](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-bitcoin) is still trading above 100K no doubt but the smaller token are suffering more fate of declined candlesticks. Donald Trumps regime is not entirely working out as first expected. Maybe not yet; [trade](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-trade) [wars](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-war) is not market favoring. Physical war combat adds on, [investors](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-investor) uncertainties sets in and some market moves are facing a halt maybe.

How do you benefit from a downtrend market? For most [ecosystem](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-ecosystem-digital), you'll have to [buy](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-buy) the dip. This is where Hive is more advantageous than many ecosystems. How can you benefit from a falling market without having to invest more direct money? Your [delegations](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-delegation-hive) can do wonders, your stake too and adding to that your [articles](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-article). Let me focus more on article writing (investing your [time](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-time) to buy the dip). I feel one of the best times for more engagement is a falling market although I will advise to stick around at all times. 

Working on HIve is all about understanding and applying a win-win strategy. For me, a declining market is just a 'wait for what is coming' [statement](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-statement). Get more engaged in the platform. If you have some extra bucks to buy the dip still good, even if it should dip after your earlier dip buy, your articles and daily engagement is likely to salvage the entire situation. We should be used to the market by [NOW](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-negotiable-order-of-withdrawal-account-now); here, zigzagging is real, your concern should be how to continually stay in [gains](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-gain).

Many are waiting for Hive to [moon](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-moon-celestial) to $3 or $10 before they accept it is a good [investment](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-investment). There is nothing bad about this growth anyway. Nevertheless, has  your [APR](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-annual-percentage-return-apr) after some [years](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-year) not salvaged the earlier dying market situations. You just have to punch your calculator to see many of these underlying benefits. Hive is a proof of web3 and if we could consistently push its adoption, I see an [economic](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-economic) revamping. There are few platforms who will ever think of operating this way. I am not saying there are no flaws here, yet when weighing advantages on the [balance](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-balance) for once you have to admit the vision.

I joined hive without investing a dime of my bucks at early inception. How many other opportunities have I involved in that folded away with money? Let's not go there, these are [stories](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-story) one wishes to forget at a glance. It sounded funny to me when I was told all I have to do is to be involved in daily activities (at least engage, curate and put up some articles). There are secondary activities like staked and delegation anyway but the earlier is still very productive. 

I wrote an article yesterday about [easy  yield, easy dividend](https://inleo.io/@daniasi/easy-yield-easy-dividend-3yr) and Hive has proven just that. The future of the middle class [entrepreneurs](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-entrepreneur) and investors hangs on how web3 can salvage the economic [Crisis](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-crisis-1950-film). Not all are accredited or [whales](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-whale) investors. If one could find a platform to invest as little as half a dollar then it is one good place to be. Your time here counts too. How many spend their entire [day](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-day) loading [data](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-data) to watch and [comment](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-comment-hive) on web2 [videos](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-video) without any inceptives at the end of the day?

To conclude, let me add, yes the Hive market is down, see it more as an opportunity to stack more hive tokens rather than stay complaining. Time flies and before the end of the year we might be seeing hive hit back to $0.5 cents. It may not really make much sense to you but even if you found yourself stacking more hive at $3 dollars some years ago. If you could follow this strategy, I am sure, you have already bounced back to green ways.
