Money makes money
That's right. Do you reckon that LEO has dropped because POB has shown up? Money from one goes into the other. Swapping back and forth, trading value, until the next one comes along.
This is why the price doesn't concern me because it's all just air money from the HIVE blockchain. There will always be another tribe. Someone with a large stake bought using curation rewards from another stake does not impress me and it's not solid stability for the tokens price. For that, you need "real" investors (something HIVE hardly gets that many of, so what does that suggest?).
It’s an insular environment at the moment. If we could attract more into the ecosystem then we could see significant growth!
