Hey there,
Hive is the coin powering the Hive Ecosystem which is what all these dapps are built on.
In the future, as the project develops, more people will join and purchasing Hive as investments and for Power Ups are quite an incentive considering the increase in influence you will enjoy with more Hive Power.
And obviously, more people buying Hive creates demand and therefore, the price rises.
:)
Thank you for that clear answer, I understand it better now. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
