Great points and one that I would add are Airdrops. Let's not forget that Hive holders got Speak Network and Ragnarok airdrops, two major projects that are being built up on this amazing blockchain. And airdrops are given for both first layer and second layer tokens, based on the project participation.
That is true although they cannnot be counted on in the future. They might continue to take place but buying Hive hoping for airdrops might not be the best course of action.
