A simpler way to look at it would be to compare HIVE in satoshi value, there is a certain time period where you could have done better, but for the most part its been a massive downtrend.
So you'd ask yourself if I put in X value into BTC how many satoshis would I have versus x value into HIVE how many satoshis would I have worth in HIVE
Also with HIVE having so little liquidity if you had any reasonable amount of funds, you cannot liquidate without massive slippage so only a few of your sell orders would meet that sat to hive ratio before pushing the price down
Thanks, that's a good way to look at it and good points about the price. I will take it into consideration for my analysis.
