Ok, so SMTs will not be done anymore... that is why the price is so close to 0... It would have been a really easy way to create very interesting projects with very few efforts, where a lot of demand for hive would have shown up... but as it stands I do not see where such a huge bandwidth demand, like in the case of a 1000 different projects using this chain with their own tokens should come from.
Even the users who should be most interested in preserving their controversial content do not even mention it once... the dollar vigilante did not come either... this seems to be a dead project in my eyes... I have been an eager fan of this conceptfor years, but I see it now really dead, going to minimum valuations... They can take another year, I think it will not matter... there are new projects left and right, the visibility of this project is going to zero. Does somebody remember when Steem was Nr 3 in Marketcap and everybody wanted an account here? Hive is mentioned nowhere... and also now there is no budget in order to compete with other projects which are highly funded like Voice.
The only thing I can hope for is some pump in order to recover a fraction of the opportunity cost by participating here.
