Thanks for bringing up the idea and most of all, thanks for doing wonders for the ecosystem yourself. In my opinion, the latter is the more important part - attractive projects rather than nominal changes that might do the psychological trick...or not. It's all the same if I have one of $ 0.8 or eight of $ 0.1 in the end.
Not saying it can't work because, honestly, I don't know. But I feel something else (like the hype mentioned and speculation) rules the market. And Hive better stick to its unique features. Or find more unique features.
