Is the success of any cryptocurrency platform was based only on its token price?
Dude, it has been a half of year since the hive has already reached its peak price. This time it was also going down like its parent coin called tron.
steem and hive didn't get a lot of interest from the users. The majority of users are sitll prefer using medium as the main blog to publish anything rather than use both hive or steem.
Steem and hive just like zombie platforms right now. I rarely seen people used it before.
i think that it is different situation, first of all, Hive is not under Tron, Steem is under Tron, and Hive is hard fork from Steemit, due to their acquisition by Tron foundation, and Justin Sun centralized decision making process
Hive had successful hard fork 24 few days ago, that should make them better in the future, and has some very good projects in gaming industry, that are on Hive because low transaction fees, namely Splinterlands, that has many users and thriving ecosystem
price is not following at the moment, but would not call it zombie platform at all, there is no hype right now, but that could be a good moment to invest in the project, when there is hype and price movement, it is usually too late (do not take this as a financial advice in any case)
