RE:Price Appreciation Not quite sure why the bickering with the different bloggers. Ignoring it is the best remedy.
Turning to mining, unlike gold mining stocks where there are thousands of gold miners with 80% being scams (except the good ones) there are only a handful of actual crypto miners. I don't think I could even name 7. With the price of crypto where it's trading, do you really believe Hive is worth 2.40 ?? I think not. With actual institutions behind it now, I can safely say that in the future. 2.40 was free shares.
When I start to see hundreds of crypto miners starting out, or government regulations which will happen, I'll be way out. However, that's a few years out. Until then, I'm happy holding and watching Hive only to rise as it's the only Eth miner along with other great things happening.
Cheers.
