Now, something else: you say to power up here on hive, if all the small fishes do that, we would change the situation. Which would be to meet at eye level wit the high stake holders.
But to come into the very same situation the high-stakers are already in, powering up of small stake would't do it. You'd have either to take some else crypto holdings of yours, or invest fiat money. If you had either have already invested in other crypto-currency (which requires a lot of knowledge and focus and eats up your time), or being an early bird (making everything out of nothing), or that said fiat investment, you would be the whale you want to be. That would require that you have had that money as play money in the first place. Tell me, who has a.) enough play money and b.) who has the focus/ability to be good at it? Only those who spend high amounts of time and energy with that whole thing.
Since crypto is gambling, you need gamblers. I think most people aren't. Neither am I.
If you can supply your own food, you have no need of others.
If you can't supply your own food, then socializing is required, even absent crapitalism.
I can't eat all the okra I'm going to get this year, so I will give some away.
On any given tuesday the workers can continue doing the work while refusing to pay to get that work back, and everything is free for all workers.
We have to have workers, we don't have to have dollars.™

Probably take some socializing to get that message adopted by the masses.
As for having power in the hive, IF we assume that crypto is the future of some percentage of the money whole, then more is better, no?
The question then is, how much of each should we hold.
Only you can decide that.
Will holding hive bring more return than holding fiat?
Will holding hive bring more than farming potatoes?
Will holding btc bring more return?
All questions that each individual will have to determine for themselves.
I can only tell you what is right for me, and I could be wrong about that.
Mass adoption of hive can only come from the whales selling, the inflation alone will not press them from their perch.
I'd recommend learning to trade with money you can afford to lose.
Trading markets is the highest sacrament of crapitalism, it's why wall street banks reserve it for people that already have too much.
Until the people are ready to turn their back on the banks, and corporations they control, we can only expect more of the same.
Probably should account for this reality in any prognostications.
I wrote something on blurt in response to the topic:

It's not directly related to our conversation but that is my chain of thought.
I live in the city and there is nothing I can grow for food. People I know know nothing or not much about what you and I think we know. People aren't the least bit interested, I'd say. There's not much you can do about it unless, like in my last comment, you want to live completely without friends and family.
As for learning how to deal with cryptocurrencies, yes, that's for everyone to decide. I'm not going to delve into the matter of crypto trading because it would take too much of my time and my actual focus. If you're serious about it, you have to become an expert in this field. Of course, what you say is true, it's better to have something of something than nothing at all. Whatever you bet on, though, it's always a gamble with the unknown.
