Please join an experiment: Don´t sell Hive for one week!

I hardly ever use the reblog feature, but for this cause, I have to do it to bring more attention to the urgency of the current Hive price issue.

Hive-on 🚀

Well, I can manage about it since I have no plan of selling Hive until it reach 0.30 again.😊😁 I hope everyone will participate on your experiment. 😊 Good luck.😊

I'm in. Not that my 70k HP mattered much :)

Not in the big boy group, but I certainly support. No change needed from me, haven't sold in 6 years.
I love !WEIRD experiments!

@ksteem, sorry! You need more $WRD to use this command.

The minimum requirement is 50.0 WRD balance.

More $WRD is available from Hive-Engine or Tribaldex

A nice iniziative!

@tipu curate

It's a good thought, but we need people to start buying to have any kind of pump in the price. Holding is great and wonderful, but doesn't really help at all because we need VOLUME, which Hive does NOT have.

I guess I'm in by default. 😀 Haven't sold any HIVE on exchanges in ages. And even within the ecosystem, my direction is usually the other way around, with some short to medium term variations.

Plus, I buy HIVE on the internal market weekly while the price is under 20c.

I can stop selling for infrastructure costs but I can't stop donations for medical and food emergencies. There's currently a baby in critical condition and I'm waiting to hear what's needed. That amount must be sold so the baby can live, everything else can remain.

Yo te apoyo ...

Great experiment. Reblogged!

I’m not the one selling.

Bitcoin macht gerade keine Seitwärtsbewegung !LOL

Ich glaube nicht das sich das wirklich bemerkbar machen wird, aber mal abwarten. Bin gespannt.

Cool experiment, also Hive DAO beneficiaries (Splinterlands, inleo, etc) and big Splinterlands players have to participate to see the effect.

The 1/3 of hive kept on the exchanges is likely the controlling factor here.
Who that is is difficult to know for sure.

We can strongly suspect that the people selling for daily expenses are not holding it.
Who can afford to take the risk of keeping hive on exchanges?

Somebody is supporting the price, when they get tired of doing that maybe we will reach the point where the price to power ratio is more likely to attract investors.
Unfortunately, that price is below 10 cents.
Any purchase above 10 cents does not give an attractive power bump to the buying account.

This price to power ratio may be the straw that finally breaks the hive's back.

Unless/until the ninjaminers are diluted we can expect no changes.
It was them that drove people off by the 100's of 1000's hoping to maintain their grasp on the whole.

Not selling is a great strategy, but those with zero dollars in their millions of hive can only be unseated by folks buying, and powering up, more hive.

A fork that gets rid of them or, at least, levels the field, is a viable, if unattractive, option.
As long as the top accounts have 20k times a minnow's power, or even 11k times, nobody is buying in to play the game and the best strategy may be selling until 'the whales' get tired of controlling the whole.

The 80k 90k hive taken by the top curating account split among ~8k authors/curators would attract a lot more authors/curators, instead it goes to one account.

The math of that top account no longer reaping the pool wouldn't be an even split, it would just devolve onto the next highest account.
This 'fact of the math' requires that more than just the top 1 or 2 be reined in.

I suggest a 1000mv limit on voting from the pool.
A person can hold more than that, and vote in their witness/proposals, but if you want to attract more users, it's not gonna happen until these 'facts of the math' are changed.

The top 20 accounts take 50% of the rewards each day.
Who buys in to make those with game breaking amounts even more game breaking?
8 years of declining numbers says not very many.

I've never sold any HIVE, and I've never powered down. In fact, with the current low price, I even bought tickets using fiat.
(yes, I'm kind of crazy, so that's not financial advise)

I don't want to sound bad or anything like that, but have you ever looked at the amount that comes out of some large accounts? You could get five members of that group you mentioned together, and it wouldn't take just one transfer from one of the accounts. You could see some shipments to binance on the account @hot1.dunamu

I know I am not a target market of your post and simply dont rank to the mentioned persons list, just wanted to note I was not selling a single HIVE for more than 220 weeks, so one more surely will make no problem for me.

I support the idea, one week won't hurt anyone, however it's unlikely that large stakeholders will join in. I'm not even talking about their willingness or not, but because they are large players, they already have a schedule of what to do with their assets, and if a liquidation is on their agenda, it doesn't make sense for their planning to go a week without selling.

Ich bin gespannt was passiert. Coole Idee auf jeden Fall.

Forget about selling $HIVE! In fact, I'm buying HIVE once a week with my two alternate accounts that play Splinterlands and unstake $SPS rewards. Over the last 2 unstaking periods, I've bought about 40 HIVE each week. Now my goal is to try and earn the September HPUM award. I got to day 19 in August before I goofed and missed a day. I hope more of my Splinterlands buddies start to spend more time on Hive's other dapps and invest/powerup on the blockchain!

Damn, that will be hard - but you are my friend, so let's see what I can do for you. :-)

Und jetzt noch was auf Deutsch:
Du weißt ja, was ich von HIVE halte: viel Potenzial, aber ernüchternde Realität, wohin man auch blickt. Aber eines muss ich dir lassen, du bist ein echter HIVE-Enthusiast. Hätten alle oder zumindest die Mehrheit der größeren Stakeholder diesen Spirit wie du oder auch @balte, wären sie also 'nette', unterstützende, ermutigende Wale, statt arrogantes Zirkelvote-Pack, wäre ich auch wieder dabei, auch mit Investment. Wird nicht so kommen, aber ich wollte dir meinen Respekt zollen.

I only sell HIVE once a month, and that time won't be for a while, so I'll gladly take part in this. Hope this experiment comes with good data for us!

I am not opposed to the idea ... but remember, @dalz already did the work on this ... until HBD stabilizer and the DHF are doing something different than what they are doing now, then the inflation is going to continue. I'm not going to sell any Hive next week because I'm not going to sell any Hive next week, but if I DID, it would not even dent what Hive's internal mechanisms are responsible for.

I also would like more people to understand: Hive is an altcoin, and altcoins lag Bitcoin tremendously. 90-99 percent of the value comes out in bear markets and throwing effort down that hole won't change it until the market is ready for altcoins to be up. This can be studied and understood from market data.

Now, I also read in these comments that a million people wanted to be here, and people protecting their gravy train drove them off -- if that is true, and every aggrieved person tells seven people, then Hive has a burden other altcoins do not, and it will take serious, focused marketing to overcome it. Hating content creators and blaming them for all that goes wrong has a cost: they are content creators. They talk. That's a problem if that million-number is anywhere near true.

As great as we know Hive is, Hive has to be accountable for its on internal mechanisms, understand its position in in the market and market cycle as an altcoin, and focus on making friends and not enemies. If we can't do that for more than a week, no one else in the world has to be bothered. Not selling Hive is a good idea ... we just need to address the HBD Stabilzer and DHF on that to see real change ... and then hang on and be patient and not alienate newcomers.

One week later.. that's pretty good.
