Today I reminded of some old incidents of my life. One is the story when I was in class 8. I worked really hard, literally burnt the midnight oil to get my name into first 3 positions in my class. When my result was announced, I stood 4th with a stunning percentage of 98.36. It was crazy. I was only 5 marks away from the first position. As I was 4th, there was no shield or prize for me, no matter how much marks I had acquired. The prize and shields were about the position; and there were better position holders than me.
There is another story. It is of my cousin when she was in class 8. She got first position in her class while she acquired B grade. She got the prize and shield for the first position. Again, the reason is the same. The prizes are meant for the positions. Well, she got the position because there were only 3 girls in her class and she stood the best among them with a B grade.
Getting a position in a particular place does not always depend on how well you perform. Sometimes, it depends on how bad your competitors perform; or simply on how much competition is out there. The lesser is the competition, the higher are your chances of getting more visibility and the higher prize. Recently, I won the first position in contest on Hive simply because there was no other contestant.
Let me come to the point for which I am telling all these stories. For the last few days, we have seen major dumps in the world of crypto. The value of Hive which had once reached near to 3$ and kept swinging between 0.8$ to 1$ for the last few months has now dropped to 0.38$. Looking at these dumps people are becoming less active on the platform. As 
Yesterday I noticed how quiet my Leo feed was and counted only 32 posts for the 24 hour period which must be less than half.
When there is lesser activity on Hive, there is a golden chance for the active users to earn the better rewards and also to gain the higher visibility. As we all know that success on a social media blogging platform doesn't depend only on how good content you create, but it also depends on how visible you are to others. Of course, it is easier to gain visibility when you are in a group of 10 as compared to when you are in a crowd of thousand.
It is just the high time to gain the visibility by simply being present on the platform during the dip's period.
I believe the ecosystem of Hive is durable, has the capacity to sustain the dip and the project is not going to crash. The price of hive will go up when the general crypto would show the pump. At that time the active users will get the most benefit.
