Tbh the rises in Hive I think have been about Splinterlands and other Dapp growth. Not the basic social media aspect. Those dapps wont necessarily cause rises in Hive once Dapp assets can be traded directly for other crypto. Like I can do with Wax already. For some if the big ones it might be more profitable to leave Hive as their base chain / build their own. Theyd most likely still have assets in it like Splinterlands does on Steem. It's not like these people are reading this to actually see I'm ok with not self voting if that's such a huge deal to them or figure out what offends them so much they attack me. But I'm used that that irl. Online its nothing.
