I think there are lots of things going on at the moment. Throwing in the HIVE situation, it doesn't make it any easier. I think it will work out in the end though. In my opinion, HIVE will have a stronger path in the future.

1. it has lots of good developers that are staying with the chain. Some of the best developers here on Steem will continue their work on HIVE, which will have an important impact for its future.
2. It will have far better name recognition. The Steem blockchain is known in the crypto-sphere, particularly of late, but it is not well known to people who aren't familiar with the space. In the long run, having the HIVE environment is going to be a much more successful area to run a crypto business. The Steem name is too similar to the steam gaming platform so it’s really difficult to talk to gamers about it, for example.

The scenario is difficult for sure, but with people like Justin and Ned controlling massive amounts of the tokens on the chain, it's been a recipe for this to happen for a long time. I'm glad we are finally able to shed those negative actions and perceptions.

For the next few months I will be curating only on Steem, if anyone is left that I engage with, and focusing my attention on the HIVE chain. We can of course recommend to anyone on the Steem chain to come over to HIVE through our interactions. I think the HIVE chain will have a large presence in the beginning and level off, but then continually grow for market cap.
