Oh, I want to believe. I'm all in on HIVE, without any way (that I know of) to get back out to BTC or fiat. So I'm really hoping the future is bright for HIVE.

I wonder, if things go well and HIVE becomes a sidechain to a much larger project, could we be looking at x100 gains?

If so, I may still have a hope. I'm down far more than that, having held over the past 3 years. But with a x100 move I'd be at 110k, enough for a down payment on a farm, somewhere to try and start over before I'm too old.
