Possibly the best moment to build your HIVE account
Don't get me wrong... I am not enjoying at all of the lack of active people that we are experiencing lately. From more than 200000 Active users reached on early 2018, in the peak of the previous Bull rise, we have landed to 25000 active users on April this year, despite currently, according to @arcange stats we have grown till almost 32000. I agree, this number is not so huge in comparison with the rest of the big social media but it is not so far from the number of active users we had when I first start on HIVE more than 3 years ago.
But it is really enlightening how similar this chart is in comparison with the chart of total Crypto Market cap, at least "in shape":
When I started on HIVE, BITCOIN was priced around 1300 USD and the Total Market cap was 54 Billion USD... Around 7 times less than the current Total Market cap... HIVE was already more difficult to earn because abusers and the initiation of the Bid-BOT time was starting and really squeezing the reward pool at the maximum. So, there was very little chances for a newcomer to get visibility. Also, at that time, HIVE (called STEEM before JUSTIN SUN Era) was expensive in comparison, more than 1 USD per HIVE... and it reached more than 9 USD few months after.
However I bought HIVE, not at the top but in the middle, a few at 1.5 USD, another few at 2.5 USD and so... and I did regret of not having discovered HIVE just a few months before my start, when everything was cheaper and easier for a newcomer to build a good HIVE stake just by posting or interacting in the blockchain.
With the time I managed to get my invested money back and also to use part of my HIVE profits in other Crypto investments.
I also can keep a self-sustained growth together with a sustained profit that I enjoyed in a weekly manner...all of this as a result of having built my account before.
One of the things I learnt since I entered in the Crypto sphere, around mid 2016, is that history repeats, at least for the real use-case projects. BITCOIN, ETHEREUM, MONERO, STELLAR...and also HIVE remain and will remain and it is just a question of time for those projects to rise and get value and price again.
The advantage with HIVE is that today is easier to obtain, as it was on early 2017, either if you buy it or you get it by being active in this blockchain.
It happened before, during the first year of HIVE(STEEM) existence, people built their account very easily, the majority of them with avery tiny investment.
Those that keep being active are going to be the winners of the next Bull cycle.
Bull run cycle is at the door, mainstream as well, users will come, HIVE price will jump again and then...better if it catches you with your account fully built.
