Does whale sell pressure keep Hive down?

Sideways Hive

Hive has been moving sideways for months now, even the upwards movement of Bitcoin to 70000 USD hasn’t moved Hive in a substantial way.

There is a reason for that, the sell pressure is too high with Hive. And that sell pressure must come from somewhere.

My biggest guess is that the few whales that have the lion’s part of Hive in their hands and staked, are powering down consistently and are in that way feeding the sell pressure of Hive and keep the price of Hive down. This despite all the Hive Power Up Days that have been organised on this blockchain.
The whales are still outweighing the dolphins and smaller fish put together. And the way things are going this will stay like this for a few more years.

There is another way

If those whales would act a little smarter, the would dry up the sell pressure slowly by powering down less and less. This would create a natural growth of Hive’s price and would have as an effect that they would need to sell far less Hive for the same amount of USD. Hive grows bigger and bigger and the snowball effect would attract more users which would feed the buy pressure of Hive which would once again make Hive’s price rise!

Simple economics 101…

Sincerely,

The whales only care about themselves, it's every man/woman for themselves in crypto. I'm holding out hope we will see a nice bump in Hive soon. I know some guys that have been selling is because they legit need the money to survive, I don't blame them at all. At some point the sellers will start to pull back once they've made their profits and might even do intentional pumps just to sell at higher prices.

Eventually if we get enough Hive spread around to individuals who are non whales like ourselves, the whales will have less impact (at least I hope!)

I was also looking at its chart, its price is constantly falling but don't worry, after a few days it will definitely go above 50 cents.

If they are smart, they can drive up prices by powering down less, they will earn the same 🤷‍♂️
