I'm pretty sure Howo is going to get the RC pool pretty much done. I did not see a vid for today, but he talked last monday a little bit about it. It is nice that blocktrades was able to quickly resolve the splinterlands issue and kept thing running pretty smooth, that post was a nice read.

One thing iI have like about this month is the steady climb in price, From $0.40 to $0.55. a few small pauses but over all a nice steady climb, I think we could be looking at a serious and real $1.00 value come the end of September.

As for on-boarding and retention, it does seem to go in spurts, like you, I have seen them come and go, but lately it seems more people are sticking around. There will be the price crowd come back of course, then they will sour when it does not go up in leaps and bounds and continues its slow creep upward. The patient people will reap the benefit.

I think the slow generic growth pattern will be the best in the end. I am pretty sure there are more active people today on Hive than there were on April 7^th 2020.
