Speculators can pump a price but they're really never beneficial to it's performance overall. All they do is add wild volatility. The only meaningful benefit is the possibility of them adding visibility to the underlying asset. If the speculation gets HIVE into the mainstream news, then, yes, I think that would be a positive. But just pumping the price over a dollar twice a year doesn't seem like much of a positive to me.
