After the first four months of 2025 the annualized HIVE inflation is at 7.4%. This is higher than the projected 5.5% for 2025
After reading this on one of @dalz Hive inflation data post I realized one thing I dont think many Hivieans even think about when they are posting and curating content on the blockchain.
It’s crucial to understand that the goal in an economy is to grow faster than the pace of inflation; otherwise, you actually shrink.
That means that if you dont grow your HP faster than the projected 7.4%, you are actually losing value year over year on your account.
This is why the large account with great percision have voting set up for them so they always exceed the inflation and also have some room for growth.
I hate that this is the reality, because it doesnt promote any manual curation or find small accounts to vote on per say, but this is the current system we have and we just need to play with what we have.
If we wanna grow our influence on the platform and maybe be able to matter when decision are made, this is what we must think about always. Growing, and growing together.
