It's exact the approach I'm taking. The only thing I do different in regards to Hive, is I don't invest fiat in it.
Partly because there's still a small percentage in me telling me: what if it's all too good to be true. Partly because I am kind of hesitant how could I swap the Hive to fiat back and take care of the taxes etc.

Don't get me wrong, I definitely believe in Hive and am here for the long run. Just building it up from scratch, by engaging with others and different games.

Great post!
