In the context of our latest Liotes Mission, we asked the community how they evaluate the future of Hive. We specificity asked them to rate where Hive will be in one year from now.
How the Barometer is working
We asked the community to give a score and we would then take all the scores of the all the people taking part and evaluate the average which would define the Hive barometer.
How the community was asked to give their score
In order to have something that is comparable from one person to the next, people had to give us a number according to the following parameters:
- If one year from now, they believe that Hive would cease to exist, they would give 0 points
- If they had the feeling that Hive would be at the same level than today, they would give a score of 50.
- If in one year, they believe that Hive would have the same importance than BTC, they would give 100 points
The scores given are therefore very subjective. So each user gave us a score according to his own gut feeling and how he sees hive and the future of hive. 32 people took part in this poll and we had answers reaching from 35 to 100 points. The overall average score was 58 points.

Positive outlook
This means that the community as a whole sees hive in a positive light with a small increase in importance and value within the next year. It's nice to see that the big majority sees the future evolution of hive positively. That's a nice vote of confidence for the blockchain I believe.
A big thanks to all the people who have taken part in this poll. We will do a similar poll in the future so that we can compare how the mood of the community is evolving...
