I agree with you, the price is quite low, even considering the last year, Hive has dropped from 68 cents to roughly 6 cents, a hug drop. Longterm it has dropped from the 3-4 dollar range to 6 cent range. II completely understand why some content creators have left, because they don't think it's worth their time to publish content here.
I think that content creators definitely make a calculation of what are they paid, and is an activity worth their time.

That's the bad news, but the good news is that there are fewer scammers, and for the content creators who stay, there is the potential, but not guarantee, that new people will find your blog during that time and become followers.

I am hoping for the latter.
