The Daily Meme #692!
Have you been wondering why I haven't been making 'original content' lately?
Why am I burning rewards?
What caused me to take a break after 6+ years of near daily 'original' posts?
IF I could answer those questions I might be able to come back and let the words flow from my fingertips for a while longer.
I'm getting closer, this post shows that.
But, the futility of fighting a power that only keeps getting larger because you people keep selling your hive to them, cheap, is weighing heavily on my psyche.
Hive would be 10usd IF folks would stop selling it for less.
The best I have been able to do lately is add value by excerpting important historical works.
I don't know about you, but this has to be more valuable to the chain than endless travel and coffee cake posts.
My readers would certainly vote me rewards for them absent tptb.
Maybe I am biased.
I probably am.
It's not those author's fault if they are selected by the powers that be to have excessive rewards bestowed upon them from the whale largess.
It's your fault for selling those ptb the hive to do it.
Smdh.
Hive is not gonna break out while the greediest amongst us rule the reward pool, imo.
Good people will lose their keys and not look back.
Nobody wants to be part of a society where >20 people suck every drop of sweetness that they can get to the exclusion of the rest of us.
As you can see, these 5 accounts hold ~10% of all the hive that exists.
Lord knows how much they hold on the exchanges and in sockpuppets that we can't attribute to them directly.
Somebody is buying all the hive that you are dumping on the exchanges.
Not faulting them, they are the ones that will have to sell to meet growing demand, but they already hold enough power that well over 1 million accounts have bailed from the game.
The futility of overcoming this already determined distribution is a hill most won't climb.

That many people can't all be wrong in their assessments.
The distribution doesn't favor the spreading out of influence, it favors the already rich getting even richer.
The most powerful only growing in influence.
I'm telling you, people that can math will not buy in, nor even play the game, as long as the futility of prying crumbs from these people is sooo readily obvious.
You'd think 7+ years would be enough to show that too them, but greedy people gonna greed, I guess.
That >10 people would think they know enough to centrally plan an economy for the rest of the entire planet seems a bit presumptuous, to me.
History is littered with failed attempts at doing that.
The plebes have proven that they would rather do without than put up with that crap, time and time, again.
At some point the maliciousness of this 'pinko commie' behavior will become evident for the rest of us, if it hasn't already for most of us.
We can expect continued decreasing interest in putting energy into playing this game.
This state of the union will change when we can convince the newbs to power up and join the crab bucket.
More newbs powering up equals less for the top accounts.

Are you are tired of paying your masters to bomb children in far away places?
Perhaps it is time you pushed back on that.
A simple way that anybody can do that is to hoard your coins.
A dollar of change in your pocket is a dollar of value out of the banksters' pockets that force us to pay them so they can play in the amusement parks from hell and shop in the human grocery stores.
'Aint that fresh?'
Metal in your own possession will always have more intrinsic value than digits on a bankster's ledger.
What's so civil about war, anyway?
Why crapitalism is doomed to fail.
That is all, for now, you may resume your otherwise mundane day.
To contest the characterization of your day as mundane, make a post of your own explaining why your day is not mundane and ping me, eh?

Really, I would like to read your original posts lile this one. I think all we can do is staking more HP and not selling anyone. One must have a considerable HP to survive on this blockchain.
Sadly, I fear that both HIVE and Hive-Engine were destroyed when the witnesses raised the interest on HBD savings to 20%.
Currently we are paying about $112,000 in HBD interest each month. This translates well over 300,000 HIVE a month in interest payments.
Historical data shows that most HBD will be converted to HIVE at some point. Users tend to convert their HBD when the price is low.
I follow the Ausbit HBD monitor. Users converted over a million HBD to HIVE during each of the last three dips.
The conversions hit a fever pitch when HIVE is below $0.3. We've seen over ten million HIVE generated from the conversion during the dips which have occurred since Christmas.
The big money hoards its HBD when the price of HIVE is high. The big money dump their HBD when the price drops. This guarantees a widening of the income disparity on HIVE.
It is little wonder why HIVE sees its users numbers drop each month.
The price of HIVE is currently $0.353. We see that the HBD market cap is rising. The smart money on the platform thinks that $0.353 is a high price for HIVE.
I contend that we will see big players convert over a million HBD to HIVE then next time the price drops below $0.3
I don't think the market can absorb this.
Personally, I have lost all enthusiasm for promoting HIVE. I don't want to promote a platform that is being leveraged to produce a derivative that pays 20% interest to the wealthy.
As For Your Memes
I think it would be great if your started generating your memes with AI images. DALL-E costs about a dime per image. There are numerous groups offering Stable Diffusion. Apparently it is also possible to interface with some of these programs with Discord.
It might be fun to create a meme generating program that creates unique #memes that could be used to pull traffic from Twitter and Facebook to HIVE.

You're right about that, as I've stated.
I can appreciate your frustration, while I can't approximate it because I don't have the mental acuity to realize your insights. I am confident you do, since you have them.
I don't think they do. They tend to their wallets. They practice to keep Hive small enough to remain unattractive to bigger fish, which would eat them all up. During the bot wars they gained a few new members they couldn't overwhelm, and shed a few that couldn't maintain. I kinda miss Fyrstikken's rants.
I let folks hungry for money worry about it. I'm just here to speak freely and support those that do. The goodwill of good people is a far more valuable reward, particularly if they are smarter than I and can usefully criticize me, which I reckon you can should you take interest enough to.
You may understand the No Hiding theorem that avers the universe cannot lose information it has gained. While this was devised to reckon with black holes, I note that if it's relevant to them, it's relevant to us, too. Our consciousnesses aren't terminable. We have almost no understanding of consciousness at all, other than that ours are information, which is why they're permanent. The goodwill we have we will take with us after the expiration of our meatbags, and this is the only wealth I have interest in, because it's the only wealth I can keep.
Tokens can only be exchanged over the network we use, and we don't own the network, so we use it at the leave of them that do. I have recently come to understand that any programmable control that can be applied to CBDCs can also be applied to every crypto, by programming the network we must transact with them on. Hive and BTC are just as much CBDCs as Putin's new digital Ruble.
Speak freely as you have information of value to share with good people, and let scumbags lament their malice at their leisure in the hereafter. It is your goodwill that rewards you, and will continue to, not your tokens, coins, or promises to pay printed on paper. What is merely cast in stone will rub off and crumble away. It is your good nature that will exist in perpetuity.
Thanks!
Well, I don't really know much but I can see some people powering down. Maybe they do not have hope in Hive. Who knows? They are selling Hive in cheap prices which may not be very nice...
I don't have so much Hive power but I'm keeping it for future use especially when the price goes up

I thought burning Hive helps hive, well at least on Steemit that's what was often said. If so why help them?
The thought had entered my head a few days ago when GP put out that scam alert that maybe those were abandon accounts and somehow it was figured out a way to drain them. Complaining about this play is blowing wind, one reason I say decentralization would actually be worse than centralization. A bunch of hoodlums running wild on everyone. Anyway GP said hurry and change over your recovery account to Hive if you still have steemit as a recovery account. Not that what I have is a big deal but still why let robber barons have it so I go to the link that he said was easy to understand, done in three languages and should get you through the process. Nope. Doesn't work. Came up saying my active key wasn't valid or something of that nature. Thing was it never asked for the active key. Now I guess I'd have to go on Discord which I am not downloading that thing again. The reason I thought about a proposed scam also being a scam is they probably have a way that once accounts have been dumped for years they can use the recovery process to get all those accounts that have hive just sitting there in small amounts add up to a bigger amount because it certainly didn't work out as described. Up late with grand kids, probably not making any sense and should go to bed....lol. Yeah you are burning the midnight oil on this one.
You don't have to use discord, anymore.
Sting is replacing it.
It does everything discord does, except it is encrypted and no big bro.

Burning hive benefits ALL holders equally.
It's not the best solution, but it is better than giving it to folks that already have too much.
Hive is a crab bucket, what I get, you can't have.
IF I don't take it, it defaults to those with the most.
IF you don't take it, it defaults to the those with the most.
Ergo, better to burn it than to not burn it.
'They' can change the code to do whatever they want, the question is will people put up with it or dump.
So far, they haven't gotten the math right for new users to stick, and after 7 years that is starting to look undeniably intentional.
'It's a feature, not a bug.'
I guess I didn't understand what you are saying there. Take what?...
So the funny clown thing is gone...how do you use the new system?
Your share of the inflation.
Funny clown thing?
....and the fact they let you get away with it is highly suspect in itself, you must have a hefty sum of hive yourself for them not to come down hard like they usually do.
I'm not sure why, but I have been fortunate in that regard for a very long time.
I only have what I have earned and the little I have traded other coins for.
Most of those I've seen wiped out were totally emotional about the situation.
They cried like little bitches.
I've tried to avoid that tactic as it is ineffective, and quite amusing to the control freaks.
I'm not in the secret slack, but neither is it 100% secret.
