RE: Why powering up hive is sooo important.

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

Yeah I mean I can definitely get on board with a lot of what you're saying here.

Are they free to piss it all away on sprinkles for their lattes?

But then I see stuff like this and you're really trivializing the fact that a lot of this money is being ported into the developing world to pay for simple necessities. The flip side of that argument is knowing that most people are really bad managers of their own finances, so it's a very difficult conversation to have; full of weird nuances and caveats.

I haven't looked to see how much is going to people that actually need it, but I've traveled, those people are eating, or they wouldn't be able to access the web.
I don't bemoan the people that actually do need it, but I would guess that whatever they spent it on will be less valuable than hive governance tokens once adoption occurs.
Ergo, spending it today costs them a potentially wealthy tomorrow.

Presuming those that want to see hive fail don't succeed at turning us into a betamax tech.

I would make the argument that Hive is working very sub-optimally if users can't come here and put in some work and get paid for that work. The value of the work they've done needs to be slightly more than they get paid in order for the network to profit from the exchange. Once again: Easier said than done of course.

Right, and that is withing the coded rules.
50% comes as liquid.

My rant is against those that power down to sell.
Even there I'd grant leeway.
But, we are being abused and nobody is paying attention.
Voting rewards to those that dump them hurts us all.
