My campaign on Hive yesterday showed me this. The people are ready, but the leadership is not. If they don't believe it, who has time to convince them?
America was constructed in a manner that allowed free markets to operate efficiently. The way your chain is constructed allows for decentralization to operate efficiently. Even if it means a centralized entity overseer before they fade into the background.
Hive leadership uses blockchain dogma to bullshit their constituents. Such as leaderless, censorship resistance, decentralization, and immutability. Yet they will have to answer regulators for trustless, and not your keys, not your coins. They would really be delusional to consider this a blindside.
Maybe they were operating in good faith, but it was sub-standard. Another issue is their ability to haggle and attempt to tread you continuously. They are the ones at risk of getting stepped over. And it will be a matter of principle.
It is bullshit of them to expect everybody else to practice bitchassness nonsense with them for the sake of practicing bitchassness nonsense. Cryptocurrency projects have a limited amount of time to be compatible with globalization.
Steem already has to deal with the magnificently dreadful Korean community. But also those that packed up their bags and left? Get the fuck out of town! Seriously, worry about explaining the hard forks to the SEC.
These indulgence by Hive is a luxury the broader Tron community knows they don't have.
If I could go back I wouldn't vote for two sockpuppets... I'd vote for all 20!
