They've given up curation and proof of brain for max ROI, we already tried that 2 years ago and it'll make them equally as common as any other PoS or DPoS coin. No one is entitled to farming post rewards. I agree we could come up with a solution to let stakeholders stake without having to delegate to curation but that doesn't mean they should receive max ROI without being involved in proof of brain - that's what makes Hive unique.
