I think the main issue is people are penny-picking like it was their own money on stake here. I think the funding on hive-dao should be spread to as many even remotely good project as possible. What comes to those whales is that they must be a bit on cross-fire as some people complain about spending too much whilest others tell that this instead of this should get funded.
If we could get the smt's by giving someone 300,000HBD I think it would just be worth it since that HBD on the dao is just a slice of the reward pool ment for developing.
