I want Justine to get DAO Funds, she knows every inch of the Steem (now Hive) blockchain and she works very hard. But the way she is proposing it, I do not like; same way she didn't like my initial proposal.

The same thing happened to me at Steemit actually towards the end when Elizabeth took over and de-prioritized business development.

But I also left at the same time because I understood this so it's all water under the bridge now.

The point is getting Hive DAO Funds is more about politics than merit and I was pushed out politically.

But I realized that I wasn't the right guy for the job because I didn't have many individual relationships with members of the Hive Slack.

Here you can see a chart with all my initial notes.

I made a proposal but Justine asked me to take it down so I did. She wanted it to be a team proposal but she didn't want me on the team.

If she asked for $30k or $40k broken out over one (1) years for a part-time or even more if she wanted to go full-time, I would be fine with this. But $30k for services rendered, no, because lot's of people,

And I wasn't using the EOS legal opinion as a matter of fact. That doesn't make much sense.

If you read nothing else that I write here read this: She had opinions about my proposal, so I have opinions about her proposal. $30k for services rendered is off. There is no 'magic' with exchanges and

ProBit was 100% me but at the same time it wasn't me at all. The credit goes only to the Hive itself. I had met the CEO of ProBit in Seoul in November and knew the listing manager from prior business.

DM to @netuoso I'm happy to try and clear the air but I must tell my side of the story.

As someone who worked for Ned directly to get Steem listed on all the top exchanges, I figured it would only make sense for me to help with Hive so as a community volunteer I reached out to eight (8) exchanges

"As far as Bittrex I stated clearly who did the initial work on that and it wasn’t you or I." I wanted to be on the team but you didn't want me on the team so I left. End of story.

"Seems perhaps you were working on some other deal and why you were pushing $150k to come out of the DHF." Exchanges don't work like this, they talk to hundreds of projects, I was not pushing

"The head of listing at huobi wasn’t even added to the conversations until after you were removed from the chat." Exactly, I was ahead of you guys and had landed a call to pitch Hive to Huobi

For the work that I did, it's not worth any money, it was proof-of-capability from which a part-time sales job could have been justified.
