Now I am sorry, but that sounds like a bad joke. People getting paid by the DHF are more affected than people paying the DHF? .. That is nonsense and borderline disrespectul to people buying right now!

Andre is reasonably trying to share his opinion, and you respond with histrionics? His point is a simple truth, not a bad joke. The haircut hits anyone who is getting paid in HBD, but it doesn't hit anyone who is paid in Hive.

So when the haircut hits, the value of Hive that posters receive is not cut by the HBD haircut. It is holders of HBD and receivers of HBD-denominated payments (e.g. DHF recipients) that get hit by it. Why is pointing out a simple truth disrepectful to anyone? It is just a fact.

People buying hive during a haircut period would possibly even benefit from the haircut, because it's essentially a haircut on debt.

In fact, it is actually a form of the request you're making with your protocol change: a mechanism for lowering the payments to DHF recipients during a period where the price of Hive goes low (of course, it also impacts HBD holders as well).
