I think you’ve raised a very important question about Hive: How many people would stay if there were no rewards? I agree that rewards can encourage creativity and fund projects, but the relationships within the community, the freedom to write, and the permanence of data on the blockchain are elements of great value that cannot be easily measured. I also appreciate how you discussed the responsibility associated with automatic voting and the importance of avoiding excessive “farming.” In reality, history, reputation, and everything that has been built over the long term are sometimes more important than daily rewards. This is a very interesting point that deserves consideration by the entire community
