The word Value should be taken out of the Value Plan as there is nothing of value in it. Unfortunately a few large whales support this inflation scam and misappropriation of funds. I've tried talking to them, there's no point.

They have no idea how many people are not investing a cent in HIVE because of this waste. I sold most and abandoned all those sock accounts when it was around 0.0015 ETH because the chain refused to adopt a burn proposal of mine and now its 0.00006 ETH. Thats a 25x drop, it hasn't done well versus the USD either. I predicted this (well not this bad) and of course not enough people were smart enough to understand except a few million votes which was not enough. What do I know though, I just do this sort of stuff for a living and understand that inflation along with thoughtless spending destroy value.

Inflation needs to be tied to actual user growth and your numbers show a drop in users which means HIVE is just going to go down in value. Everytime I think about investing a few ETH in this chain, I look at the proposals and think absolutely not.

Enjoy those wasteful duplicate projects and especially that Rally car.
