I can't recall ever promoting any proposal on Hive... ever.
First time for everything I guess.
Hell, look at my account. I could technically pay for it myself out of pocket. Of course, I'd never do that, because I have nothing to gain by creating such a documentary. That's exactly why the decentralized Hive fund exists in the first place: so we can throw money at projects that benefit the entire ecosystem, but not necessarily the people we hire to create the thing. Hive needs to show more strength in this arena.
We already had big players like Vitalik commenting on how big of a deal this hostile takeover and subsequent fork of the chain was. There are a lot of maximalists in crypto. There are a lot of tribalists. We will not be taken seriously until we step up to the plate and show the world what we got.
Truly, 70k HBD out of the dev fund is not a big risk. What is the worst that can happen? It doesn't get made? Plenty of the stuff the Hive fund pays for doesn't get made or live up to expectations. That's the beauty of the Hive fund; it's like a venture capital fund. 10% of the projects can provide 99% of the value. We can fail 90% of the time and still come out of it smelling like roses.
Joking aside, the return proposal currently stands at 29,064,310 HP
The documentary proposal sits at 28,956,366 HP.
This will not be a Hive "shill" piece with the sole goal of making the Hive community feel good.
This will not be a revenge piece.
We will not be portraying Binance and Huobi as being complicit to the Steem takeover.
It's just too good of an opportunity to pass up. All I gotta do is click a button and a documentary gets made for me? How crazy is that? If this thing actually gets produced there is no way it's worth less than the cost to make it. Guaranteed.
