Then again you speak of rewards, I'm not a very consistent writer here and I am definitely not complaining about rewards, I did point out that I earn fairly well based on the efforts I put in, did you miss that part in the post?

Clearly, I missed that part, my apologies.

No, I'm saying that they should actually be the ones seeking out ways to task the community to build external value structures.
They hold the most tokens, so that would benefit them the most but why aren't there? It makes no sense to me.

I would say this is constantly happening, although not at the speed many would expect. Said that note that whales aren't necessarily 'ambassadors' of the chain, they could be just a random investor who simply likes Hive.

Exactly, notice how the narratives here most of the time speaks bad of almost every system out there? Like traditional social media and their monetization and shit?

To be fair I guess the narrative is against people who say 'we need decentralized social media' and they choose to keep ignoring Hive. By itself, traditional media isn't bad. It's a bit more about what people actually expect from it.

How many of the whales got rich from being on Hive? That's right, many did whatever else in the real world and accumulated their wealth. So despite everyone saying those systems are shit and broken, that's where the money actually is, just too centralized then here we are in an ecosystem we could make things more flexible yet we are not applying any of the working solutions.

To be fair not many. But keep in mind that what is being worked on there is still in its foundational phase. I would suggest you think about Hive more like a 'distribution system' rather than a 'Crypto startup that has to succeed'. Solutions are being worked on, but once again, patience is required. Building takes time.

Then again you say I didn't show respect for what people have been building for years, did you miss my appreciation to those actually putting in the work?

Well, you said literally ''Because the currency of the ecosystem has zero economically sound infrastructure, there's nothing feeding value into it, nothing.''. Sounds harsh, at least.

When you refer to 'those putting in the work'' who you're referring to then? regular users? Devs? Because it sounds like a nothing sandwich. Empty appreciation words if you say in the same post that something on what they worked on has zero sense.

Not to mention you said that 'youtube needs hard work while hive needs asslicking', yeah sure, thanks for your appreciation then, you're welcome.

I do not understand why you ending this by saying I should be more careful, this is my opinion and observations expressed, isn't that a right or something around here?

Ofc, you have all the right to express your opinion and voice your view regarding anything.

What I meant was to 'go easy' because I think you raised some more than valid points but (I think) you then lost your way by expressing yourself in a careless way in which you put the focus of the problem on the people you want to appeal to. This way you will only get your target to ignore you.

Is always good to raise discussion where needed. But respect for both parties is also needed.

Have a good Sunday.
