Community efforts - my take on why HIVE is the best blockchain till date
Community efforts
HIVE was created as a community effort, around 2 months ago. This is unique for any blockchain, most if not all blockchains are created by central entity. That being said, HIVE is still pretty centralized in a sense, mostly the witness have a large percentage of the available HIVE.
Decentralization over time
HIVE may be the blockchain with most decentralization or the potential for most decentralization, because of its governance model and incentive structure. DPOS came with Steem, but there was the problem that Steemit Inc. had a huge amount of STEEM which the new owner (Justin Sun) wanted to control the whole DPOS model with.
HIVE was a hardfork of STEEM, created by the community and forking out Steemit Inc's stake and supporters of Steemit Inc's stake. Whether or not the hardfork managed to fork out the right people, is up for debate, atleast this was the intention and personally I like HIVE over any other blockchain.
Wait a minute, why there is LASSECASH if HIVE is the best?
LASSECASH is a layer over the HIVE blockchain, a tribe where there is a clear leader (me) and higher chance of getting noticed and rewarded for smaller bloggers. Its much cheaper to get a decent stake on LASSECASH then on HIVE, this is providing tribe members with the opportunity of getting noticed on a lower budget.
