What I do hope though is that it engages users and hopefully more new users who make their way to the platform.

my hope as well, but the real tests are yet to come. but the long term goals of improved engagement and content quality will be there regardless of token variances, that is as long as they are consistent and intentional.

this is an experiment in governance as well, as are most of Hive's tribal endeavors. as long as we don't ignore or misrepresent the results, even a failed experiment can be useful.
