I think for SURGE they should just turn the yield back on. The whole buyback idea is great in theory, but I doubt they will be able to materially keep the price up. Buybacks do ensure that @leostrategy will get more of the future yield (if they ever turn it back on), but this will be at current holders expense.

I am a bit more ambivalent about the RWA's and not sure exactly how to think about approaching those at this time. If it were me personally I would just buy them all back at the original HIVE price and go back to the drawing board. I doubt they will do this though.

Turn the yield on SURGE back on, buyback RWA's, and focus on making ACE a better stablecoin with profit opportunities for them.

If their current plan works to get the price back up, I will admit I was wrong, butI am skeptical at this time.
