I don't think that you can or should run a business as a decentralized entity. A blockchain is different to a business and if you want to fix things you need an owner or ownership group IMO. A group of people with a clear plan and vision that are willing to put in the time, effort and money to bring it to light.
Leofinance are a good example of this with a clear ownership structure that is supplemented by volunteers and feedback form the community. I'm really excited to see how their new website progresses in 2023 and the fact that they can generate 4K a month already form a small site shows the potential that there is for generating revenue and for growing a project.
My preference would eb to scrap sportstalk and start a new sports project from scratch in a totally new format and without the terrible tokenomics that have plagued the project since day 1. I think that it would be much easier than try to walk back all of the issues that exist with the community right now and while that might not suit a lot of the larger stakeholders if the token is going to zero anyway then it would be the same result in the long run.
Maybe it can be fixed but there would be a lot to do and i don't even know if you can do it with an owner, dao and legacy isssues.
There is a lot to talk about but i still feel that a proper web3 sports site could be a huge draw with the right format.
