Do you know more about the legal status of HBD? How I see, it is a big issue for Hive. It holds back Hive being legally accepted by exchanges, wallets.

It is not even in the Hive whitepaper (if the hive.io wp is the actual, real one), so it looks like similar to the Luna 'stablecoin'.

Why Hive need it so much? Do you know what is the legal status of HBD? If it needs for bringing money, why it is hidden from potential investors, not listed anywhere?

If it is legally ok, why the exchanges didn't add it in winter time, when they've started the Hive futures trading and Hive earnings in their site?

Is there a way to measure the HBD effect on HIVE pressured price?

thx
