well if it hits .25-.30 i'd probably buy. Although i'm still not convinced it's worth buying into these networks unless you are a business trying to build a platform or something.

As long as bad actors can siphon money out at a maximum selfish rate through voting, is it really possible to make more than that in an altruistic way? I guess it doesn't need to altruistic but just in a way that brings more value to the platform?

I think HIVE platforms need to abandon sorting by vote. Leave voting to be a reward system and tipping system, but until rewards start going to content that actually drives content to the platform, i don't see how Hive will continue to grow.
