Please. Do try to run a witness when HIVE is under 0.01. It's worth noting that alts generally have a 90%+ correction after the bull market. Better prepare yourself. $0.10 was only a few steps away from witnesses unable to turn a profit running servers and hardwares.

Better find your Citizen Kanes who are willing to lose money each year FOR YOU.

So what was the entirety of the Bitcoin Network in the first few years? Other coins and projects also had a similar start. I take it that you don't know that much about crypto history in general since you are saying everyone will turn off their witnesses. Some people did, most didn't. And they were losing money.

The particular problem IS SPECULATION ON PRICE and NOT that the price of Hive is too low, the problem is that there ISN'T ENOUGH demand for fundamentals of the project, in Hive's instance it doesn't have enough people using the product is what causes Hive to be vulnerable to speculation. If Hive had a healthy user base of hundreds of thousands instead 10k to 14k daily transactors, then speculation would never be an issue because fundamentals would keep the price high enough or pretty high so it is never unprofitable to run a witness.

ALSO, there are many hundreds of witnesses running a witness right now that are losing money from it, only the top 50 or 60 actually make profit or break even, the other 1,000+ below them that all lose money, so again, your assertion is false by the provable facts that exist.

And what's the user base ratio compared to the general public? See? Most DO NOT care. Most people I've talked to in this polarized world we live in do not care about someone else's free speech. They care about their speech being the dominant one.

Well, a lot of the content that we upvote does land on Trending daily and multiple times. We upvote posts in #politics #news #informationwar #deepdives #truth #conspiracy and dozens of others. The general public is seeing it. Our curation trail has over 120 people in it who willingly follow our upvote trail.

As I mentioned above, before the founder of reddit died reddit was full of free speech activists and nobody wanted anything censored. It wasn't until corporate greed was established and the company paid off. Reddit/twitter is now left wing controlled and censors content that is mainly right wing, but also does censor content that is far left wing, left wing, center, moderate, right, far right, etc.

Don't pretend your unicorns are the masses.

For whatever reason my post is bothering you, I don't know why, maybe you know but I don't.
