The 25% beneficiary rewards was an interesting experiment. I though it was quite a good idea. Extra curation rewards should have translated into more upvotes for content creators on DTube. It's a shame it didn't work out that way.
I think DTube could have promoted the idea a little better. For example you could have included the additional curation reward benefits at the bottom of DTube posts/video to improve visibility. Anyway, respect to you guys for trying.
It will be very interesting to see what happens when you guys get your token.
