RE: Will Hive stay a niche blockchain & cryptocurrency?

in Hive Improvement4 years ago

the thing i don't understand, you say that most of the people (maybe big accounts) autovote and snipe the curve for maximum profit, but you also say that when they will be given an option to do nothing and maximize the profit then they will share their profit by tipping? when was the last time you tipped someone on hive?

Sort:  

The difference between tipping with your own rewards pool is that it doesn't reach your own pocket before it goes somebody else, which for example reduces complexity around taxation.

Also, I want to have stakeholders on Hive who are holding HIVE for their own gains, purely for their own egoistic gains. The idea of "if you hodl HIVE and want to make some staking revenue, you have to reward others" is ridiculous.

And there WILL be stakeholders who will be like: "eh, I'm already rich, I can give some to others". Because that's a completely different mindset when stakeholders are prioritized instead of others coming here for some free money.

you are probably right about that (makes sense) as i did not even think about taxation, my country did not even think about individual and crypto, even business and crypto are pretty gray. i mean if i try to take 20.000eur from the bank, someone would ask me something most probably.

that still does not change the fact that now people spend real effort to maximize roi and even not voting on things just because they are to late, but if you give them the opportunity to do nothing, and by that maximize roi they will all of the sudden share that with others. some will, as some do it now, but what will that number be?

it feels weird for me the renouncing of social part of this. also it feels a bit blah when in a lot of talks social aspect falls to the last place of importance. maybe hive would be in top 20 without this system of distribution, and maybe there would be no hive.
