RE: Proposal: reduce Hive inflation by reducing curation rewards

in Hive Improvement4 years ago (edited)

The last thing this place needs is another fracturing of the community. Dont try to fix something that is working well. Look at Steem and see how this place can end up just like it literally over night. inflation can take care of itself if you have enough economic activity to absorb it. Ie new comers.

IMO, it's not working that well. But the proposal is intended as an experiment to see if things improve or not. It's a change that could easily be reverted if it doesn't work out.

I dont see whats wrong, the trending articles are all from an organic community. Whats not working is attracting new people and making them stay/invest. Investing in this place is a multi pronged approach. You need people to want to stay and invest time, energy and money. Thats why the games are the backbone of our community. Gaming and talking about gaming, sharing gaming experiences is a real use case value proposition for Hive. The main problem is that money is only flowing away from Hive and too the exchanges. Changing the inflation rate will have absolutely no effect on the perception of Hive in the eyes of investors in general but it will absolutely kill the appeal which is already struggling. Investment in this place comes in many ways, writing, reading, developing, engaging and of course money. But without the money i think you will have nothing sadly, because where will the demand for Hive come from? it will just all end up on exchanges being traded in speculation instead of what you need which is supply and demand. Create demand. I appreciate your way more in the know about the ins and outs of Hive and more concerned about 'is it working' as it should so i'm only stating it from how i see it. Bots are a problem yes but im sure there is another answer somewhere.

Very well said here. I share many of the same thoughts! Without what we've got for curation what's the incentive for new people to spend a penny on something that's dropped far off the crypto top 100 charts? I sure as hell wouldn't. I could speculate my money on something like ethereum where there is very consistent gains.

Una vez el dinero salga a los intercambios el retorno seria muy bajo, el problema principal sería como mantener a los nuevos usuarios y como tener mayor liquidez con el token hive
