People will abandon the chain due to a lower token price. We have seen that consistently over the years. If there is more to be made elsewhere, they will move. Unless there is something more than profit to be had by using the chain then they will stay or go depending on token price. People leave very fast due to not being seen in terms of voting and engagement as a lot of the larger stakeholders tend to not be very active on the chain itself but autovote the same circle or delegate out. Which is fine in itself but doesn't help the platforms.
It is far easier to retain existing users than to onboard new ones and yet we have seen a constant talent drain over the past two years only fueled by a toxic culture from a minority of users.
While some of our witnesses do great work behind the scenes and have HIVE running brilliantly, there always seems to be an under appreciation for user experience and non technical details. At the end of the day if we have 1000 apps serving 10 million users. None those users are going to care how reward distribution works or what is happening on the back end. They just want a good experience and an interesting place to pass the time.
Businesses want a functional model to build and attract users. Apps want simple and cheap platforms to get started. I appreciate that the back end of hive is very important to all of this but i would really rather see more time and effort put into the other side of things as well.
If you have a way to spread out distribution, cut out spam, cut out downvote attacks and still ensure that people are staying active then I would be very willing to listen but giving people their own reward pool will only encourage greed and selfishness.
Until then I would love to see more effort put into the actual user experience and trying to drive growth before the next bull run. Get us into the right position to take advantage of a new wave of interest in crypto.
