The two are very different. No one got money for free on hive. On ICP they did. Morally I don’t agree with it and it’s very similar to hive anyway. I’m not aware of whales colluding to dominate governance. Most ppl with large stakes on hive generally don’t like each other.
Also I do t see how hive is being governed in such a way by stake holders who are removing ppls digital rights to post or build community or access the platform. So no I do t agree at all that ICP has the same set up as hive in the sense ur describing above
guess time will tell how this develops. i am not so sure it is such a clear cut case but i value your feedback
thanks
