With the TLM hype people litterally assaulted WAX and the implementation of CPU limits and captchas was probably necessary to fight abuse. I think what WAX is doing well is that they make onboarding pretty simple. Once hive has a similar onboarding process, it will encounter similar problems (a lot of users and bot abuse). The fact that people need to stake more CPU has an advantage that more wax has to be staked and this can have a positive effect on its price.

I'm not familiar with WAX but your comment got me interested because of the onboarding process. I really think Hive is lacking on that. I'll check it out to see how it looks like

In this respect, WAX is the most userfriendly crypto platform that I have encountered. There are already a lot of Hive projects (Risingstar, Splinterlands, CTPSB, Musicforlife,...) that are spreading out to wax because of it and because it shares a lot of interesting aspects with hive, like free transactions.

Yea the free transactions are a huge plus to the blockchain and for integration with other platforms.

Yea its an easy onboarding process. Just pick a way to create the account and you are good. Once logged in, you don't have to keep re-inputting but the captchas annoy me though.

Yes it does but the barrier to entry is now increased. I don't see it looking good for the new users and if the influx continues, it means we got to stake even more. Yesterday, I staked another 20 WAX to be safe (a day's earning for me). I think I am still below the CPU limits I was a few weeks ago though.
