Where are those people, mate? All of the content I've seen has close to 0 interactions, literal newcomers get more traction than whatever you lot have been rewarding over the years. I'm not even going to mention how close to none of you have any stake left so not only didn't you bring in any people that chose to stay but they all fucked off as well with the value they most of the time got unfairly seeing as close to no one cared about their content.
Hive is an investment, the risk to reward ratio is in speculation and many who aren't morons see that and don't think short term and have done well for themselves. If literal immutability of text isn't worth their time since that's the main reason they cry over getting banned in random places then I doubt showering them with rewards no matter what value they may actually bring is going to do Hive any good and it shows it hasn't after years of "uninterrupted(lack of downvotes)" unfair rewarding.
