Thanks for the comment @acidyo . As always you hit the nail on the head. Why post and earn $5 when you get $5000. If anything they should be posting more and then sharing that post on X to increase their exposure for better marketing. The comment from one of the disgruntled street work out crew was interesting. I queried last month why the cost of merch was crazy. Turns out if you post in their community you get different kits/ uniforms Gold level , silver level etc. And we are paying for it.

I wanna point out that I don't want my comment to lead into a witchhunt of who I meant and that the reason they stopped posting can be a number of other reasons. I just want to bring awareness that it's important to split up the payments and place transparent notes on each.
Not a 7k hbd payment saying vague things like "conference, merch, trip", but being transparent about what was spent on what exactly.
It is weird to me that VP says people aren't being paid for their time, assuming these people are just doing it for the love of hive/their own stake, but then having a big lack of transparency on things others could verify. I'd rather we have more transparency and pay people for their time than wonder if they're making up for the latter by cheating the program which just causes drama and distrust in the whole project + hive itself since it's one of the biggest and only DHF funding for things like this.
And I honestly think we need more programs like this, some improved versions that tackle the whole marketing in different ways that can bring more results or at least proof of effort and effectiveness than VP and leo proposals have.
