You have put together some compelling arguments in favor of those choosing to interact on the Hive blockchain, @achim03. I find that to be common.
What is less common? Even actively resisted?
Compelling arguments challenging what might be charitably referred to as continuous improvement. Those conversations cannot even get properly started, without freedom to have an honest discussion about the challenges faced by those interacting on the Hive blockchain.
Whatever is deemed best to facilitate a full range of discussion about both the merits and challenges will always have my support. As a newbie, I do not mind saying most of what I read along these lines has the far too common feel of what I have experienced over time in the broader crypto world.
Which is what?
Anything which promotes buying more is encouraged. Which takes form in ways which I will not go into depth here in this comment, but will simply state too often it does not seem to be honestly examined. Almost anything goes. And is excused.
Anything which MIGHT promote selling is discouraged. Again, which takes form in ways which I will not get into here. Very little, if any, is tolerated.
In whatever way you, as a Witness, work to facilitate a healthy balance of both will always have my support. As interacting on the Hive blockchain will then much more closely start to resemble what we experience in the real world.
I think that you are not wrong to point out that the business side on hive is not very developped. I was part of the CTP community that was very dynamic a couple of years back and the main idea was to build businesses on hive. When you speak about businesses, then selling becomes an important part of it. If we had a bit more business attitude here on hive, it would probably be better for the blockchain in general. Businesses bring customers, ideas, users and new ways of using the blockchain that should be encouraged.
Yes, agreed, @achim03. What that mindset also brings is a very deliberate thought process which some refer to as some version of being a "devil's advocate."
The point of these exercises is very simple. If you are trying to convince someone to invest in whatever your great idea is, you better be prepared to defend it against any objections. Even any potential objections!
If you cannot do that? Why not? What are you trying to hide?
