Bro, I have ~14 hours of work and a two hour commute ahead of me today to help a friend in need. I just don't have the capacity to manage my Hive tokens so closely. Holding HBD in savings is the best I can do while Hive persists. At least by that means I invest my stake in Hive and enable others of attain economic development by lending my stake to those that do have freer schedules.
The real problem Hive faces is parasitism by the ninja mining oligarchy that maintains a death grip on the witnesses, desperately suppressing growth to prevent outside stake from investing enough in Hive stake to dislodge the ticks from the rewards pool. Until unrestrained taxation of production ends, and Hive is governed by a civil society rather than a raw plutocracy, it's unlikely anything we do can help nominally. As you demonstrate both nominal interest and availability for the purpose, perhaps you can investigate how to resolve those issues such that Hive, or a fork, can become able to fulfill it's original promise to enable forthright social media content to be funded by the rewards pool mechanism from a free society of equals.
I hope someone can, and wish I could, but either I help my friend today or he loses his home and he will suffer dramatically reduced prosperity.
Thanks!
Hive.trading trades hbd/hive, it works on the internal market.
It takes a bit to get it set up, and a daily few minutes to keep the sides balanced, but other than that it runs in the background.
I thought that death grip would have loosened by now, but the lack of adoption seems to have held it back.
Nothing exceeds like excess. Absent a fairly deep investigation of how ROI is attained on Hive, investors have only a cursory glance at metrics to guide their interest, as do potential users. Both are well discouraged by the obfuscatory and punitive taxation mechanism of DV's.
