I guess I am still looking for a somewhat concise "This tribe exists BECAUSE _______ and aims to fill these _______ objectives."
I appreciate that sentiment. I don't know that a single concise answer can be given.
I guess I would say
- This tribe exists BECAUSE a growing number of Hivers have expressed various levels of discontent with the status quo and we believe the changes we are instituting with Verify Your Brain and VYB will [1] provide a level of freshness in the air for those growing weary of the status quo and [2] might spur others to launch their own Layer 2 experiments -- to either attempt to solve other problems or to solve some of the same problems in different ways.
- and aims to fill these objectives:
- in all ways, complement the Proof of Brain tribe and the POB token,
- demonstrate an effective way to combat abuse without the need for downvotes,
- provide a mechanism wherein content creators who need to 'make a living' off their on-chain efforts can still earn tokens for that purpose (e.g. HIVE, HBD, POB) while also earning a token that they will be more likely to hodl (i.e. VYB) either for retirement or for a rainy day,
- create a world-class example of community-driven curation, an example that will hopefully eventually be emulated by other and future tribes,
- provide a token (i.e. VYB) that will be uniquely attractive to outside investors.
There are no doubt other objectives that don't come to mind at the moment, but that's a pretty good overview of where we're coming from.
The overview is a good one , lets keep fingers crossed to see how everything will turn out to be...i am positive towards this great project of yours..
