Yeah, a bunch of completely fair points. I agree that people come here for the promise of money and it gives people the wrong starting expectation.
I feel hive is growing in those ways but our marketing efforts probably haven't moved with that.
Thanks for the comment.
Also to be fair, hive has capabilities other chains lack.
For example, an Oracle service could be built here that would rival any other due to our free txs.
This is just one thing i thought of in ten seconds cuz i think i sound bearish sometimes when I'm really not.
Anyway, thanks for the post and for replying to me.
Heh, I think a healthy amount of critique of the blockchain is a good thing as we've certainly got ways to go. I didn't think it was particularly bearish either. I'd also be interested to see how the chain would handle masses of "free" custom_jsons, as we've never really had a good stress test.
Yeah ive wondered about that too. Im not really sure how to find out. I guess we could start by looking at splinterlands which i think is our largest producer of custom jsons and then try scale that up to the volume of requests for a successful Oracle service like chainlink. However i suspect that the data wouldn't be accurate and we would really just have to see it in action.
Yeah, nothing quite like testing the real thing... until it crashes and burns 🤣
Lol
Thats the cycle...
Code, crash, iterate.
