"If enough hold they'll force the biggest whales to power down."
I see, rather, the opposite impetus. Whales extract ROI from their stake, and if enough stake Hive, their ROI potential will increase. What pushes them to destake in that scenario?
"Decentralization if it not be the medium to the point of this chain that what is?"
I don't understand this question.
Sorry.
If decentralization isn't the point of hive, then what is?
Profit. The ninjamine reveals that. However, it does claim to offer decentralization, and despite the deception and duplicity, that offer remains. We seek to bring that offer to fruition.
What pushes them to destake in that scenario?
Doh!
I don't know. Didn't think of that. Maybe not cause them to power down, because why would it matter if enough people stake enough for it to be fairly decentralized? Then again there's also the power in mass influence of many individuals focused on one mission. What would be that mission? What do we want to see on this platform?
I want to see fair play and equal opportunities and not shadow banning alternative media users and other regular folk just because they have dissenting opinions or even rob them of their donation for their content. Quality be on the eye of the beholder.
Maybe it's not about the quality or popularity race. Maybe it's about getting tax cuts and kickbacks by being early in the game.
I hear talk of a new chain from hive? What is that about? Will there be this ninja mine stake and shake issue too?
Mathematically, that can only happen if the OG sell them tokens.
I think most of the Hive community also wants that. I do. I contend with HW, witnesses, flaggots, and all and sundry at every opportunity that those are the purposes Hive is suited to serve, and by serving those purposes can attain to the value and prominence potential to it.
Because I do that I don't get permaflagged anymore, I guess.
I dunno about new chains. Keep me posted if you ferret something out.
