there are different interest groups within Hive (those with power, the whales), and they do not share the same views on where Hive should go in the future. Each pulls in its direction.
And that is why we probably don't go to where we should - and even it does not bother them at all because they are rich. Decentralization is fine but as soon as money involved, centralized govt will always control by taxing us as much as possible - it's their profit without any effort but we live under their jurisdiction.
So the best we can do is what we want to do :) irrespective of where hive goes - reflect your feelings on the chain as memoir. And don't forget to publish to youtube at the same time, consistency is the key at both the places.
Congratulations for completing nine years....
Thank you. You may be right, but the question is, where should we go? I don't have the answer. I'm not a developer, programmer, or visionary. Those who are, are already active. We're just followers :)
Decentralization is like a kind of democracy, a little to the right, a little to the left, never straight ahead.
