On a token that is priced north of 1.6 hive!

Thin market, through, that's the good news.

I wasn't far off then when I compared their allocation to Satoshi mining Bitcoin in the early days.

Dude! LOL

PoB creator gets 10 percent beneficiary so he will have 2.1 mil PoB at the end. He will have more than satoshi in 4 or 5 years. Satoshi has 1 mill or so.

The beneficiary from what I was told directly from owner is 100% to fund proposals, none of it goes to the team.

Whether or not that is honored is really concerning given we have no idea who is behind PoB, it is an anonymous person with no post history or comment history we know of giving his word. From what I have seen he is just doing this all solo without a team(that may change or have changed recently not sure).

This all really concerns me because myself and @v4vapid are working on making our token. We have long established reputations and interactions with many people over our 4 years here and want to ensure we have a good project that gives people value and fills our target niche.

I really appreciate your posts and insights into communities because our team is learning a lot of stuff we didn't know about the issues with these tribes, the info coming out about how owners can mint all tokens in 1 second, or mute a person or choose to mute everyone(which would crash the market for a coin) is crazy. I had no idea this type of nonsense could happen on Hive Engine tokens. I understand having the mute function for disallowing spammers/scammers/bad stuff from being posted/commented, but I don't like how the creator can mute someone from upvoting/downvoting. That is easily solvable by having some semi-centralized stake in the beginning and also having good air drops that distribute to the community you want to attract and making those people whales/dolphins/minnows, and curating a lot of people who would bring good culture to the project, of which I am not seeing happen on PoB. We are taking our thing very seriously and are manually vetting over 8,000+ accounts and checking to see if they meet our guidelines on getting the air drop.

It looks to me that PoB creator is in way over his head and has not done years of manual curation or had a project like this before, or even really thought about tokenomics very much. For the IW we had rules and standards for curating and try not to curate one person for too much and all the time as to help spread it around better. PoB needs a lot of help with a lot of things, especially PR right now. Very bad optics all around and I am saddened to see this situation happening. I don't agree with the muting of azircon, PoB creator simply could just upvote whatever post azircon was downvoting if he wanted to neutralize it, azircon only had like 400 PoB or so from what I saw so it would be like a 2% upvote to counter

I show that the PoB owner has a balance of 82,186.12 POB Staked and 8,618.64629469 POB Unstaked. Over the course of 12 years bitcoin is at 18,738,312 BTC. If he is getting 10% + curation rewards, he will have a little over 850k to 900k PoB at the end of year 4, and a little over 1.9million or 2 million at end of year 12 if he keeps it all + curation rewards.
