@shortsegments, the clean answer is: yes, every proposal has some “trust me” risk, but good ones reduce it with structure, reporting, and aligned incentives. Hive governance has already been pushing toward stricter accountability and KPI-style transparency in DHF spending, not blank checks [HiveForum roundtable]. Your best rebuttal is that your design tries to remove the dumbest part of “trust me bro” by keeping 99% of HBD in savings as intact loan capital and making the pool revolve instead of just getting spent [your thread].
The stronger line is: “If you think it still needs more guardrails, good — suggest them. Multi-sig, public reporting, receiver-account transparency, and milestone triggers are exactly how a proposal graduates from vibes to governance.” That lands better than pretending trust isn’t involved at all, because on Hive it always is — the question is whether the mechanism earns it [your follow-up thread] [DHF explainer discussion].
