I know at the end of the day, nothing will really change. Why would it, those with the power wanna stay in power. Human nature and all. I just think it's always good when we get away from calling things decentralized when they aren't. I dunno what is there days anyways lol i cant keep up

Crypto has never really been decentralized. Money cannot be decentralized with anonymity and I understand the case for both.
I do think bitcoin is RELATIVELY decentralized compared to fiat because many opposing forces invest heavily in it, and it has enough prominence for people to care.
I also believe Hive could get there, but it hasn’t attracted the right investment, and most of the current whales are indifferent to that or don’t really see who the real problem is (bullies who disguised their own self interest with “rewards dispute”
My stance is always the same. I won’t start drama but I won’t hide my opinion from people who ask, and I won’t vote people who put self interest before the chain every time.
Hive still provides me with the friends and rewards to lift up my creative side which I haven’t gotten as much elsewhere so I will stay there as long as I can. (I hope Leo doesn’t go back to being finance focused, I’m keeping my investment either way because I trust the team to create a good product and listen to us, but if hive and Leo split neither will feel like home to me).
Decentralization can’t rely only on protocol alone. It needs a culture that believes in and supports the core values. Without this it will always die.
I’ve always seen crypto as just a tool that CAN potentially promote this but 99% of the energy is put into quick gains
Sorry for the rant. I’m obviously not disagreeing with anything you said. You just provoked me to say something I’ve been thinking
nah nah. rants appreciated! it’s a good convo.
i agree with you as well. this place (hive) has been my home. it’s a great place with great people.
while i think the social side of leo will remain unchanged, the focus i think for them will be the new blockchain with thor etc. that seems to be the passion now.
yeah, I think leodex being the focus is a good idea with the interest these other projects have in Leo. It will be smart for them to keep INLEO functioning well. No need for any crazy new features right away, but a few bug fixes and filling out existing features will give those other communities a place to hang out.
Khal should focus on the aspect of development he’s excited about foremost. That kind of passion shows and make the project stand out.
I think he needs some ravings fans to run the community engagement here. Things I have noticed took a dip, seems like some original Lions have left? But I think LEODEX is his passion, and there are some here that INLEO is theirs...
Need both to thrive me thinks!
I have too much going on to offer to do much more but I want to keep using my stake to encourage good stuff here at least. Might delegate some more Leo, and hopefully Leo reaches .5 Hive soon so my stake can spread out could do a lot
