Can I take it you're against The Wolfe's proposal that we turn Hive into a staking platform, and move away from a social platform.
Personally I think doing so would be a disastrous idea at this time, I get the feeling we're ripe for a massive spike in demand for crypt-social media with the normalising of the side-hustle.
Things are hotting up for Hive I can feel it!

i find that possible only and maybe when HMTs are up and running for a decent amount of time, and second layer is fully developed. doing it in the current situation would kill the social part of it, and in my humble opinion, killing the social part of hive in this moment would kill hive.
I agree, we're a long way off being able to abandon the social aspect!

I think this a very sound outlook.
Layer 2 needs a lot of building out before we see the shift taking place.

The debate about the base layer is an interesting one.
My views are this: HIVE should be distributed as rewards. This should not change. The reason is that HP applies to proposal and witness voting and reward distribution is how we spread it out.
As for the type of chain/ecosystem this becomes, I think we can see it will go in whatever direction people feel. There are a lot of projects pulling it every which way, something that is great.
There are social media tools such as those I mentioned in the post along with others. That doesnt go away. Personally, I feel that gaming is a bigger opportunity for the market but to social media aspect is not going to disappear.
No reason both cannot be pursued by different players. It ultimately will come down to what is built on Hive, the layer 2 DApps which will steer it.
And Dan is correct: there is not enough HIVE out there (or will there ever be) to scale to tens of millions of users. Thus more tokens will certainly be needed.
I hope that makes sense, I kinda just threw the ideas together.

So, his proposal is to remove the one thing that makes HIVE different from a lot of other projects?
That would be pretty stupid.
I certainly think so, I don't think there's much support for it.

it does sound disastrous to me, and yeah we need to focus on pulling in people from places like youtube who are being banned. Hives use case is all about decentralisation, freedom for all. People are going to library and other places we need to pull them in.
