Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Have a look around. Notice there are several hundred and at some point thousands earning. Take a look at your choices. Take a look at theirs. Many are in the same boat as you, except they're making independent and productive choices for themselves. Decentralization means: no one single point of failure. Since PH the organization is centralized, their one poor decision is that single point of failure. Growing a community is much like growing an orchard. The posts are fertilizer. PH wants to fertilize one tree, and let the rest die. But if PH was decentralized, then all accounts get to grow, and their votes are like fruit that feed the other members. 1000000 HP in one account yields the same amount of fruit as 100 accounts with 10000 HP. But if one tree dies, there are still 99 more. In one comment you're talking about being entrepreneurs. The decision to depend solely on 1 account or 1 leader is what got everyone in this mess. The people in the mess are free to remove themselves from the mess. Holding your earnings and allowing your account to grow is not selfish when those votes can then be used to support the community. PH members should hold the PH community money, not PH the organization. Look at my case. If one decides to no longer support my work, I'll be okay, and maybe at some point someone else will want to support my work. It's all organic. No strings attached. And if I wanted to support a legitimate charity, I have money in my wallet to do so. You should be seeing red flags when an organization calls itself a charity, but the one providing majority support to the beneficiary in the form of votes is also the beneficiary. A real charity does not pay itself. That could be considered a scam, or shady. So because of that, it gets downvoted. The reward pool is a shared resource. All Hive members are under no obligation to support this supposed charity. The money is not yours until its in the wallet. That rule is the same for everyone. Please pardon this wall of text. Was in a rush.
