RE: What Makes Hive Different

in Threespeak2 years ago

The point of hive is exchanges, in practice, cannot successful powerup Hive and use it to influence governance. First line of defense is the 3 month powerdown, this highly discourages powering up users funds because then they could not complete withdrawals or market make. Second line of defense is the 1 month delay in voting. If an exchange powererd up users funds the community would see it from a mile away and have more than adequate time to react accordingly.

Sort:  

I agree that these measures will keep the exchanges from attacking us again.
'The hive is hot, don't touch it.'

My worry is that enough of the 1/3 of hive held liquid on the exchanges is enough to influence governance were it to slowly trickle back into a bot net.
If it hasn't already.

How do we know that the many anonymous accounts are not just waiting for the right time to launch an attack that tanks us in the markets?
Thereby kneecapping us, again, potentially fatally.

Clearly, we are on the radar of folks that will make long term plans to insure hive doesn't rock the boat any more than they are willing to tolerate.
The banksters won't let us free ourselves from their centuries old dominance without making us fight for it.

You do know adept was dead not long after publishing that post?
And, not from the clotshot.
