RE: TravelFeed 3.0, Independence And Cross-Posting

in TravelFeed4 years ago

Helped launch Hive chain in the first place. Wrote the 22.2 soft fork code that brought us here. Brought witnesses and stakeholders and developers together to collaborate on Hive and how to move forward with the idea.

Your greed is impressive. You get free tokens airdropped to you that you had no "rights" over in the first place and that just isn't good enough. You get free API nodes that you don't even have to run, and that just isn't good enough for you. You get a community that is already existing on the blockchain to market to, yet you fail miserably.

The @travelfeed account doesn't even have 2000 followers in total. I highly doubt the claim that "travelfeed is one of the largest dapps" ... it is buzzword marketing; hype marketing. And you guys just simply do not present an attractive investment opportunity to potential investors.

Sort:  

Everyone had the rights over the tokens as far as I'm concerned, isn't that how decentralization works? or chosing who to freeze isn't centralization anymore?

The blockchain is a tech. If using the tech benefits you and you can benefit the tech, great. If your entire shtick is to capture the existing Hive community and make them support you, you need to have something to sell.

Dapps benefit the tech by bringing new users, but we don't believe using Steem/Hive as a reward represents a sustainable way for user retention. SMTs would MAYBE fix that, but it's taking for ever to launch.

  • We never planned to capture the existing community, as its been shirinking greatly and we are niche oriented.
  • Our plan has always been to onboard external users, whose vast majority don't want to be involved in blockchain.

Right now, none of the blockchains are benefiting us from the tech perspective, even if we go back to running our own node. I have to add that it's gotten worse lately with all the childish behavior going on.

Let's see what the future reserves, I'm rooting for Hive and expect Hive SMTs to clear the way, if that occurs we'll be glad to issue a token here.
