RE: We are beggining to be wasteful with the HIVE fund! STOP NOW

in #hive4 years ago (edited)

Do you actually think these big ass billion dollar companies give two shits about randoms dragging them on Twitter?

Yes. That is precisely what they care about. In a unregulated industry the word of mouth is king. Twitter hype is what moves token prices and can hurt business. Thats why CZ and everyone else was quick to back down.
What we did on twitter and social media is exactly why any of this happened. Its why the biggest names in crypto talked about us, why media picked it up.
Had it not been for the community no one would care to even mention it.

The outrage was "proof of community". Because we cared, that meant it was important to report on.

That they're stupid?

If they vote to give Justine 30 thousand dollars then yes, i think theyre stupid.

dependable people that can actually get meaningful work done that produces results.

Yes, agreed. I vote she gets 200k USD instead.

Reasonable points here by you and others, and while I'm sure what I said is not what people would want to hear about the effectiveness of Twitter noise, it's what I believe.

I'm not saying it had no impact/effect on the final outcome, but I do think the greatest contributing factors happened behind the scenes.

Since everyone here is making a judgment based on information without hard objective evidence we all have to use our best judgment as individuals. That's DPOS doing DPOS.

It's fairly obvious to me that he Twitter campaign was crucial but that it took people to negotiate with them and persuade them to list us without the usual fees and despite whatever bullshit stood in the way.


maybe he was lying, or maybe he was part of the team, i don't know, don't have the inside information.
