RE: Hive: Under the Radar

in #hive • 5 years ago

No, for the moment, we're staying under the radar and that's good.

Do you believe that's good for decentralized stake distribution adoption? Or lack of attacks from governments/big tech companies?

I think slow growth away from VCs is better long term, what do you think is the advantage of remaining under the radar?

Sort:  

Oh, you mean what is the actual benefit of staying under the radar? Yeah, I didn't really go too deep into that. I did mention, building up defenses. For example, delayed influence, which was a very early feature. I'm not sure it was actually needed, but it's there.

Also, witness vote decay, which will only actually take place a year from now. But it's better late than never.

Both of these slightly undermine Hive Power, which I consider generally bad. But they undermine Hive Power very little, with a possible upside of strengthening the platform.

And now we get to play around with the HBD peg in a new dynamic. If they can pull that off before popularity, that'd be great. Having any semblance of stability without volume might lead to more core application development.
