some dapps are just poor.
In any case, what you said above, could (and probably are) sending the message out there that HIVE (as a blockchain) is poor and bad, while that isn't the case at all... "poor dapps" are, but not a whole blockchain...
I had a few IRL conversations on this topic and I noticed exactly that pattern... Even from Hivians that were saying exactly that... Because of broken H-E tribes (bad tokenomics, minting tokens like crazy, etc.), games that sucked all HIVE from people and left them with worthless tokens, the image of HIVE is ugly... Those dapps will disappear and others will appear, but the HIVE stays, and we have to clean and re-build the HIVE brand...
Again, back to @lordbutterfly's comment... Things may look bad, but that doesn't mean that it's impossible to improve them... Even knowing "dirty things" doesn't mean that we should quit... It's quite the opposite for me...
No no! Blockchain code is awesome! So far 100% proof against any problems, during 6 years or so, it's impressive!
Hahahahaah... I feel some irony there... lol... It's not perfect, but you can't blame blockchain for poor dapps built on top of it...
No irony! Believe me :) Blockchain code is good, can, must go further, but is good.
