I've thought all along that Hive can give opportunities to people who are lacking them. We are seeing that in Venezuela (who have other issues now) and Africa. The whales may be mostly from Europe and USA, but they should give others a chance.
"Users" can be a loaded work (as in drugs?), but what are alternatives? Citizens? Owners? They are all people and so are the whales. I hope we don't get taken over by bots, but then we have a say in that.
