You're aware that VP depletes differently now? The change made it so that every vote has the same value, until your VP is depleted (votes with an identical percentage, like 25% or 100% strength). It used to be that the value of each successive vote was slightly smaller ad infinitum, and you'd never really fun out of dust votes.
This is the change that is bedeviling me.
Yes, I know, it allows much easier access to 50% of one's mana, before you had to vote hundreds of votes to get down below 10%, now you can do it in less than 50 votes.
Greedy folks needed access to their last penny.
Kinda makes a lie of 'the minnows are dumping and that's an issue'.
IF it was such an issue, why did you give them access to that second half of their mana?
We have moles and they have been very effective at tanking the project, imo.
That's something that never occurred to me before. I'm sooooo naive,LOL.
I don't know how to explain it any other way.
Any rational person would agree with us, for the most part.
Only somebody intent on tanking us makes the choices that have been made, imo.
And, again, whether this is the factual truth, or not, IF we end up at the same place it won't matter.
But, my bet is on moles.
Witting, or potentially, unwitting.
I am not saying that is the only issue. I am also not saying that is correct for all of the history or all of the future. That is just how I feel right now. I could be wrong right now too.
I like you guys pushing back on me. Makes it easier for me to stay on the rails.
I think it is safe to assume if HIVE price goes up any significant amount some Whales will want to exit. I think a decent amount of users of all stake will try to exit at certain price points that is mostly based on what their entry point is.
I am assuming we have quite a few tranches of sellers before we get to any price point where the majority of stakeholders are happy.
