The market is always right, without exception.
No, no, no. All kinds of market manipulations cause the market to be utterly deceptive and can even utterly destroy them. Look at fiat. The dollar was sound once, and now it's a joke. The market for dollars is being destroyed, and the world will pay a heavy price for that.
Otherwise, I just don't have the interest you do in currencies. I didn't come to Hive for money. I came to dodge censorship, and I'm still here because I can still dodge censorship here. I'm allowed to, for some reason, and I don't actually know - or spend much time trying to find out - why, but I'm going to take this opportunity to speak forthrightly as I have it.
We are in agreement about the harms of HW, however. I pay that much attention to currencies, at least. Some few of those demands you listed make sense, but the majority of them do not, and are excuses to crush Hive down to an unpalatable investment Big Fi won't swallow. Big Fi hasn't spent the time to learn that Hive could be made into whatever they want it to, and that's fine with me, and with the oligarchy, but most of the folks that came here for tokens disagree and would happily sell out for a moonshot.
I would be unhappy if that happened, because it would inevitably be accompanied by censorship and cancel culture, which would eliminate freeze peach here.
