Never once have I said give away free.
The only thing I have said that needs to be supplied free from the chain is that the chain builds what is needed for the future.
I am sure you do not have the time for my lectures ego.
Edit
I am of thinking just to spite all of those my paranoia says refused to hear me for invalid reasons.
To get myself a 30 HP stake and have it there just to up the Proposal median. I am thinking if more did so. Then the requirement of agreement from more would be needed. The smaller accounts grow their holding value by proxy.
But then that could just be a hurt pride and never happen.
Or it might and the ego will have no need to boast about it.
Neither did I.
I'm agreeing with you that too much emphasis on rewards is a bad thing and that being able to transact freely and cheaply are big reasons to stick around and keep using the protocol.
Apologies. My bad. Not used to agreement.
My summary.
It's possible.
Conbat (Tpo there Combat, But Con bat the banks seems right too.) the current banking system Through mortgage.
This happens with initial funding from the chain. Not an owned by me account. Like a company account if a company started here.
The profits from the company provide demand for Hive tokens while the finance to produce a higher value monthly return is established. (progressive).
Through the process onboard and facilitation of use can be garnished. Encouraging friends to use the chain and they will buy their rewards. Word of mouth friends helping friends.
Location determines investment values. No matter where the same thing applies.
Process time to set up 5 years from start to providing a mortgage or loan for property purchase.
The process to remove control from the central system has begun them and the enrichment of the Hive tokens gains value against a decreasing FIAT.
This phrase is like a proverb or aphorism emphasizing opportunity costs and trade-offs.
It's often used in economics and popular culture to express the idea that everything has a cost.
If people want to make money in the protocol, they can do so, but they have to have skin in the game.
Skin in the game is a figure of speech by the way.
There is not many who want a free lunch.
For the vast majority of people. They would prefer to have done something for the gain.
The truth is. The free lunch does not do the soul any good. That is the reason most do not want the handout.
Take for Hive. Are we going to teach all users how to code?
Opinion is not counted in discussion unless you are a coder.
Having skin in the game does not mean you have a say. Especially on Hive. Your skin colour is determined by the HP. Low HP gets a disregard.
Nothing about a free lunch ever in anything I have said in 6 years.
I only blogged here to share a concept that I have proved can work twice. No one has interest in actually doing what the hype around BTC said BTC could do at the start. Remove central financial control.
All crypto currency token is coming under the control of the same central financial system.
In doing nothing to make that change. We only send the children of our children to servitude.
