At least their Proposal was partially funded after some compromises. Even to this date, the largest account creator on HIVE is @steemmonsters account. Other blockchains would be championing something like that. Instead we are stuck with a great community and some toxic Whales. It would be great if there were some large investors who would buy a large stake and change the status quo.
