Yup, we need to wall off Hive and encourage further community development on the second layer. Who really wants to see the whales on a decentralized crypto currency acting like bullies and sharing their pro centralized opinions by downvoting content that is anti government and pushing pro centralized propaganda medical procedures, seemingly to pander/virtue signal to the authoritarians we were supposed to be escaping from with steem/hive.
Either these whales are trying make Hive into a meme blockchain, ironically enough threespeak will, or they are are just trying to preserve their wealth. The later might be more true seeing as we depended on one person to list us on Binannce and she disappeared. Why are we as a community ok with being a walled garden traded primarily in Korea and easily manipulated in price? Why was steemcleaners created again? How was it profitable and isn't there another similar entity on Hive which might be the same people profiting off account destruction?
I decided to stop posting and just curate. The pro authoritarian/centralization upvotes and downvotes by the large whales here is getting old and so is Upbit. Their virtue signaling groupies are just as bad but they follow along mindlessly so maybe worse.
None of it is what it appears is it?
Yeah, its just bad. Having a 1st layer wallet polluted with social media content that overshadows and limits the actual real use case for the currency, it is just tacky. I spent years watching these whales flag anti centralized content, anti government content and just being general bullies towards activists and now Chinese content too. People left and are still leaving. Twitter with the BTC tips has made alt social media crypto irrelevant and solved the rewards pool problem.
Oh guess what? Hive is partnering with obscure blockchains that wont get it listed past upbit. The circle jerks here on Hive and the levels to them is absolutely insane how clear and obvious they are. Who wants to invest into a currency that is primarily traded only in Korea, on an exchange that is not even close to being approved for use in western countries.
How is it Steemit INC was based in Texas and now both Steem and Hive is based in Korea on UPBIT??? We want to act like elitists and that Hive is special but apparently only special enough for Korea.
