Thank you @disregardfiat and everyone else for seeing this through to a workable product even though you were underpaid for it. I hope there is a way for the community to back pay you and the others for this. Is my memory correct that the fate of the unclaimed air dropped tokens is still to be determined or am I confusing that with the Ragnarok airdrop?
If so, maybe there is a way for you and all the other major contributors of this soon to be awesome product to be paid with those tokens? I know you all have done this without a premine etc, so I would be interested to hear @theycallmedan and @starkerz thoughts on something like that, if it is even possible. I think those tokens or some percentage should go to Dan and Matt as well, but that is just my 2 cents. I know you all have worked to do this “the right way” but that shouldn’t mean working for free.
I mean, dang, think of all the projects that were paid and never delivered or were paid and left the community. We should make this right for you and the others, even if it is “overpaying” for you to continue the work. Something.
Ooh... I don't think that's a good way to start this out. The tokenomics of this ecosystem are pretty robust, and we have a lot more data to store from Hives image servers and 3speak videos... While 75% of the tokens did go unclaimed, that's 75% less selling pressure. We held 15% of claimed tokens to be put into a DAO, but building that DAO means more work :p
I'm not too worried about this in particular. It's not just me either... the DHF is a whim machine sometimes. I'd be much happier to see my recent Hard Fork Proposal to change the vote counting metrics of the DHF receive serious debate.
Having built L2s, DePIN, NFTs, DEXs... I'm not exactly unmarketable. I'd just rather build here than Solana.
