Frankly I stopped caring too much about inflation and distribution.
The issue is simple, inflation is too high to support redistribution without crashing the price.
Most of the whales behave well now and spread around their votes, so it's not a serious issue anyway.
If a content creater is somewhat decent and consistent they will slowly increase their holdings, too.
Hive keeps imporving, but the rest of crypto caught up a lot too. So Hive has to keep improving.
Keeping all your eggs in one basket is risky. That said Hive is still by far the best social media blockchain.
I think the DAO fund is a great way of sucking up inflation To Be Fair, I might have a dig into that, it's a good mechanism.
But yeah, the elephant in the room is the fact that Hive is a perpetually inflationary token, one of the things I tend to AVOID when I'm looking for new tokens to pick up!
Good point on the DAO. I forgot about that :)
