Hard to say. It's a thankless job.
The same people who want stuff out of this place and disagree with how things are going are often the same who'll say HP holders are "idiots" or not doing the right thing. I think that's normal though. It boils down to one wanting control, feeling powerless, so they must compensate by acting hard. Just people being people.
If neighbors each have an orchard but one cuts theirs down for firewood, they will forever be resentful of the continuous harvest next door, and boast about their heat, even if they're hungry, because it's all they have to be proud of.
"A lot of people" you say.
It's only 100k and you're only one human. Best to listen to yourself. That's all you're in control of anyway. 100 with 1000HP each has the same, yet that would be 100 more people around enjoying and supporting the show, making a bigger impact due to their numbers.
Unfortunately several from that group would look around, see people with more, and feel inadequate. They'd even have people calling them "small fish" and whatever else which is dehumanizing and uninviting on top of that. If they're concerned about status and their image, that would be demoralizing internally but look different on the outside.
Can you imagine how lively this small town would be with 100000 people all with 1000HP each roaming around enjoying the music for example and just having fun rather than posting? Can you see how that would improve things? Yet even the smallest amount per individual yielding a large impact like that, is discouraged. For the most part, people do that to themselves. But they also have peers saying it would be idiotic. And they also feel like if they're not earning as much as their neighbor, they're doing something wrong, and don't want to be seen in that light. I personally believe people shouldn't be concerned with that nonsense and just enjoy themselves but after 8 years, that culture is tough to break through.
Anyway. That's my answer. It's your call. You're only one "orca" and it boils down to personal choices. Not my job to tell you yes, or no. If you want to help and contribute, then do so. If not, then don't.
Thanks for such a well-.thought and well written answer - agree with a lot - times have changed and ideally we create an environment everyone feels equally welcomed and appreciated no amtter what stake they have - also would love smaller hurdles to start (still). Hope the small town will someday ( I might now be alive then) become a capital for crypto vision.
I like the firewood example, good role model for some things here.
Times certainly have changed. 8 years is a long while. In life, some things never change and everywhere one goes, a supportive audience always plays the most important role. And the people sitting in the cheap seats always make up the majority. They also make the most noise, having a good time.
Often, that's what is missing here. As soon as people catch on, we'll have "mass adoption." Not everyone can be an artist but that never stops them from enjoying the arts. Not everyone can be a reporter but that never stops people from watching the news. Not everyone can be a teacher but that never stops people from wanting to learn.
This tech protects our history in all those fields, and more.
That's why I stick around. I truly believe someday, this will all come together.
As long as the tribe can stop fighting over petty things, like who took the most beads, it has a strong chance of happening. Time to focus on reality and be real.
As long as folks like you are here and trust it I am a bit confident - thx dude.
