Maybe an awesome summer is distracting me but I missed the drama and will have to check it out a little closer.
I believe we want all kinds of for profit companies finding a home on hive for their businesses and projects. The communities and members can become digital venture capitalists if they wish or decide not to. For sure the DHF should NOT be used to prop up failing ventures (like the banks were) but that didn’t appear to be what was proposed.
You have never been anything but an accessible leader acting as a steward for hive with your own skill and strengths as far as I have ever seen and leaders all agreeing with each other mean some of them are redundant. Redundancy is good for risk mitigation but not so great for progress sometimes. So, strong people here are going to disagree sometimes and that is natural.
Don’t let destructive trolls and frustrated have-nots muddy the waters of debate among constructive people or have that damage your vision for hive and passion to build.
It's excatly that. The old management created a hole in their books, and they struggle to attract new users. Now they're asking for funds to resolve that situation.
Besides that, all they want to do with the money is some obscure marketing. I'm 90% sure that the issues the game faces go way beyond onboarding of new users. They didn't lose droves of old players (including me) due to onboarding issues. It's also not the cause for the value of their tokens tanking. Except if they're a pyramid scheme.
There are many people who invested a small fortune, and they’d love to get some money back. Which basically means the not so early adopters need newbies to dump their assets, and that’s what generates the onboarding pressure.
Pyramid scheme confirmed
Well, it is my impression based on conversation with several investors. There's a Czech guy who
investedspent like 40k euro on cards, and I am quite sure he haven't got most of it back yet. Nobody buys cards in a mass scale now.
