I'm not at all against DPoS, except that pure DPoS is nothing more than plutocracy. The society we all are part of is far more than it's economy. The governance of that society needs to reflect that, and presently governance of Hive does not.

That DPoS can never long resist censorship, because, as I pointed out, more money is being spent to censor folks today than the market caps of all cryptos combined. Steem was a fairly small platform, but they came for it, and Hive is the offspring of that assault, to which Steem succumbed.

They're coming for Hive. All they need to get it is more money than the oligarchs have, or even just enough to make them nominal offers. Just because it can resist censorship doesn't mean it will. Any platform can resist censorship. Few do. Steem doesn't.

As they conjure more and more money out of thin air, that money becomes worth less and less. As folks make more and better stuff for themselves,they need money less and less to do so. We're headed for a post-market economy, in which values besides economic will be generally far more highly valued than money. It's best to get in front of that trend, particularly on Hive, because big money is coming for it,and Hive is completely vulnerable to stake.

That's all it takes to take Hive over. Nothing more valuable than money is necessary, and free speech is far more valuable than money. Our lives and freedom completely and utterly depend on the ability of folks to reveal factual information to us. That's why the censors are coming: to reveal our soft white underbellies, so that we can't resist whatever they want to do.

It won't be to make us money that has value.
