What were the recent mistakes and what have you learned from them?
This was addressed in the post in the "How we got here" section. Had we remained focused on Splinterlands and not building a million other products and conserved funds rather than spending them all under the assumption that a bull market would continue we would not be in this position right now.
That had been my (@yabapmatt) position all along, but I was not the CEO at the time and not in a position to make those decisions. Now that I am, I am doing what I can to turn things around and I will not make those mistakes.
anyone with a critical thought in their head would ask you to work much harder than this for funds.
We have been working hard for 6 years now, and I believe we have done quite a lot to benefit Hive over that time.
What if you continue to fail after funding is approved and you move anyway? Can you give guarantees that won't happen?
That is always a possibility, and no one can guarantee success. Obviously we have a higher chance of being successful here on Hive if we have additional funding, but it is up to the Hive stakeholders to decide if the potential benefits outweigh the potential risks.
