Rhetorical question: would you evaluate Jeff Bezos' wealth by looking at his personal bank account instead of his Amazon holdings?

I discussed at length establishing a better membership definition while the charter was still being discussed, and I was fully assured in the discord that I would be a founding member if I registered the Hive account@steembasicincome account in the Discord (proof of keys), which I did. Then because I signed the constitution from my own account (because I'm joining as myself, not as Hive account@steembasicincome) I'm listed as a 'friend of the council' instead of listed as a 'founding member.'

So even during working group, things that should be defined in the charter were not defined, relying instead on verbal assurances which have not come to fruition. If you can't even properly define who can be a member with active feedback from somebody who spends a lot of time designing incentives around edge cases and potential abuse...

At this time, I have zero confidence in this dolphin council ever making an impact on Steem.
