Since we moved from x^y to linear rewards, we opened the gates to silly land.
The latest suggestion is to abandon rewards.
Because content curation (reading) is too hard. And... AI bad!
Should this idiotic idea gain any more traction:
I will power down and move into BTC, until someone steps up to fork this thing back into what it was intended to be.
Crabs in a bucket
Not crows on a telephone line.
Let's face it: The people running the show now, thought it was a good idea to name this thing 'Hive'.
...have you seen HAF?
At this point, I wouldn't trust them to change a lightbulb.
Offer
I am not smart enough or skilled enough to do much about it by myself.
I am, however, willing to:
- Move all my Hive assets to a new chain or fork, that brings the idea back, which was described in the original whitepaper.
- Go full time into dev mode for 1-2 years and help where I can with my limited skills.
I have a pretty clean track record. I have said some silly stuff and I have made mistakes, but overall, I hope I have build some trust here.
It's all on chain... at least for now, until they also get rid of the blockchain itself.
I really thought I was part of something new here, something that would outlast myself.
I really thought I was part of some revolutionary new technology and governance model.
Maybe it was an idea ahead of its time, maybe I am the nutter now.
It felt good for a while, anyways.
Times change
I am done fighting windmills. I am loyal to a code, that no longer exists.
I have made friends and I have learned a lot. Happy days.
Nothing lasts forever, though, and it might be time to move on.
I really wish 
He had a great idea.
