Couldn't agree more with everything you said. Paywalls were introduced as a solution but you are actually forced to do one of two things - pay 10 different subscriptions and spend at least a hundred bucks a month for "diverse information" or stick with one outlet and in turn put all of your trust into them... It never made sense and it never will.

I still don't understand the inner workings of Hive completely but couldn't WSJ just create a frontend for them and their readers using the Hive infrastructure as the basis? They could even introduce their own token. I'm guessing that was the original idea behind Hive and Steemit, right?
