Yes this is similar to the post i just did about anti whale coins. So vc's come in invest alot of money but then what does that equal? that equals they now control the network. So in an economy there is no historical data that suggest good economies look like that. When the distribution and liquidity is the product of a minority of whales like some projects live or die based on people like marky mark lol.

So what if marky mark decides he wants to do his own project and focus on it only? Or he decides he's made changes in his views of cryptocurrency or some personal issue causes him to want to sell out. Now what you have is projects like on hive engine where one guy is responsible for half the liquidity pool. " if you live by the whale, you may die by the whale"

So value really comes from people. It doesn't come from one person controlling resources that's an unhealthy economy. No matter how you flip it it's always going to be on teh verge or lead to neofeudalism.. Balances of socialism and capitalism is not the problem. The problem is in the occurence of cryptocurrencies most models aren't as good as bitcoin. Bitcoin it is suggested that 87% is owned by 1% of the network.

I'm willing to die on that hill that hive is as bad or worse. These percentiles in cryptocurrency are horrible and aren't good at all. It doesn't matter how often the story is told that it is.. That's not what it is. If you're a whale if you're a benefactor of these systems i promise you that your successes will always be stagnate or you'll always be in danger. That is because your perspective of success is from your own personal experience. However when you take the average user is it worth their time to add value to the network? Well if the percentages are like bitcoin probably not.

The economic engine of economies of these platforms are never going to be whales ever. However in cryptocurrency we believe they are because the economies are still somewhat small but that doesnt promote growth. To explain why value comes from people as a network is based on velocity of money. if money distributes to someone elses hands that dollar can become double and triple.

if the value is locked away to a minority group that economy becomes more and more unhealthy. There may be several solutions inbetween. However the point is whales are bad. They always have been. it may not be the whales fault but its still bad for them to exist my belief is because they generally aren't helpful to an economy. Now ever so often a guy comes along and he revolutionizes the world he may advance the world. However how do we describe advancement? I don't consider it advancement when 50% of the world's resources are controlled by 1%...i don't consider it advancement when 87% of the bitcoin network is owned by 1% . i don't care what the reasons are that is ..but that it is.

So any idea of freedom that adds up to most people starving or barely making ends meet to say that you free.. Then that means freedom may not be all it's cracked up to be. So whether its vc's controlling the network or a few whales it's the same difference to me. " Freedom starts at breakfast". So liquidity is going to ultimately be a product of growth and a healthy economy. Won't be a handful of whales
