Yea but it's not keeping us here. They generally going to leave out. That is because freemium services have and always will work better when you building a network. Nobody pays for facebook, or instagram and they reach trillions of dollars based on Metcalfe's law. The smart thing to do is imitate the model and make your money off the network deferred.

The problem is we need to stave off short term immediate gratification. So networks like the pi network have figured it out. They already have north of 25 million users. Probably within a few years they'll surprass bitcoin. Hive is never going to get there until they understand these basic ideas. The trajectory of dpos since 2016 hasn't been good. I'm not sure what metric they using. I don't see it but just trying to help. However they gotta be open to the help. I know the math is on my side and the future of our economics and crypto. i don't think they have figured it out yet.

I agree with you on participation and being social does increase your chances. I know for me the stigma with that and many others early on was they felt more like it was kissing up lol. So it kinda left a bad taste in peoples mouth. I think they should hide the earnings but they want full transparency. I'm confident everything i've created is what the people want and will choose the next wave. In this first wave this is just the wave of the gamblers and risk takers. The next wave is the actual practical use and that's what's going to shake many of these projects out. I wont say which ones but i can tell you it will be many. So we'll see if my prediction holds up. I think so but i have been wrong before and some things have been unpredictable. This time i think i'm right though.
