I'm just confused as to which direction Hive is going. And nobody here can convince me millions of people would be interested in purchasing the power to elect people who don't even interact with anyone or state clear goals, showing a path that clearly benefits all involved.

Hive is going in the proper direct, many different ones. It is a back end database. What is built upon it is the crucial factors. It is no different than Ethereum; that token got a lot of attention during ICO, cryptokitties, and not DeFi. Do you think most people on there care about Ethereum? I dont. Most are after the return and Ethereum is where the action is. If it was elsewhere, that is where people would be headed towards.

As for the wintesses, they are doing what they are paid to do, run the blockchain. It seems everyone wants them to be the "leaders" of Hive which they are not. In fact, it is evident most are not really able to run businesses. They might be developers yet are not ones who know marketing and growth.

If people want a change, that is where buying the tokens comes in. Stake changes the power of one's witness vote. So the question is who is going to do that? Ultimately, it will come down to those at the second layer who have a vested interest ie the builders.

As I wrote on a few different occasions, Hive desperately needs a couple more wealth centers. Right now all the wealth is in the Hive token. If we have a few other projects take off, like LEO is doing, suddenly people have a lot more resources than before. Suddenly, they have more of an interest.

Hence, they might be willing to power up to support, for example, Leofinance as a consensus witness. That would start changing the power structure of Hive. Get 5 or 7 witnesses in, and suddenly the entire situation changes.
