RE: Witness Update: Running v0.23.0 to Support Hive
See my reply here. As to the Korean community members you mentioned, I think their accounts were included based on the criteria mentioned. If they want to participate in Hive and they can convince the Hive community they will not support centralizing it as they seemed to do with Steem, hopefully things will get worked out.
I assume that you are not that naive to say it is realistic.
Airdrop exclusion list decision was made by selected few (you are one of the main witnesses and it seems that you were not even one of them), behind the curtain. Do you really think these "select few" who excluded them would love to admit that they did a mistake?
From their perspective, they won't view it as a mistake. If the proposal system works to let those accounts participate in the airdrop, it won't matter what their view is because the community of token holders will decided.
"To maintain the overall supply of Hive at the same level as Steem for launch, a portion of HIVE tokens will be airdropped to the Hive dev fund to create a robust resource pool for decentralized development."
So the SINMS still exists, we just have 'good people' in charge of it now?
Where did you get that info? Can you share the link?

Thanks, but not the exclusion list - where did you see the phrase about the 'hive dev fund'?

No mention of retaining the SINMS for the DAO in blocktrades' original post.
If there's money on offer, people will take it. I'd much rather see witnesses writing and reviewing code. If total supply were lower, and price higher, witness rewards could cover development costs, particularly as there's no clear, urgent path forward after SMT's, which is already coded.
Blockchains need funding to continue development, but if there's consensus to burn stake in the proposal system which got there as part of the Steemit ninja-mined stake, that can be discussed also. The ninja-mined stake was sold as stake to be used for development and promotion of the chain, so I see no contradiction putting it in the proposal system. It's the most accurate thing to do based on the commitments made for almost four years now, IMO.
All good arguments, but not even hinted at in blocktrades' original post.
I don't want the price to languish under 800,000 tokens a month in programmatic selling, just so the guy with grandiose promises and the right friends, can take his sweet time coding the flavour of the day on the base layer.
We've been there. You pay me $100,000 year to find Waldo, I'm never going to find him. All you'll get is poorer.
It's a silly game and I thought we'd stopped playing it.
Whether or not we stopped playing it will be determined by what proposals get funded and which ones don't which is decided not by an individual (as was the case with Ned), but by the token holder community.
