How to DAO

@redditposh: This post has been shared on Reddit by @bhattg through the HivePosh initiative.

@urun: I see a problem since a lot of people think DAO means it should pay for everything. I don't think that should be the case at all. Market mechanics beat everything. With downvotes i see the opinion flagging + and with upvotes, Cluster voting. Out Hive Police still against memes, fun, sharing news, otherwise ppl get blacklisted. I think this did damage Hive in the Millions in marketcap ( you can check current Power downs, is in millions and some i know say directly this or say it openly). Like power up 100k 200k or even 500k doesn't allow you to support the content you want ( meme pages, news or whatever). hive has no content feed with useful content and that is mostly the reason. Let people post what they want ( besides harmful content) and let the Front ends find out what they want to display. We are on the same side; more people means stronger currency. So give it to as much hands as possible.

It is a refuge. A rebellion. A return to what Hive.blog was always meant to be. There is no downvote button on Blurt. Not because we fear dissent—but because we honor creation. Because we understand that a voice, once raised in sincerity, deserves space—not sabotage. On Blurt, your words are your words. They are not hunted by algorithmic hounds or shadow armies masquerading as “curators.” Here, you are not judged by the grudges of gatekeepers, but met with the quiet dignity of a community that believes expression should be encouraged— especially when it is bold, raw, or inconvenient. Contrast this with what festers elsewhere. On Hive.blog—a place once brimming with promise—a rot has taken root. Not in its code, but in its culture. A handful of self anointed enforcers—@themarkymark, @Buildawhale, @Hurtlocker, and their legion of coordinated puppets—have turned the downvote into a weapon of mass discouragement. They strike not at “low quality content,” but at independent thought , at rising voices , at anyone who dares thrive outside their narrow corridors of control . And when confronted, they shrug. “Oh, it’s not censorship,” they say, as if semantics could scrub the stain of suppression from their hands. But let us be unequivocal: When a system allows a few to systematically silence many—under the guise of “community standards” or “curation”—that is not moderation. That is censorship by another name. It is the velvet glove over the iron fist. It is exclusion dressed as discernment. It is power pretending to be principle. Meanwhile, Blurt stands clean handed and open hearted. No downvotes. No hidden juries. No farms of phantom accounts casting ballots in the dark. Just you. Your words. And a community that meets you not with suspicion, but with solidarity. So let us carry this truth far and wide—not with bitterness, but with quiet certainty: If you seek a place where your voice is not a target—but a gift—come to Blurt. If you are tired of building on ground that shifts with every whim of a whale or warlord of votes—lay your bricks here. If you believe the future of free expression must be free —not just from corporations, but from the petty tyrants who replace them—then stand with us. The world needs to know. Not because Blurt is perfect—but because it is principled . Not because it is loud—but because it listens . And in an age where so many platforms echo with the clatter of control, Blurt offers something radical: Silence for the bullies. Space for the rest of us. Keep speaking. Keep sharing. Keep building. Freedom doesn’t advertise itself— it is passed, person to person, like a torch in the night. And tonight, the torch burns bright on Blurt. @themarkymark, @buildawhale, @usainvote, and associated accounts: Repeated downvotes targeting transparency efforts raise urgent questions about Hive’s governance. Automated tactics, coordinated curation trails, and alt account farming undermine trust in the platform. When truth is silenced without dialogue, it erodes Hive’s decentralized ethos. Key Concerns: 1. Systemic Manipulation : Coordinated downvotes from high HP accounts suppress dissent, creating a chilling effect on free expression. Automation and alt account networks allegedly exploit rewards, distorting organic curation. 2. Community Exodus : Creators flee to platforms like Blurt, where downvotes don’t exist, fearing punitive curation over engagement. 3. Governance Crisis : Hive’s credibility hinges on accountability. Who decides what content thrives? How do we audit power structures? Solutions Needed: Curation Transparency : Publish clear rationales for downvotes to foster trust. Community Audits : Leverage blockchain data (e.g., Bilpcoin’s analyses) to identify abusive patterns. Reward Reform : Adjust algorithms to penalize manipulation and reward authentic engagement. The Bilpcoin team advocates for open dialogue, not division. Hive’s future depends on collaboration—not coercion. Let’s rebuild a platform where truth isn’t buried but debated, strengthened, and celebrated. Transparency isn’t optional—it’s the foundation of trust. HiveTransparency BilpcoinExposed DecentralizePower" A Message to @themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Associates Every downvote cast in shadow, every silence imposed without dialogue, is not a victory—it is a confession. A confession that truth cannot be stifled, only delayed. With each punitive click, you dig deeper into the bedrock of credibility, crafting a chasm between your actions and the community’s trust. @themarkymark, @buildawhale & Co, How can you continue to downvote the truth, LOL? It’s almost comical how blatantly you attempt to suppress what cannot be hidden. The blockchain records everything—every action, every transaction, every move you make. Yet still, you persist in this futile game of trying to silence what is undeniable. @themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Co: While our opinions may differ, on chain transparency reveals repeated patterns of concern. Coordinated downvotes without explanation, 'farming' schemes (e.g., buildawhalefarm), and adversarial engagement harm Hive’s community driven ethos. Key Issues to Address: 1. Downvote Practices : Silencing dissent erodes trust. Constructive dialogue, not punitive curation, fosters growth. 2. Accountability : Transactions and curation trails are public. Scrutiny is inevitable—integrity demands addressing concerns openly. 3. Community Impact : Driving users to platforms like Blurt/Steemit weakens Hive. Creators seek ecosystems that value collaboration over conflict. A Path Forward: Engage in open discussions about governance and fairness. Audit curation practices to align with Hive’s decentralized values. Prioritize transparency—publish explanations for downvotes or collaborative reforms. The Bilpcoin team remains committed to exposing truth and advocating for solutions. Let’s work toward healing, not division. Note: All claims are based on publicly verifiable blockchain data. Constructive dialogue is encouraged. HiveTransparency CommunityFirst BilpcoinSupport" @themarkymark & Co, the choice is yours. Stop the bad downvotes. Turn off the BuildaWhale scam farm. Cease playing with people’s livelihoods. Let Hive thrive as it was meant to—as a beacon of hope, creativity, and collaboration. Or step aside and let those who truly care take the reins. Because the truth won’t disappear. No amount of lies can change it. It’s over. The Bilpcoin team brings these truths not out of malice but necessity. We have no need to fabricate lies or cloak our intentions CALL US WHAT YOU LIKE —for the facts speak loudly enough on their own. What we present here is not conjecture but reality, laid bare for anyone willing to see. @themarkymark & Co we urge you once more: STOP . Stop hiding behind tactics that harm others. Stop clinging to practices that erode trust within the Hive community. Let the truth stand—not because we proclaim it, but because it exists independent of any one person’s approval or disdain. TURN OFF THE BUILDAWHALE SCAM FARM STOP THE BAD DOWNVOTES STOP PLAYING WITH PEOPLE’S LIVELIHOODS Key Issues That Demand Immediate Attention: The problems are glaring, undeniable, and corrosive to the Hive ecosystem. They must be addressed without delay: Downvote abuse Farming schemes Speaking disrespectfully to others Encouraging people to avoid certain users out of personal dislike Self voting with alt accounts Self funding projects through self votes Promoting games that don’t even exist (LOL) These practices harm not just individual users—they undermine the very foundation of Hive, eroding trust and poisoning the community.

@forkyishere: Both options sound very sound... actually sounds very natural to have the exact same flexibility there that we already have by curating normal content. And on top of that proposals have already a post associated, so the first vote could even be automated, as in... what you vote the post of the proposal gets automatically voted on the proposal too (and later on, you can change if you changed you mind). At least will make more people that are just voting for the post, to also mimic that transfer to the same sentiment on the real proposal. And yes, I know its not really the same thing, but for most that don't know, it would harvest a lot more of participation.

@hivetrending: This video reminds me why we are here

@bhattg: Thanks for the motivation 😑, I was a bit down to the overall crypto prices thank you. I am not a big stake holder but still I am here from past 8 years and trying my best to be here and helping others with my power and inviting others to be here. You always motivate with your video thanks you so much. Yes you are right nothing is perfect, but we can make the palce close to perfect. A few of my friends left hive most of them are not here for sure because of the price. They know the potential but still it feels sad. Maybe this video will give them motivation. Have a great day and week ahead. !PIZZA

@ph1102: Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with the community, and we need more of these talks, definitely... I miss the days of HIVE Town Halls with over 50 100 participants, where people would share ideas and figure out in which direction we should go... Regarding downvotes on proposals... I know it was mentioned before, at least I asked a question about it, and there was a reason why we DON'T HAVE them, but to be honest, I forgot the reason behind it... Maybe it was because we had Return Proposal, which was shown a few months ago, in an obvious example that it isn't enough... Hopefully, we will implement downvotes on proposals, as with the current system, it's kind of demotivating for (ordinary) Hivians (not whales), to even check proposals, as their vote doesn't mean anything... And when we are on that topic, I wouldn't say that smaller stakers don't care (or care less) about HIVE, governance, or the price... For a person who invests a lot of time, effort, and money, even a small stake means a lot... Some people will appreciate their hard earned $10 more than others who got thousands "for free"... Thanks for speaking up! Hopefully, it will motivate others to participate in this discussion as it's important, and it matters! Picking this post for additional exposure!

@web3creative: Terrible projects should be stop receiving funding from the DAO as soon as they fail to meet their milestones. Since the Hive Thive show this week, I've removed my vote from all proposals except the return proposal. If we can get downvotes in DAO proposals, I'll use my HP to downvote underperforming proposals. Weighted voting is also a good idea. As far as small stakeholders, there's a lot of voter apathy. I'm of the opinion that people don't care much unless you have skin in the game. In fact, you should only be able to get rewards from the rewards pool if you have a certain amount of HP. That way we guarantee that everybody has skin in the game.
