Major changes in progress! : INCOME token

You all may know that I think INCOME token is "the best token on HIVE", maybe that is marketing speak, but its 7 years of tweaks and creativity, lessons learned. I am always playing. The reblog feature is one of my favorites, used extensively by @melinda010100, and sure, some people did "buy my token" because it meant I might vote on them, but many also found out I frequently and dynamically adjusted the conditions like tags, wordcount and posting frequency to "play" - I always wanted to encourage an open "game" about learning how-to-HIVE.

And sometimes you have to "play a new game".

It seems like we are in the middle of a transition period here on HIVE, and I am not against that. I am an "adapt and survive" kind of guy, and whatever the results of these upcoming innings, I would keep shoving data into the HIVE blocks/database, frankly no one could stop me.

This isn't even my final form

While I cannot tell you what the future holds, I can tell you what has already been changed.

  • There are no more daily divs.
  • There are no more daily curation digests.

We are still curating, for now, by the "old rules"; which are still secret sauce in their entirety, but I am not sure if that will last forever in its current form (in fact, I'm "pretty sure" they won't). I need time to think, think of a better game to play. Think of where my new "value add" can come from.

I will keep playing, just figuring out a new game.

There is a pool, use the market. Try not to be degens, you can also list on the books. But - they are your tokens to do with as you please.

If you hold INCOME, you will still be a curator for us. Its your choice, and I respect it.

I will announce further information as I work out the details. I am reorganizing ALL the things I do on HIVE, and maybe its "the perfect time" too, because honestly, I don't need to be clicking so many buttons each day - I AM BUSY! Busy with good and great things.

I should mention one more thing, since I sent a lot of "random shit tokens" over to the fund over the years, without recompense, and I also am the largest holder, with around 2/3 of the tokens - I will be shaking the dust directly into my own wallet. These tiny hive-engine holdings that I never even bothered to calulate into the ABV, yeah I'm just going to eat that as I please - won't wait around to "mierenneuken", but don't worry about the big stuff - if it comes to that - we split it up.

This is not a rug, its a reorg.

And I don't have all the details for you yet. If timing is important to you - there's a market for that.

Its been fun - 7 years! - and I have learned a lot along the way. This was my baby, but also - it has grown. Its "too hard to explain" anymore. And I never shilled it anyway, probably most people don't even know it exists, even some of my good buddies. I hate shill, I love build. Its just who I am.

And I am building on HIVE!

"Always has been."

Freedom and Friendship

Yes, apparently so, @ecoinstant:

"It seems like we are in the middle of a transition period here on HIVE ..."

With at least a little bit of an idea behind this disruption, I am honestly not sure what a new content creator should make of it.

It is intriguing to find you have an INCOME token. I read through your linked post and do not know what portion of explaining its potential to investors is going to survive what you are saying now.

"Yup! It's leverage at work again! Working for you my dear friend and member."

"Is this worth it to me? The short answer is yes but that's a break down for a longer post. If you'd like to read about it, mention it in the comments."

[emphasis added mine]

Maybe the answer is at least partially contained in this extract from that post. I'll put in my request here to let you know I would like to read more about it. As I assume this would include an update to what you consider the value proposition to now be for future investors.

I love your energy man!

But I will just say, bit of a weird time for anyone to be asking this question. Probably, based on this post, not the one from 3 months ago I can say -

Don't. At least yet.

"It seems like we are in the middle of a transition period here on HIVE"

I think you should have elaborated more in here. Personally, I am not sure what transition is going on in Hive. I just knew that there is something that is possibly coming from this post. I think that others who do not know about this would also stop and think, what changes?

There has been some discussion - and action! - around "disagreement on content curation methodologies". What that means.... I write a lot but somethings need time to unpack. I'm trying to participate tho.

I was only able to understand that in the last few months. Now, they are discussing a change.?

I hope it is for the better of the community as a whole..

The discussion is whether we should have a downvote war or not! So far, diplomacy is happening.

Oh, I see!

I guess that is a big change, if it were to happen.

Thanks for the update =D, & have a nice week ahead of you,

I will wait for these new changes in HIVE, hopefully for the better and not for many users to leave the platform.

7 years is a long time man. One thing I like about you is the way you keep changing things to keep it fresh. Change can be good sometimes and you're master of evolving, proud to have you on the chain

I have not had a dull moment on Hive since we made contact. !LOLZ

I am ok with holding and looking forward to learning more about the reorg.

And sometimes you have to "play a new game".
It seems like we are in the middle of a transition period here on HIVE,

For me its always the same game, just new strategies as required along the journey.

Fact: I came to another fork in the road today after listening to a podcast and reading several related blogs and Discord channels from the past week. It won't be a reorg for me but more of a project governance related change.

Glad to hear you are making positive changes. Some leaders choose to ignore their projects.

Thanks again for the update and I look forward to your next move. If you slowdown a bit it would be easy for me to follow you.

It's unfortunate that the token has to change but I'm not dumping my micro stake! I have faith that you will turn it into something awesome. The 0.00071174 INCOME that I accumulated from my $0.20 stake in the WINE/WINEX pool has served me well so far.
