RE: Soul Shard Protocol & Friend.Tech Update

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

Way back in olden day I had an idea that was similarly adjacent to what FT has created today. The concept was to give every account on Hive a "soul". Basically every account on Hive would become its own currency, and that currency could act as a reputation system or a loan network or a handful of other use-cases. I now realize that Friend.Tech has made some significant improvements to this idea and forces me to refactor the concept to incorporate these upgrades.

Essentially they just stole this concept from the Diamond App

Can one really "steal" an open source idea?

Is it open source? It's a figure of speech anyway and you understand what it means...

Yep I do understand what you said perfectly.
I do not understand why you said it or the significance of it.

Like if I say you stole your genes from mom and dad.
Why would I say that?
What does it mean?
Am I really just vaguely commenting on the origin?
Or does using the word "stole" come with a negative connotation and hidden subtext?

I don't understand why you implied you came up with the idea in the first place either, so...

But you also rebutted with an assumption, because I'm pretty sure you didn't check if it was open source or you'd have known where it originated and have answered my question questioning your statement... So, I'm making a safe assumption, while you weren't.

'Stole' simply means unoriginal in this context.

Indeed I'm pretty sure I saw it on a Simpsons episode as well.
