RE: Busy Transitional Day!
Just because they're giving them 2x rewards based on the value of the hive they purchased the votes for doesn't change much, if that's what you're implying to with the curaton rewards. They're still voting based on who's paying, not things curators look to reward and direct inflation to.
I just stumbled upon a post @vempromundo going over the HSBI project and the fact they hadn't upvoted the post just cause (what I assume) the author doesn't have units or has purchased votes kind of proves my point of what's wrong with these schemes. It's a little sad to say the least that the creator consumed and left a response but didn't reward a post literally talking about his own project with a vote.
I don't want people to read too into this example but if all we vote is just whoever gives us money I don't think I need to remind people of how that went a few years ago.
You have made very good and reasonable arguments.
For me, this HSBI stock has always been a normal bid-bot.
I think Mr. Savage is running his project with honest and good intentions. However, this service is no longer necessary. Instead of paying Hive for HSBI shares, Hive can be sent directly to the recipient via the “tip” button on PeakD. This is easier, faster and saves on the reward pool.
Even though this HSBI share is run with good intentions, there are always people who take advantage of it for their own gain.

I understand and agree with your position. After all, if we talk about a topic and bring it up, we expect at least some 'consideration'. A vote would be interesting, but a comment like his, giving space for an 'interview' also seemed interesting to me, because at least I will be able to clear up all the doubts that I and many others have about the HSBI program.
However, I wasn't bothered by the lack of an upvote, since I didn't even know who the account holder was, much less that I was on his radar when I made the post. I always try to talk about topics that my followers are talking about, whether on the feed or on Discord, because I believe that is what they would like to consume. But I understand your point of view, your criticism, and I consider it valid. After all, when someone mentions one of my initiatives, I am happy and gave my upvote to the person as a form of consideration.
