RE: Publicity or Privacy: which do you want?
The concept of KYC in crypto sometimes feels Counterproductive
Sometimes?
One of the big points for crypto (if not the biggest): If you own the keys, you own the coins.
KYC means I have to trust a third party. Some person, agent, ...whatever.
privacy
A different matter; A lot of people choose to reveal all their personal information on Hive. (Or advertise their wallet adress somehow with other crypto)
You could be entirely pseudonymous here on Hive...
So, to answer the title: KYC is the opposite of what I am here for.

This is true, you can, and one of the proof is that I haven't seen your face, or know your name, but I still have a vivid identity of who you are based on your on-chain personality.
Quick one: what do you think of the concept of the KE ratio?
I have often checked an author's total earnings and compared it to their HP.
I have basically checked the KE ratio before it was even given a name.
It should not be the only metric to judge an author or content by, though.
Sometimes it would be better to only judge the content of the piece, regardless of the author.
Should KE be part of the interface, like on peakd? I think it's not elegant to put it next to an author's name...
I wouldn't have done it that way. It's kind of handy to have quick access to it, though.
