Meh, all economies have spenders, savers and investors, trying to control other via incentives is just adding more pressure. A better way to get people to hold is to create opportunity and abundance. FOMO is a great motivator. This thing is going to grow, and you don't want to miss out is more powerful, but to each their own.
I support people using their stake how they want to and to provide incentives, personally I'd rather focus on networking, building and growing and embrace that various people are at different financial stages in their lives, and that creates balance.
My opinion always focus on attracting growth (demand) instead of trying to stifle supply, but we do have a lot of fear based people in the community.

Definitely, and I truly think that we need all types of users on Hive and Leo, and we need the spenders, the hodlers, even the Fudders.
My voting behavior changes every lunar eclipse though, at one point I used to focus on most active users, then on interesting bloggers, then on plancton users... and so on. I decided to focus on hodlers right now because of the market conditions, but most likely this voting pattern will change once the market does.
I agree about the growth attraction instead of the supply stiffling, but in these conditions where there's fear everywhere well... it's people who trust the ecosystem and are balls deep who imo should get my votes. It's more of a statement other than an encouragement, because my vote is worth peanuts xD
We need them all, and I also support those who have been here a long time and enjoy it, as long as they aren't out there running people off the platform with their weird rules!
Cheers!
