Without getting into the gory technical details, picture HBD holders growing at much faster rate flipping the switch and injecting themselves into governance.

I mean, well, those that get more HP should affect governance. How they get it, if its making better choices in the market, it is how it should be.
If they buy "cumrocketshibainuharrybitcoinpotterethereum" and it pumps, then sell it for HP to affect governance, who am I to say they cant or its bad. :)
Why is it bad if someone does that with HBD?

APR envy and envy of someone else making better investment choices doesnt make sense to me.
Just make better investment choices. lol

Is HBD a better investment choice? Who knows. If Hive hits 1 USD, and you have your money in HBD it definitively isnt.
