@shortsegments's thread

Thank you for the information.

@blocktrades is a very knowledgable developer on Hive now and previously on Steem. He also runs a witness.

I appreciate any information he has to share, and I believe it is 100% correct.

HBD is thinly traded and because it is, he is absolutely correct it doesn't fulfill the same role as USDT, mainly a place to park your profits from speculation on altcoins or bitcoin.

HBD has an important role here on Hive and a profitable one.

I agree with what he says about the Bots. Did he offer any information about where those bits originate, and does he participate?
