Because of this approach, 99% of projects will choose Solana over Hive. Hive Engine is a joke. There are more problems than benefits with it. But only those who use these tokens practically, rather than theoretically or once a year, know this.
What about V4V? That was the only thing useful in real life that was in your previous proposal.
You need to be specific in what it is you mean by "Hive Engine is a joke" in terms of functionality that you need.
My experience with Hive Engine has been very good for many years. The trust assumption there isnt to my liking, which Magi does solve, but Hive Engine has given birth to many great projects over the years.
And for the V4V mention what is the functionality that gives you the "real world usefulness". It would be easier to address your needs if you could specify them exactly.
Regarding Hive-Engine: it is very slow, and we’ve had many situations where it simply didn't work, which effectively discouraged new users from using it (e.g., node issues).
Regarding V4V: thanks to this app, we can completely bypass exchanges and live directly off crypto. In Krakow, I can go to a cafe and pay with HBD. Thanks to this, in November at the Kingdom, we were able to carry out the first Hive Voluntary Service project and pay for everything in HBD without converting to PLN.
So youre using it to pay with Bitcoin? The lightning payments? Thats still available, not going anywhere as far as i know. Once more liquidity gets into pools the payments should be routed via our pools.
