Well, they removed DV ...
it was not necessary for whaleshares anymore at that point
And for blurt it is only the hypocrisy of saying we are a peaceful platform.
But blurt takes fees for each action where whaleshares requires a decent mana ( staking ) to post and comment..i like both styles.
If hive was to take fees for all actions : commments and posting, those fees could be burn and help in burning the overall mined tokens.
Also we could create a side community in which we post ( mostly whales ) to burn tokens.
