¿Hive middle class rising and getting stronger?
Of what freaking Middle Class are you talking about? Because if for such assertion you are basing your guesses on the charts of @arcange. It has never occurred to you that this slight increase in the number of dolphins and orcas with the corresponding decrease in the number of whales that is shown in the graphs. All this supposed increase in the number of members of the "middle class" it simply corresponds to the HP delegations that these and the same whales of always have just made to a group of their own alt accounts to simply diversify their "curation" incomes and obfuscate their true capital a bit better?
Or like it is also more than obvious that it has also happened. That many of these same whales simply have delegated a large amount of their huge HP with the same ill intention as the previous procedure, to a heap or handful of docile slaves and parasitic sycophants to do the "content curation" work that they don't want to do by turning these useless specimens instantly into new dolphins and orcas?
Because for me at first glance, this explanation does seem like a simpler, more lucid and coherent mathematics to interpret the figures in these graphs.
