Mantequilla-Soft Proposal – 100K HBD for 3Speak and Snapie (Beneficiary: @null)

Now that we have your attention, here’s what this proposal is actually about.

Hello everyone,

Some of you may have already heard about Mantequilla-Soft. For those who haven’t, here’s a brief introduction.

Mantequilla-Soft is an open-source development initiative building and maintaining applications within the Hive ecosystem. We are currently responsible for the ongoing development and maintenance of 3Speak and Snapie. You can find all of our GitHub repositories at the end of the post.

Although Mantequilla-Soft is a relatively new initiative, it is led by long-time Hivers such as @meno and @eddiespino. Both applications are fully operational today, and in the case of 3Speak, the platform has seen significant improvements in stability, performance, and infrastructure efficiency. This progress required a considerable amount of work, and we believe it would be a mistake to let that effort go to waste.

Transparency first

This proposal requests 100,000 HBD, with 100% of the funds directed to @null.

If this proposal passes, not a single HBD will come to us. The HBD will be burned and taken out of circulation.

The amount is intentionally symbolic and reflects the scale of the infrastructure and development that major Hive applications depend on.

Why this proposal exists

We want to be honest and transparent with the community: market conditions are currently very difficult. HIVE’s price has been under sustained pressure, and the broader crypto market is experiencing heavy losses.

Our original plan was to submit a smaller proposal focused on basic maintenance, including limited developer compensation. However, given the continued decline in HIVE’s price, we believe this is not the right moment to do so.

What must be covered, regardless of market conditions, are infrastructure costs. The good news is that, thanks to extensive optimization work carried out by @eddiespino and @meno, server and infrastructure expenses have been significantly reduced. Today, the cost of keeping 3Speak and Snapie online is roughly one-third of what it was in the past. We can barely cover expenses, but we are close to this not being the case.

It is also true that, like everyone else, we have bills to pay and families to support. That said, we do not believe that requesting a proposal in the range of 10K–30K HBD at this time is responsible, as it could add further pressure to the market.

Instead, this proposal is a statement—a call to action for all initiatives and projects. It’s time we all make necessary sacrifices for the sake of the chain we call home.

A value-for-value approach

If you believe in the work we are doing and want to support it, you can do so voluntarily through the following means:

There is no obligation, expectation, or entitlement attached to any of the above.

What happens next

Regardless of the outcome of this proposal, we will continue maintaining both 3Speak and Snapie.

This is not a ransom letter. We are not suspending projects, disabling features, or holding development hostage. Now is not the time for that kind of drama.

However, to remain realistic, this also means we will need to seek external work outside of Hive to cover personal expenses. As a result, development will focus primarily on maintenance, optimization, and completing features already in progress, such as the 3Speak TV app and 3Speak Shorts, playlists, and other features already announced. Large new feature development may be limited until market conditions improve.

We are not going anywhere. We will continue listening to community feedback and supporting the ecosystem in the ways that we can.

That was unnecessary condescension, and rude comment. @ladyaryastark was making a fair, grounded point, and you turned it into a mini lecture with a side of attitude. classic insider behavior in these type of threads. Anyone who challenges assumptions or asks a real question gets nudged, corrected, or dismissed. It’s the same dynamic my satire was lampooning: ritual and social policing over actual understanding.

@meno | Feb. 6, 2026, 4:55 a.m. | Votes: 2 | [ VOTE ]

It very well may be that you:

1) Don't know lady and I are friends
2) Know very little spanish to begin with

Translation:

Hello Lady

I'm not sure I understand. What do you mean? Did you read the money is being sent to null?

I suspect you only read the title, my friend.

If you find that rude, then I'm sorry. I don't know how to be any kinder than that.

@dreamtales | Feb. 6, 2026, 12:17 p.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

Framing a question as if it shows a lack of attention, even politely, is unnecessary. Her point was reasonable, and dismissing it as a misread title shuts down discussion instead of adding clarity. That's the condescending undertones I was referring too.

This is exactly the insider behavior my satire critiques, social policing over actual understanding.

@meno | Feb. 6, 2026, 1:15 p.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

So you are offended on her behalf? And somehow that is not condescending?

Listen. She thought I was asking for 100k - I've not asked for a single penny from the DHF. So her initial concern was unfounded.

You calling me an insider reveals your gripe. Im a dolphin living in a third world country. But somehow im "an insider"

Have a good day.

@dreamtales | Feb. 6, 2026, 1:50 p.m. | Votes: 0 | [ VOTE ]

I did not call you an insider. I was referencing the behavior. Even if the question is misaligned, you could answer it. I'm not offended either. Just pointing out behavior.

Ah yes, the classic “critique = confession” maneuver. Very reliable in these ecosystems. Point out a behavior, instantly become the insider.

I’ll make a note in my satire manual. Note to self: Accusing ritualized social policing automatically enrolls you as part of the ritual.

I know you guys did this to cause awareness... and props to that from me.

But I am not going to vote for it (not yet). Why? Well, I am not doing it yet because it will not solve anything, unfortunately. Burning funds from DHF does not help with inflation. Obviously, if everyone decides to bring proposals like this to cut off payments at the top for everyone, then this might change the picture. I would support something like that, but I don't think it would happen.

What would help is a better choice of how the funds of the DHF can be used and that requires better tools to be used by the decentralised community. And I am really fond of what Dan said on his video... https://3speak.tv/watch?v=theycallmedan/9beb647f

And I think those solutions would potentially help address the root cause of the usage of DHF funds.

Now, what can be done in mean time to help the situation faster...? I think it's mostly trying to convince the proposal's beneficiaries to do something and avoid more HBD from entering the circulation. Burning HIVE will/can help, but not much in my view. It will hurt a lot of people trying to ask for things... but we should all try to do something.

Cheers

The idea of this was precisely what you pointed out amigo. So we can all discuss this. I realize that as long as the funds are frozen in the DHF, they don't affect the price. But, what better way to put this front and center for everyone to see, to discuss.

Me listening to Dan's video is what prompted this very move. Eddie and I don't want to take the punches laying down, so to speak. This is the best way we can be loud.

We all need to carry a part of the load. All of us do.

Burning means that those HBD can´t be exchanged for Hive anymore which means those Hive can´t be sold on an exchange so they can´t make the Hive price go lower. Because each sell of Hive drives the price lower.

Hmm... I'm not sure how I feel about burning the 100,000 HBD. It's more about the fact that I'm not sure I 100% understand the economics behind it (it's ultimate effect).

But I'll say this: I support you. We desperately need the apps you guys maintain. When conditions do improve and you ask for the pay, you've certainly got my vote.

Thanks for all the effort you guys have put in.

The funny thing is that you don't need to understand all the technical and economical intricancies to understand that every hbd spent is typically spent on stuff that bring ZERO benefit to hive and just drag the price further down. Literally millions and millions spent for nothing.

Hive won't fix the water problem in Africa and clearly won't be winning any races any time soon. And let's not get started on stuff like the tip bot that cost 250k with nothing to show for.

Just fucking burn it.

I like the way it made me read it and hopefully many more will join the conversation.

Ever since we failed to get our one and only DHF proposal funded I decided that I wanted to take up the challenge to see if I could make Rising Star self sustaining.
Due to the lack of any kind of blow off top this cycle it is taking way longer than expected but it is moving in the right direction.

When you launch a game there is always excitement at the beginning so plenty of people spend to acquire packs, etc. If you put all of this income into a mixture of HBD savings and HP (and maybe a little BTC) then it is possible to grow the game's treasury and cover costs if you can keep the costs to a minimum.
Like traditional businesses you shouldn't expect to make a profit for at least the first 3 years so reinvesting in this way can make your game self-sustaining and live on into the future.
Once you have the costs covered you can start to think about taking ever increasing profit for the team.

So what I am trying to say, from the perspective of a dapp that gets income in some way, is that you don't need DHF funding if you are willing to be patient.

For dapps that need a little seed capital maybe a DHF fund could be inversely tied to the size of the dapp's treasury and finding discontinued if the treasury is not growing?

@meno | Feb. 6, 2026, 3:13 p.m. | Votes: 20 | [ VOTE ]

Our very own @tibfox is working on a DAO built on top of Magi. This is more or less the approach we want to take with Mantequilla.

The initial plan was to ask the DHF for some seed capital, but given the market conditions, its just not responsible. We align, tho...we align.

The economics of Hive are complex and making a project self-sustaining is not easy with such a small audience. Scaling up would solve some issues, but these are 'interesting' times for crypto. I would hope that the Hive community will endure as it has such great potential.

@webdeals | Feb. 6, 2026, 9:05 a.m. | Votes: 7 | [ VOTE ]

The HIVE platform on hive.blog is facing stagnation and value decline, mainly due to high inflation, uncontrolled DHF (Decentralized Hive Fund) outflows, and lack of user/dApp growth. As an expert, I analyze the DHF (the on-chain proposal system on peakd.com/proposals or dlux.io/proposals) and propose concrete solutions to submit to devs, focused on growth, investor appeal, and sustainability.

Main Problems
The DHF funds ~18,621 HBD/day, but without strict criteria, it leads to overspending and inflation, eroding HIVE value. There are no clear metrics (e.g., +10% users QoQ, marketing ROI ≥1.2x) or proposals for modern UX on hive.blog, like mobile/multichain integrations. This deters institutional investors who see operational risks.

Proposed DHF Solutions
I propose 4 short DHF proposals (max 3 months, with KPIs and quarterly reports) to relaunch hive.blog as if it were my own project. Each is argued below with rationale, expected ROI, and ties to current pain points.

UI/UX Modernization (200 HBD/day)
Rationale: Hive.blog's outdated interface (clunky desktop focus, poor mobile support) repels creators used to sleek platforms like Substack or Mirror. A React/Vue rewrite with AI tools (e.g., auto-summaries, NFT minting) would boost engagement 15% MoM, per similar Web3 upgrades.

KPIs & Impact: +15% monthly active users; 5 new dApp integrations (e.g., Splinterlands embeds). This directly counters user churn, making it investor-friendly by showing product-led growth without heavy marketing.

ROI Argument: Low-cost (reuse open-source libs), high leverage—modern UX historically doubles retention in blockchain social apps, justifying budget vs. DHF inflow.

Global Marketing Campaign (150 HBD/day)
Rationale: HIVE's visibility lags (low X/TikTok buzz, no influencer partnerships), causing trading volume drops amid 2026 market shifts. Target crypto influencers (e.g., 50K+ followers) and ads on growth platforms to acquire users at scale.

KPIs & Impact: Customer Acquisition Cost ≤$8; ROI 1.5x; 2,000 new wallets. Ties to value recovery by increasing HBD backing and HIVE demand.

ROI Argument: Measurable via UTM tracking; benchmarks from Solana/NEAR campaigns show 2-3x returns on similar spends, far outpacing inflation dilution.

Developer Bounty Program (100 HBD/day)
Rationale: Sparse dev activity (few GitHub PRs) stalls features like SMT/HMT upgrades or public testnets, as seen in past proposals. Bounties incentivize fixes and docs, building a self-sustaining ecosystem.

KPIs & Impact: 20 GitHub issues closed; 2 dev tutorials. Accelerates core improvements, attracting builders and signaling maturity to investors.

ROI Argument: Bounties yield compounding gains (e.g., one fixed bug = ongoing efficiency); historical Hive funds show 5x dev output per HBD invested.

Onboarding Toolkit (100 HBD/day)
Rationale: High entry barriers (complex Keychain setup, no QR/P2P) block newbies, especially post-Keychain 2025 proposal. A mobile Keychain app with multichain bridges (e.g., ETH/BSC) simplifies this.

KPIs & Impact: 500 wallets with 30-day retention; 2 business partners. Directly grows active stakes, stabilizing tokenomics.

ROI Argument: Retention-focused (cheaper than acquisition); onboarding tools in TON/Blast ecosystems boosted users 20x, proving viral potential.

Most of this makes no sense to me.

Why update hive.blog, when so many better alternatives already exist? Wouldn't that money be better spent directing people to PeakD or Ecency?

How is a MORE complicated mobile Keychain supposed to attract people for whom existing keychain set up is already too complicated?

Why use DHF for bounties? People could raise their own funds for that.

Why target ads on legacy platforms? As you said, there is an entry barrier to joining Hive that is too complex for most legacy web users. If you're going to do targeted ads, you should be advertising on competing blockchain platforms.

Just some thoughts from a guy who thinks too much and knows too little.

Blurt Stands — While Hive Stumbles Under the Weight of Its Own Shadows

from Imgflip Meme Generator

from Imgflip Meme Generator

Friends, creators, truth-tellers—

Let us not whisper this truth, but proclaim it with the clarity of dawn breaking over a weary land: Blurt.blog is not just another platform. It is a refuge. A rebellion. A return to what Hive.blog was always meant to be.

There is no downvote button on Blurt.
Not because we fear dissent—but because we honor creation.
Because we understand that a voice, once raised in sincerity, deserves space—not sabotage.

On Blurt, your words are your words.
They are not hunted by algorithmic hounds or shadow armies masquerading as “curators.”
Here, you are not judged by the grudges of gatekeepers, but met with the quiet dignity of a community that believes expression should be encouraged—especially when it is bold, raw, or inconvenient.

Contrast this with what festers elsewhere.

On Hive.blog—a place once brimming with promise—a rot has taken root. Not in its code, but in its culture. A handful of self-anointed enforcers—@themarkymark, @Buildawhale, @Hurtlocker, and their legion of coordinated puppets—have turned the downvote into a weapon of mass discouragement. They strike not at “low-quality content,” but at independent thought, at rising voices, at anyone who dares thrive outside their narrow corridors of control.

And when confronted, they shrug.
“Oh, it’s not censorship,” they say, as if semantics could scrub the stain of suppression from their hands.

But let us be unequivocal:
When a system allows a few to systematically silence many—under the guise of “community standards” or “curation”—that is not moderation. That is censorship by another name.

It is the velvet glove over the iron fist.
It is exclusion dressed as discernment.
It is power pretending to be principle.

Meanwhile, Blurt stands clean-handed and open-hearted.
No downvotes.
No hidden juries.
No farms of phantom accounts casting ballots in the dark.

Just you.
Your words.
And a community that meets you not with suspicion, but with solidarity.

So let us carry this truth far and wide—not with bitterness, but with quiet certainty:

If you seek a place where your voice is not a target—but a gift—come to Blurt.
If you are tired of building on ground that shifts with every whim of a whale or warlord of votes—lay your bricks here.
If you believe the future of free expression must be free—not just from corporations, but from the petty tyrants who replace them—then stand with us.

The world needs to know.
Not because Blurt is perfect—but because it is principled.
Not because it is loud—but because it listens.

And in an age where so many platforms echo with the clatter of control,
Blurt offers something radical:
Silence for the bullies.
Space for the rest of us.

Keep speaking.

Freedom doesn’t advertise itself—
it is passed, person to person, like a torch in the night.

And tonight, the torch burns bright on Blurt.

@themarkymark, @buildawhale, @usainvote, and associated accounts:

Repeated downvotes targeting transparency efforts raise urgent questions about Hive’s governance. Automated tactics, coordinated curation trails, and alt-account farming undermine trust in the platform. When truth is silenced without dialogue, it erodes Hive’s decentralized ethos.

Key Concerns:
1. Systemic Manipulation:
- Coordinated downvotes from high-HP accounts suppress dissent, creating a chilling effect on free expression.
- Automation and alt-account networks allegedly exploit rewards, distorting organic curation.

  1. Community Exodus:
    - Creators flee to platforms like Blurt, where downvotes don’t exist, fearing punitive curation over engagement.

  2. Governance Crisis:
    - Hive’s credibility hinges on accountability. Who decides what content thrives? How do we audit power structures?

Solutions Needed:
- Curation Transparency: Publish clear rationales for downvotes to foster trust.
- Community Audits: Leverage blockchain data (e.g., Bilpcoin’s analyses) to identify abusive patterns.
- Reward Reform: Adjust algorithms to penalize manipulation and reward authentic engagement.

The Bilpcoin team advocates for open dialogue, not division. Hive’s future depends on collaboration—not coercion. Let’s rebuild a platform where truth isn’t buried but debated, strengthened, and celebrated.

Transparency isn’t optional—it’s the foundation of trust.

A Message to @themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Associates

Every downvote cast in shadow, every silence imposed without dialogue, is not a victory—it is a confession. A confession that truth cannot be stifled, only delayed. With each punitive click, you dig deeper into the bedrock of credibility, crafting a chasm between your actions and the community’s trust.

from Imgflip Meme Generator

@themarkymark, @buildawhale & Co,

How can you continue to downvote the truth, LOL? It’s almost comical how blatantly you attempt to suppress what cannot be hidden. The blockchain records everything—every action, every transaction, every move you make. Yet still, you persist in this futile game of trying to silence what is undeniable.

from Imgflip Meme Generator

@themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Co: While our opinions may differ, on-chain transparency reveals repeated patterns of concern. Coordinated downvotes without explanation, 'farming' schemes (e.g., #buildawhalefarm), and adversarial engagement harm Hive’s community-driven ethos.

Key Issues to Address:
1. Downvote Practices: Silencing dissent erodes trust. Constructive dialogue, not punitive curation, fosters growth.
2. Accountability: Transactions and curation trails are public. Scrutiny is inevitable—integrity demands addressing concerns openly.
3. Community Impact: Driving users to platforms like Blurt/Steemit weakens Hive. Creators seek ecosystems that value collaboration over conflict.

A Path Forward:
- Engage in open discussions about governance and fairness.
- Audit curation practices to align with Hive’s decentralized values.
- Prioritize transparency—publish explanations for downvotes or collaborative reforms.

The Bilpcoin team remains committed to exposing truth and advocating for solutions. Let’s work toward healing, not division.

Note: All claims are based on publicly verifiable blockchain data. Constructive dialogue is encouraged.

@themarkymark & Co, the choice is yours. Stop the bad downvotes. Turn off the BuildaWhale scam farm. Cease playing with people’s livelihoods. Let Hive thrive as it was meant to—as a beacon of hope, creativity, and collaboration.

Or step aside and let those who truly care take the reins.

Because the truth won’t disappear. No amount of lies can change it.

It’s over.

from Imgflip Meme Generator

The Bilpcoin team brings these truths not out of malice but necessity. We have no need to fabricate lies or cloak our intentions CALL US WHAT YOU LIKE —for the facts speak loudly enough on their own. What we present here is not conjecture but reality, laid bare for anyone willing to see.

from Imgflip Meme Generator

@themarkymark & Co we urge you once more: STOP. Stop hiding behind tactics that harm others. Stop clinging to practices that erode trust within the Hive community. Let the truth stand—not because we proclaim it, but because it exists independent of any one person’s approval or disdain.

from Imgflip Meme Generator

TURN OFF THE BUILDAWHALE SCAM FARM
- STOP THE BAD DOWNVOTES
- STOP PLAYING WITH PEOPLE’S LIVELIHOODS

Key Issues That Demand Immediate Attention:

The problems are glaring, undeniable, and corrosive to the Hive ecosystem. They must be addressed without delay:
- Downvote abuse
- Farming schemes
- Speaking disrespectfully to others
- Encouraging people to avoid certain users out of personal dislike
- Self-voting with alt accounts
- Self-funding projects through self-votes
- Promoting games that don’t even exist (LOL)

These practices harm not just individual users—they undermine the very foundation of Hive, eroding trust and poisoning the community. Such actions are unethical and outright destructive.

> “It doesn’t hurt nor help.”
“It’s just a statement.”

Alright, then that explains it.

If the burn doesn’t actually do anything, then what’s left is the attention it creates. Calling everyone to look, framing it as sacrifice, and wrapping it together with project names, links, Discords, witnesses, and donation options.

It's actually just an advert for your projects and you used this to call attention to it.

I’m just taking the words at face value and following them to their obvious conclusion.

You can call it a statement, but statements aren’t neutral when they steer attention in a certain direction.

Your bucket is leaking.

@meno | Feb. 6, 2026, 7:53 p.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

You say this as if its ethically wrong to ask for support, when I've been working really hard on building the very tools you probably use as well for no compensation.

If that is your values, that's fine. You can think people should not try to make a living this way. But don't impose your moral "superiority" on others.

If you don't mind. Let's cut this off here. I find it pointless to continue talking. We simple don't share the same values as people.

@dreamtales | Feb. 6, 2026, 8:13 p.m. | Votes: 0 | [ VOTE ]

I didn’t say it was unethical to ask for support, and I didn’t question the work you’ve done. You introduced that frame, not me.

All I did was take the explanation given and follow it to its conclusion. If the burn doesn’t materially change anything, then the attention around it becomes the thing that matters. Pointing that out isn’t a moral judgment, it’s an observation.

If you want to stop the conversation, that’s fine. Just don’t rewrite what I said on the way out.

I love what @risingstar does, but they are an example of the problem we have. If you are not one of the names, you will NOT be funded. This is why new devs will go elsewhere to build their apps. Why come to Hive when they are virtually guaranteed NOT to get any funding to build things!

In the meantime all I am doing is voting on the Return proposal. Nothing will happen of course, they will bleed the platform dry.

Yeah am doing well, we finally have a manager who knows what he is doing, and the 49ers guys are finally doing what they should have done when they took us over! Good to see Leeds going strong

This system must already have a protection system in place why it is not there all this years ????? 💁‍♂️💁‍♂️ , if someone takes the HBD in DHF to do project here on Hive world , or gets permission to take it from there, then that user must agree that if the project doesn't work, you must pay 70% back to the system either on Hive or HBD. 💁‍♂️💁‍♂️💁‍♂️ is it hard to do it ????

You all can get money too easily from DHF and you all are not disciplined and you all can't get a penalty if you don't do your job right or you make illogical mistakes, like a good example with these sick cars. 💁‍♂️💁‍♂️💁‍♂️ since no one can punish, then like with cars, the money is just taken ... The cars are sitting somewhere under the barn and we are empty-handed and no new users have been brought in by cars. , and no one pay anything back. Which is very sick. 💁‍♂️💁‍♂️

I agree with the waste in DAO money for retarded things that cause long term way to much damage with zero benefit.

But i think 3spk and you apps simple needs revenue streams ( more users) and maybe some classic advertisement.

This will bring in good times a lot of money and in bad less ofc. So the management is important.

IMO DAO should fund for maggi deep pools Hive/ HBD, Hive/ BTC, Hive / another stablecoin and so on. Not all at once but that reduces the dependency on exchanges a lot and allows people use Hive as a proxy token to access more pairs (basically what Solana does).

IMO a fundraise ( even if you dont like it) could bring in some cash. Like having a revenue plan and sell a share from that revenue for instant money. Times are bad for this ofc, but also with AI you can leverage a lot of work.

You need to add something on your apps ppl demand and want to watch advertisements or want to pay for it.

Hive has the problem you pay twice for each user ( i say it for years). First time for marketing to get the user, second time to give them the account. Thats why i think with Maggi things could turn around ( and still Soft accounts are needed on main chain to make social better, it could be Pay to play. Instead of pay with RC soft accounts could post and burn hive instead @theycallmedan).

For DAO, i think there needs to be more control mechanism in place like "steps". So a project can be funded in steps. If the first goal works out, the second funding round begins.

That would add a protection layer for waste. Everything else should be really pools and the support of the base chain (no fancy app funding that generates 2 users).

I also think the Inflation from Content itself could be 50% of the current one. Why? It makes no difference. 50% less and 100% higher price is the same for the author and curator in USD but drops the pressure on Inflation.

Hive doesnt need to be deflationary, but reasonable inflation would be more in the low 2%-5% and not 20%+.

Continue printing will destroy longterm incentives holding the coin ( also looks bad from outside tbh).

Since with all political things, nobody feels responsible to do anything, this will show if the social part of hive makes any sense.

HBD needs to get into more hands beyond the base chain, more pairs with stablecoins and easy swaps cross-chain, which generates fees and make it all more sustainable.

The Socialist Idea of hive will fail ( Inflation pays for everything), value needs to be generated beyond that.

No value is like fiat, it loses value in a long run. The good thing is, it can be easy reversed and past actions have close to no impact in the future. So even if we have another 20% more tokens will only shift away power from a few and allow more opinions with stake and power.

A bit offtopic to the post, but those are my opinions around it.

btw the soft accounts with pay to play ( like ETH Wallet like that burns per post or interaction hive) allow scaling and spam fight + value add all at once.

Also adds another layer of privacy to posting ( allows people to submit a post, pay for it and never use the wallet again). Pretty cool IMO
