A 70 rep account should have a mimimum of 10k hp.
Uhm, well... but that's already starting to sound like some sort of non-Cartesian mathematics or algebra.
Giving hive to dumpers and buying it up cheap appears to be how 'they' intend to insure that hive doesn't succeed.
By voting rewards to those that dump, those that are buying get cheaper hive and centralize hive power to the point that nobody outside will buy in.
Eventually accumulating enough to push the price near zero all at once.
Ah, however these statements actually does sound like a much more logical mathematics. LoL
