leasing will port to Hive in the next week, Gina will do so soon after. We will have a huge saving from disabling MinnowBooster, it was a monolithic ruby on rails stack which cost us the bulk of our Heroku monthly cost. We will see some savings in the short term, also from disabling tokenbb we see more cost savings as it was only making us like 100 Steem per month in bene rewards. Focussing on core apps and monetising them is the best strategy, Ginabot is a good one to monetize in future.

cool that is really good to hear. Will there then be future payouts both in steem AND in hive?? As I understand it dlease will be available on both or will you just pick a token for the rewards?

Other idea might be to buy back buildteam with the profits from both and pay out in that token. it would give it some extra value

Paying out in BuildTeam is an interesting idea, dual payouts are also on our mind but we need for there to be stable libraries on hive first, and people want ginabot and dlease ported across. We will look at how to handle Hive payouts when things are less hectic.

Just had a thought that liquidity could be an issue for buying back scenario, if no one is selling could be an issue or if prices are high wont get much BUILDTEAM to distribute.

well, now you are paying out the buildteam rewards in steem

just take the steem and hive and buy buildteam off the market, that will raise the token price of buildteam. The liquidity might be an issue but it will drive up the buildteam price for sure. With higher prices there are always people that sell.
As far as I know you use buildteam to pay your devs. If they see a rise in price they might sell easier??
