As for me, I'd like to know how I can earn profit in a short term too. Will there be any dividends for holders?
Now many projects use dividend system for holders that they will not sell their tokens.
For every project it is very important to have a developed community and a lot of users. A divided system is a good way for it.
People must to use the coin very active that price on the coin will grow. That is why it is important to have a big community.
To grow up the price of the token people must buy it. The usage of it is not a necessary at all. You just need to create some hype.
I don't think it is so. Token usage is very important, because it determines token's popularity. Remember XRP and a hype around its usage?
I didn't say it wasn't important. It is. But it is not the only way to make some hype, but it is a real way to support strong interest from the community.
Moreover, it is a gret bonus when token has developed infrastructure. It is the best way to attract investors.
