Why Are rewards paid in ETH and not the native token to the project?

Don't you think this is a good thing? I certainly do.. ETH is a very valuable currency and more stable and liquid than any new token that is still becoming established. Ethereum is going to have a long an happy life and will likely outlive most other currencies.
This means the derivative will always be valuable, regardless of the current value of the REAL tokens themselves.

"rewards"  - you mean dividends? Hm.. They ll paid in ETH? I know, that centra also will pay dividends in ETH. Dont know what is the reason for this...

There is no reasonable answer unless you take the line about ETH outliving other cryptos to mean that the native token will die but hey at least you got your reward......Also still trying to figure out how a liquidation event results in the payout/protection implied when the OP speaks of this as a secured token.

People would really talk regarding on dividends on  which is the main concern on here but same as you


What an earth you guys are talking about? Coin that gives ETH dividends dies? You mean it will drop in price? Who cares, more cheap coins that gives dividends for holders. I will be one of the first in the line trying to get it sub ico price if that ever happens.

Wouldnt it be better to have a token that pays dividends in the native token such that it requires a company go out into the secondary market and conduct a repurchase to make the distribution? Isnt that a price supportive value growing event?
I really don't know why people think that paying out dividents in ether is a problem. The value of this coin will rise due to more people investing in it.
People would really talk regarding on dividends on  which is the main concern on here but same as mentioned above if the price would reach on sub-ico then I would definitely buy on this one because I do believe on the potential of this project and as being said the more interest have been putted on this one then we can really expect later on the possible good results.

Well, one advantage of giving dividends with ETH and not in the native token, is that the price will rise, if the token holders get eth, then they won't have RPP tokens to DUMP, reiving dividends is like having an airdrop, people will just sell them at whatever prices will get them money, so as a result, token prices drop, if token holders are paid in eth, they will just dump ethereum XD.

That’s so ridiculous. Why would it result in an automatic dump? Why wouldn’t people hold to receive more dividends over time? Some might dump but why do we assume that every recipient would dump? I mean the assumptions here are wild. Also isn’t it the company’s responsibility to support the value of their token for investors? Investing in your native tokens value growth seems to me a better move. Imho. But maybe I’m just not going to be convinced.

REAL tokens are finite. At some point there would't be any REAL tokens left to pay the dividends to the investors. Sure, you are investing your tokens into the projects but on the same time the team also has to keep them or at least a part of it as you always can sell your property share again if you want. And no one is holding you back to buy new tokes with your earned ETH.

Sorry but again with a finite supply, going into the secondary market to collect tokens to pay a reward increases the value of the token not another token. I don’t care if they pay eth or real, it just speaks to the projects goals of either consistently delivery value to the native token or minimally increasing value to the tokenholders. If you’re okay with a team not maximizing the value of the token you hold, cool that’s your choice as investors. Best of luck here and stay tined for other projects that are tackling the space in different and potentially more attractive ways.
