Thank you for your comment and questions. Please excuse us for the lateness of the response, for some reason we missed this thread.

We understand your concern about "growing another project for the sake of one's own growth". However, we believe that by delegating to the Chess Brothers team, delegators acquire several benefits that make the option attractive and therefore considered an investment. For example:

-They can receive a passive income, which is even more desirable for those hivers who are not actively voting on their own and run the risk of their VP going to waste.
-They can avoid having unnecessary losses due to sub-optimization, as we strive to maintain optimal curation.
-They can do this as a complement to the curation trails and their own venture.
-They can perceive liquid rewards without the need to powerdown their own accounts.
-They can feel as patrons of the project by supporting our work with their delegation.
-They can promote their image by being recognized as investors in our reports and spaces.
-They can opt for other benefits that we have in mind to offer (this is just the 1.0 plan, as you can read in the post).

Our team strives to deliver valuable content and engage with the community, and we believe the "Master Investor" plan can help us achieve those goals while providing benefits to our delegators.

We do not see this plan as a way of "begging" for delegations. We believe that does not adequately represent what we do and offer. We are a team of responsible professionals and we believe we have demonstrated that. We have invested a lot of resources in this project, not just in terms of HP. We can help you learn more about it if you wish.

We see this plan as a mutually beneficial opportunity for investors to get rewards and support a growing project. We understand that everyone's investment strategies and goals are different, and we respect your decision not to delegate.

Thank you again for your feedback, and please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.
