RE: Killer Apps for Hive (and why not)

in #dev15 days ago

I am convinced it's a lot less about apps and a lot more about selling. Check out my latest Innopay post: not a complex app but it sells Hive. There doesn't need to be a "captain" and a "soldier" - no need for a hierarchical relationship as long as our interests are aligned: giving people reasons to buy Hive.
During Hivefest Starkerz insisted a lot on getting rid of the SELL pressure. Let's see what comes out of it. Personnally, I'm more focused on increasing the BUY side (I feel more comfortable there). But both efforts are worthy

Sort:  
  • I have never spent a single cent on crypto, just my time.
    Therefore, I can not put myself in the shoes of someone who would.
    Nothing would convince me to spend my hard earned (and taxed) money for magic internet coins.
    So... I can't follow, tbh.

  • I like starkerz, but his own proposal is for 500k USD, which is money going straight out of our pool. He's good at marketing and generally a cool dude, but I'd prefer someone, who actually gets their hands dirty and knows how to code at least some.

  • When it comes to system design decisions: OH YES, someone needs to be at the helm.
    ...and I now have the confidence...
    Especially, when I look at HAF and how arkwardly it's designed.
    I have no practical experience and picking up serious programming as late as I have should mean I am at a disadvantage, but I feel like I can skip some of the dogma and old habits. It's 2025 and I can use all the cutting edge stuff.
    While the 'pros' use outdated style, stack and generally outdated ideas.


I have spent money on games and entertainment. Consuming things...
This I can relate to, easily.
I am confident, that I can create enough demand for my services.
...which would benefit the demand for HIVE...

Ach...
We'll see.

Just one more week of 'work' and I am free for a while.
Would still love to talk to someone who gets it.
But it would have to be someone who has tried. Some things you just can't explain, you have to experience it...
