Hive has proven to be the best ecosystem in the world, since I have joined hive I have been reading testimonies about how hive has been saving people from financial problems.

I'm a living witness to these outstanding testimonies. Since I joined, I have consistently published in this ecosystem in the hopes of getting more exposure as long as I keep doing so.
I firmly believe that consistency and hard work are two major stepping stones to financial freedom.

I think the problem some newbies have is that they think hive is a get-rich-quick scheme.
Some people plan to become wealthy within a few months of their hive journey.

After having a consistent few weeks on hive, some would give up as a result of low payment and their expectations were not being met.
They were unaware that Hive is not a get-rich-quick platform and that to benefit from the community, you must put effort into the ecosystem and be consistent in your participation.

I adore the hive ecosystem's concept because it requires effort and was developed with a long-term goal.
Several social blogging systems have failed, due to their short-term ideologies
Yet, hive will endure over time and continue to support many people in their efforts to live comfortably.

Hive Holdling is better than cash holding

Having your money saved in hive is better than having it in your local banks because one day your local banks will fail and you might be left stranded.
I will share my experience below:

For over one month now in my country ( Nigeria), we have been having cash scarcity due to the new currency design and the CBN ( central bank of Nigeria ) policy.
Internet banking is the only method of payment used throughout the nation.

For over one month now in my country ( Nigeria), we have been having cash scarcity due to the new currency design and the CBN ( central bank of Nigeria ) policy.
Internet banking is the only method of payment used throughout the nation.

Meanwhile, some activities involved cash. For example, local businesswomen have been making use of cash for their businesses for a long time. A lot of them do not have account numbers.

Some communities do not have banking halls. They travel to the nearest community to collect cash.
Some communities make use of POS ( Point Of Sale) vendors to collect their cash, instead of going to the baking hall. But you have to pay charges for every transaction.

Taxi drivers, commercial buses and motorcyclists depend on cash for their services.
In construction firms, casual workers collect their money in cash daily.
The majority of those who engage in labour activities lack account numbers. They are accustomed to getting paid when their task is complete.

I work for a construction company, and as the site engineer, I used cash to pay temporary employees. Few people have account numbers, but the majority do not. All of our temporary employees left as the financial shortage worsened.

The POS vendors are charging a ridiculous fee for transaction services, therefore everyone was affected. The banking hall was always full to the brim.
Therefore we couldn't have any Labourers on site to work.

I was so affected because I didn't have any site bonuses and allowances. Whenever there are no activities on site, my employer won't pay any allowance.
As a result of this, only the salary was transferred to the employer's account.
But the salary it's not enough for a family man, so I have other offline businesses that support my family.

But the cashless policy also affects my other business, so I was down financially. I was able to withdraw some of my savings from my local banks, but the withdrawal limit was so little that it wasn't enough for me daily.

  Hive Saved Me

Thank God for the hive ecosystem, I have some HBD in my wallet, I wanted to stake some and keep some for emergency needs. Boom it works out during this period, I was so happy because I have a backup plan.

I traded my HBD to hive, and I transferred to Binance. This is the major advantage of cryptocurrency, tokens are being transferred and received instantly.
I make use of the P2P feature, and I got paid in less than 5 minutes.

I conducted my transaction using online banking, and the hive ecosystem saved me. assuming I didn't have a backup strategy. Like my pals, who have all of their money in the local banks, I would have been left stranded.

In conclusion, hive is a platform that may come to your rescue whenever you need help. Simply make sure you publish quality content in the ecosystem consistently, interact with other authors, stake your hive for the future, and have some HBD in savings for emergencies.
