A non-Hive approach to promoting new features built on Hive should be considered when we are talking about features that directly improve the user experience on other chains.
A good example would be the #VSC that will allow anyone to send and receive #Bitcoin with 0 fees, near instantly, in a completely decentralized manner providing a superior alternative to #LightningNetwork.
On top of internal Hive promotion that is a given, a new approach should be added on top, that is not focused on promoting Hive, rather promoting inside the paradigm of the existing Bitcoin ecosystem as a Bitcoin feature.
The Hive utilization being in the backend.
This would work to sidestep the possible rejection of tech due to shallow and tribal attitude present in the Bitcoin (and other) communities that will undoubtedly be present in a nontrivial amount.
Branding and promotion should reflect this approach.
To put it more bluntly, we should literally just outright claim features like this are revolutionizing Bitcoin use. Not present it as a Hive feature outwards but rather a Bitcoin feature.
So we can come up to any non-maxi Bitcoiner and show what this tech is doing, not for Hive, but rather for Bitcoin.
Youre not promoting yourself... youre making features for "them".

What do you think of a marketing method of promoting the Hive or any other front end of Hive through Radio ads? Do you think it'd work? Like bring in some new users for say splinterlands, inleo or some other project?
Youre going very classical with that. :D
You would have a problem with presenting whatever onboard page via voice only. Ive honestly never thought about doing something like that so its hard to say.
Podcast ads could be potentially a good idea. Ypu can target each audience with a different ad. To be frank we have the biggest creative agency with endless resources for growth. We have actors dancers producers film makers directors. We can produce an audible ad with link in shownotes for the audience of any type of podcast.
Radio ads are highly effective, but are bound to regions countries etc. You would have to spend a massive amount of money to play the ads. Depending of audience size of the stations the prizes vary as well. The ad would have to be short so it does not cost a fortune to play it. I can totally record the ad if someone provides a script I can do german english and hungarian. But I am sure we have better radio voices than mine on here.
The approach is not bad since millions of people listen to the radio still.
Targeted ads in crypto podcasts with a large audience would be a good idea. And every hive podcaster could run the ad for a small amount of HBD in their own podcasts. I think there is no bad ideas when it comes to promoting hive. Hive is something different for everyone.
Sorry for the long comment here is a potato.
Yes, applications and real use cases are the things to promote. Not just post here and make money unless hive starts getting some ad revenue or something. (Which I feel is more for layer 2's while hive would eventually cycle out to be a resource credit but that time is not yet here)
Its also important how you go about promoting it. Thats whats different in the approach im proposing here.
I like this #narrative and I also like the radio ads idea of Devpress.
I am still without checkmark on X but I will try to scream out of my shadowban. I am not really following any BTC maxis non maxis...
Not many are. Im not either. We really need to start researching the wider market.
Aside from the promotion, I feel there should be something that can make newbies to be motivated cos I realized that some newbies tend to give up after a while
I also believe that HIVE needs promotion.
Legally what backlash or implications would this carry?
It would open doors, as many are wary of stepping straight into Bitcoin who have not been involved in crypto for more than five years. All the ups/downs problems would have to be discussed with witnesses.

Upvoted 👌 (Mana: 31/61) Liquid rewards.
None. Im not claiming or implying to hide the Hive relation but rather simply on the promotional approach to things heavily favor Bitcoin instead of Hive.
Interesting concept, always reflect back to problems encountered, people appear to love going to court over much of late (or little).
Imagine if you could get wrapped btc via vsc for posting on hive. BTC people would go ape.

Podcast advertisements may be a wise decision. You can use a distinct advertisement to target each audience. To be quite honest, we have the largest creative agency with limitless potential for expansion. We have actors, dancers, filmmakers, producers, and directors. We are able to create an audio advertisement for any kind of podcast, complete with a link in the show notes.
Please don't forget that your points on zealy can still be achieved ,there is a provision for that to meet up .
Come-on let's zealy
good idea
This is the main reason behind my study about Nostr, BlueSocial and others places where Bitcoin is the main topic. It can be a way to promote the Bitcoin Wrapping on Hive.
I also have in mind the possibility of paid promotion within Twitter where most of the crypto and bitcoin related influencers are.
Belief is very important the way we all believe in this platform in time we will see it will be famous all over the world and we have to show our love here and this. must be communicated to other people.
