Awesome to have you!
How did you find the process of getting HIVE and understanding what powering up meant?
Always interesting to get the perspective of people already in crypto, but not Hive.

Yah, i am quite surprised that quite a handful of hive people are isolated in hive blockchain despite been around of a year or 2. They do not much knowledge like even defi services like "staking"/"lending"/"swapping" or "nft-ing". But interestingly, as hive blockchain grew, now the hive community is not longer that foreign to nfts as we have hf nft and hive punk already. We also start to see more people trying out beeswap as they are airdropping bxt tokens and provide high apy for lp providers.
I remember when I explore hive, i am quite surprised by how different hive works as compare to other blockchain. Eth is charging $25/transaction and sometime i am paying like $200-400/transaction to "over-take" others. So you can see how many people are hungry for altnerative blockchain who offer lower fee and more transaction per sec. So that is why bsc+solana+polygon etc. all went up like crazy this year as they offer layer 1 and 2 solution with fees only at $1 or less and allows more transaction to take place. Some old projects like neo tried to use dual token system, so you hold the native tokens to have airdrop of token 2, and when you transact, you use token 2 as transaction fee. In this way, you dont need to touch your native tokens at all no matter how many transaction you made. Yet, fast forward to years later, these dual token projects had failed to take off.
So you can imagine how happy I am when I realise the "gas-less" hive ecosystem.
Actually there is a project that I personally felt quite similar to hive and that is EOS. EOS is like the reverse of hive. Instead of hive users responsible for their own activity volume, EOS wants the dev to hold the EOS token to allow the incoming activity volume. EOS ended up also fail to take off.
Scaling is also an issue to blockchain. So you can sense, how happy I am when I see Hive seem to be able to tackle both of these issues.
Here's a fun fact: EOS was made by Dan Larimer who made Bitshares and Steem. Hive is a fork of Steem that improved so many extra stuff. You could say EOS is Hive + Smart Contracts & some changes.
