I decided that it would be fun to create accounts. My HP was at 2600; so I borrowed another $100 last week and bought enough HIVE to bring my account to 3025 ( 5.87MM Resource Credits).
A funny thing happened yesterday: Apparently a pod of whales had a feeding frenzy and they drove the cost of claiming accounts to 13 MM; So I had to wait a day to start claiming accounts.
Apparently, I can claim an account every five days. I would like to have a half dozen accounts claims on hand. That way I could hold a class on using HIVE or give free accounts as part of the presentation.
Personally, I think the free account is kind of silly. It only costs 3 hive to create and account. The price is under a dollar. But people seem to like free things. So, I will enjoy having some free accounts to give out ... even if the monetary value is low.
Speaking of meetings. I would love to host or attend a meeting about free market health care reform. If anyone was interested in such a meeting, I will have some "free" HIVE accounts to hand out.
I created the account using this HiveSigner line:
https://hivesigner.com/sign/claim_account?creator=
This is the transaction:

I guess the next challenge is figuring out how to actually create accounts. I suspect I can do it with Hive Invite
Hi there, you can request free hive accounts on the @hivemexico website at http://hivemx.herokuapp.com/solicitar-cuenta 😀
You can also claim accounts tickets using your RC for free at
http://hivemx.herokuapp.com/tickets (enter your posting key, then claim accounts with your active key, as always, our website don't store any information).Or claim here: https://hivesigner.com/sign/claim_account with your active key.
It's in spanish but you can translate. Or just contact me on discord or here to create accounts for you. ritch#6321 (discord)
Cheers!
Thanks for the information. I like that @HiveMexico allows people to request a temporary 15 HP delegation when they request a new account. That is a sweet touch. Hopefully they actively engage with the accounts they create.
I believe that the goal of the discount claim system is to create a huge number of entry points for the system.
Blocktrades shows that HiveMexico has 2 pending accounts. Some of the whales (like tipu and esteemap) have thousands. Blocktrades has 72,830 claims. Why do they need this many?
I think that onboarding is best done on an individual basis. The big corporate accounts leave people feeling cold. That's why I decided to bite the bullet and start collecting the tokens on my own.
It's great you help people. The account with the tickets of Hivemexico is @alebrijes (144 claims), not to much as the whales like appreciator or blocktrades 😀 The whales like blocktrades are selling accounts (it was a business).
Yep, we delegate from 15 to 100 HP to some active users.
