RE: Youtube VS Hive : Here's What I Learned

in OCD2 years ago

Yeah! I mean those with money definitely have a good start there and even here. Although looking back, I don't think youtube would be big if not because the people who believed in the platform and the content creators who literally do something out of their passion. Do they know they'd get rewarded like this today? according to history of monetization, they only launched youtube partner program back in 2007 while the platform itself existed since 2005 and they were focusing on growing their user and rolling out it globally. This is also another great insight to their business and when comparing to hive, we definitely have some work to do if we want it to be something and not just niche place.
