RE: Why wouldn't someone join Hive?

in OCD4 years ago

I think there are plenty of incentives, but perhaps most people are yet to understand them. For example, censorship resistance and the ability to buy a subscription for lifetime membership and value. It isn't obvious at first though.

Sort:  

Removing HBI which it basically is on hold for new accounts right now. I saw a comment on discord and they have 25 HBI and single figures Hive yet they are being down voted. Not great as this was our building tool for new accounts.

Hive basic income?

Yes Hive Basic Income. Down voting anyone who basically uses it.This was the new accounts tool for growth as many were given out as prizes. I know I used to give the odd ones out as it does help.

Well maybe all of these things must appear first up so that it can inspire some confidence methinks!
Many people are nervous and may I say even doubtful at their first attempt and the "scam" thought is uppermost in their minds!

Yep, this is why I think applications are the way, as they offer narrow incentives (play and win at a game - earn some points) while introducing people to the ecosystem a step at a time (take those points, transfer, exchange, spend)

Yeah, and a good idea for a start.
Just as they have the free coding education projects for children.
Very basic at first, but at the end of only a 2 week period, graduates can build their own games.
Hive should follow the same example for new entrants and we could even fit a bit of coding education in towards the end of the welcoming project, curriculum!

I think that once /if things get going, all kinds of groups will leverage the environment to build their experiences. Lots of opportunities for education.

Looking forward is all that we can do my friend!

... censorship resistance ...

Are you serious? After the outragous manipulation of the blockchain during the resynced fork do you really trust the V.22.2 Cabal with securing your data? Just the way they have walked away from loyal supporters to their many dApps on STEEM goes to show you that users mean nothing but more token grinding to the V.22.2 Cabal.

Are you on the wrong chain?

Are you on the wrong chain?

Powering down on both chains and shifting HIVE and STEEM to XMR and BTC respectively. Like to call it curating my way out the door. 😎

different chain, same problems.
