Excellent take, Brian. Hive is so much more than just a simple blockchain...it's a decentralized, distributed, globally-accessible database of information that no one can censor. That, on its own, makes it a powerful tool to give power back to the powerless masses who willingly and naively signed over their control to those centralized megalithic multinational corporations many years ago.
Hive is freedom of speech and community all-in-one.
Hive is Love, man.
