Time flys, it's 2022. You just so happen to be a random web2 content creator that hears about Hive. You go to a front end that gives you two options, Join or create a community. If you click create it takes you down a path to easily creating your own token and setting up your ad system. With just a few clicks you have your own .com domain attached to your immutable open-source site and community.
This is what we are looking for on #hive. Plug and play solutions that can bring in external money.
I don't see a massive need for individual tokens as that would get very messy but having a community with built in ad revenue proportional to it's activity and external reach would be huge for creators. Tokens for larger communities.
With the right analytics there could be simple ways to share ad revenue with your users but tokens could do the job as well. Lots of ways to improve going forward.
At the moment there is no incentive to share content externally as it has no effect without ads and the 7 day window disincentives creating lasting content. If there was a bot that payed out users based on the views/value that each post brought in to the front end continuously that would be a better reason to create content for the long term.
Groups like @leofinance are leading the way right now but being able to monatise communities will be the fastest and simplest way to push the hive price and push expansion organically.
I could start an Irish community. Grow it to 1000 members and share the best content to external Irish groups who would be interested. Bring in views/ad revenue. Get that paid to my community account and share it out to the users who created the posts through a token or payout bot.I can't build a website to do this myself as i don't have the skills but if it was as easy as signing up to hive and picking the right settings, who wouldn't want to make their own space on the internet without fear of the corporation clamping down at any stage if they didn't like what was being posted.
In time there could be a way to use a phone app like @dapplr and set it to show that communities posts exclusively which would give every community the chance to have their own app without building one. The freespeech Ireland app. Real opinions, no censorship.
