To be honest, most days, I hate cryptocurrency.
I arrived many moons ago, as a content creator. Four years later and the consumer base only shrunk. Not good for business, my friend.

Yep.. Noticed that trend as well. Started to branch out away from graphene based blockchains here in the past few weeks. Needs to be done, the pool here isn't large enough to support most businesses anymore.
Right. Because no focus is placed on consumers driving up the market value. Why create a product and refuse to sell it? Content generates revenue everywhere else, because that content is placed in front of a paying audience. People spend all day on devices, consuming shit and earning nothing for their time. They'll gladly do it for free and hundreds of millions will gladly spend their disposable income on it. They've burned through billions of dollars and never once got a return on that. This business model here is incredibly disruptive in the entertainment industry and I feel like I'm crazy now for even noticing, while so many other seemingly don't.
Blah... calm down nonames....
Yeah.. You're basically right on the money there imo.
You're not crazy for noticing the trend, in fact you're more sane than the ones not noticing this.
Can't even watch a livestream these days without seeing money pour in from consumers. Imagine all that getting pumped into Hive, daily.
Then I see the traditional oldschool approach being applauded. Consumer money pouring in ETH so artists can get paid top dollar NFT style. Here's the kicker though. With no consumer incentives to hold, all that is is money in the door, in order to pay someone, which means that money goes right back out the door. So they basically break even. That model does not create steady consumer driven demand for the token.
yeah, no shit eh? Never thought about it that way.
HIVE might have it's day in the limelight.. It may not. Love the community here but I think the lack of leadership and having a figurehead of sorts is a detriment to the project as a whole.. We've got blocktrades I guess as sort of the lead guy of things but he's not really the public type figure.
And you're probably right about that. Even sitting here presenting some ideas, as I did in the post, I just end up feeling like I'm talking to a wall. Nobody wants to come work out a plan, set a direction, make it clear. I don't have any way of connecting to folks who could help. It's been a frustrating ride. I don't like feeling small and I fucking hate stagnation. I didn't write this for goddamn rewards...
The thing is any attempt to become a figure head or the face of hive is met with wild opposition with those pressing that saying "It's run by the community" which is true.. However the community seems to run around like a chicken with it's head cut off.. there is development happening behind the scene.. Sure! But lets be honest.. Most users do not give a flying fuck about API nodes as long as they work.
The current plan is optimizing the back end stuff so it's easier for developers to build on it looks like.. However the end user really receives no benefit to this and it certainly isn't going to get people through the door and spending money. Even when apps are developed on the platform it will be hit or miss if it does anything to bring in capital.
And now you see.
