Hi Hivian's,
I am newbie here. I am briefly aware of the blockchain basics and how it works. It took me less than five minutes to join hive, but after I joined I felt lost & confused.
Since last few days I have been spending time on YouTube ,google, crypto blogs, social platforms and what not, Just to figure out the How Hive works. Initially when I started I was under an assumption that hive is another social media platform where people earn Cryptocurrency. But slowly as I progressed with my hunt for knowledge I could understand there is a lot more to it and that it is not just another traditional social platform. It is a platform that rewards you for every like, comment, & share. In fact not just comment like and share you get rewarded for every social transaction that you make. It is interesting to know that Hive is not run by a CEO or a boss or a censorship board. It is even more interesting to learn that every transaction, every post you make on hive is driven by a blockchain transaction. My content is just mine here, not YouTube, google or Facebook's...
I think it is just a start for me. I can imagine myself in an ocean on board a boat full of books that tells me on where to go and how to go. I have been reading these books ( newbie guides) and here is what I understood...
Hive is my own social media house for which I have access to using Hive Keychain. Each key lets me access different tools of my account. So even if any one of the key is stolen they may have limited privileges. So, out of the 4 keys I mainly give posting key to access the apps without providing wallets access to the apps.
So, once I am ready, I can create a new post. But I need resource credits. Resource credits can be assumed as computing power / resources that one needs to make transactions on Hive. And this involves real money. Now, a newbie like me does not have resource credits. How do i get that. Well I need Hive power. I got RC's gifted by @giftgiver.So I did not have to buy Hive Power.
Now that I am onboarded and have HP and RC, I can drive the boat. Well, there is a lot more to learn...
So I found this savior guide the best guide ever "Hive : A complete Guide for Beginners". I found this on https://jryze.me/hive/
I have come this far reading this guide. So, I can imagine myself sailing a boat, I have picked up guide necessary to keep me afloat and at some point in my learning to sail waves may wash me over the bow and I will find myself with wet feet , I have to find a bailer (Hivian's) to bail me out of the water. sometimes bailing carefully, sometimes baling wildly, sometimes baling desperately I have to manage to get rid of the water.
You quite did an amazing research and got Nice answers
