The Retards Won't Come

in WallStreetBets4 years ago (edited)

Don't persecute me for this but, IMO i don't think the retards will flock over in droves to Hive or this group. This type of platform is not their style. Hive can be a vexing and complicated chore the regular cryptocurrency enthusiasts let alone the retard generation on WSB.

They're more concerned about stock. I got banned in the group for making comments mentioning about cryptocurrency. Plus the only crypto they might care about is Doge.

The process of settling up an Hive account is complicated. To much do, and don't you have to pay to get an account now. People like simplicity and instant gratification. Reddit offers simplicity. All you have to do is join a subreddit and make your post. Here one needs to buy bitcoin, go an exchange and buy Hive. Start an account, transfer Hive etc etc. To many task for the casual redditor. Plus most don't even know how to purchase cryptocurrency apart from Robinhood. Which they don't realize that they can't transfer from Robinhood.

Just my take on things, but i do hope it works out. Before reading about this initiative the thought did cross my mind. I was close to sending the WSB Twitter account a tweet suggesting the migration.

We actually got the attention of legit WSB mods. They couldn't sign up. there were not enough accounts in the signup.hive service they selected. even though this is a fully functioning tokenized platform that serves all their needs, they decided then and there at sign up that hive is not ready to scale. super frustrating. we are no longer in slow growth phase. we are in explosive growth phase. we need a pool of millions of accounts and a way for the community to vote for their distribution to a sign up system on demand. times have changed and the hive outlook to slow growth has not changed with these times. censorship is rife and we are ideally positioned to get first mover web3 solution to this. unfortunately, atm our sign up solutions are woefully inadequate for a large community to decide to use us. the problem is, you fix this, you get first mover advantage, even if your tech doesn't actually work. hive knows about this problem for 4 years now. we are ripe for losing several HUGE communities at any time and further slipping behind other chains how are quickly solving these on boarding issues.

Damn, that sucks, but honestly I'm not surprised. That's how people are these days. They know that UX is everything and if the UX is not on point they'll stop right there. I've been saying this for years...

It’s not even ux. gives account system is not set up to onboard a 6 million user community. Might be set up to take a sudden onboard of 5k ppl at best. Woefully short of where it needs to be at this point

This matter plus others needs to be addressed if Hive wants to be ahead of the game. Why leave a perfectly working situation for one with issues.

it's kinda sad. I wish HIVE devs would just implement a DeFi like pool for account tokens, so people would delegate tokens/HP to

If you ask me, we're extremely early with HIVE.

Definitely very early

The complexity you're referring to is one of the reasons I made this. So that instead of them having to go through the process of making a Community which is complex relative to creating something like a subreddit, I made one for them that I can just give to a mod if the find their way here. It's a long shot, but it doesn't hurt to try.

So you created this community? All they would have to do is individually sign up to Hive and join the group. Then you can just hand over the control to the mods. Nice.

I don't think all r/wallstreetbets subscribers would signup to Hive on the same day and at the same time, so I'm pretty sure https://hiveonboard.com could take care of onboarding then easily (and that's free, and all they need to do is validate a phone number, not much different than an email validation Reddit would require).

This extremely stupid and irresponsible post here. Don't you have imagination at all?

What part of this post is irresponsible? This post reflects on the reasons and the obstacles that would prevent WSB reddit group followers from joining the Hive community. So how again is it irresponsible?

Brah you are not political correct, or welcome here! Nope we don’t members like you, bring nothing of substance to the table - obviously you cannot read basic rules. This is not for crypto... so gtfo get outta here, and remember to not let the door slam your ass on the way out! Haha!😆
p.s. the only retard here is you i guess, u are what u call others!

Brah clearly you know nothing about the WSB community on Reddit. They all call themselves retards. If you don't like me that's fine, don't speak for others.
