I would be onboard with that but we dont have the tech yet in place for it. HE isnt the best of solutions.

Need to be careful with that. The planets need the universe.

Thousands of tokenized communities springing up means potentially thousands could also flop. If there's nothing universal holding it up, there's nothing to fall back on if the community is a flop, and you lose all those people. Think about any failed Hive project, maybe a game. All the communities provided a few people interested in that game. Game fails, those people were not stuck on an island, and could still find other projects to be interested in as well as other communities yadda yadda yadda. The base layer or foundation is the glue. If a planet explodes, the pieces can still come together to form another one.

People able to support communities with a universal solution also gives people the ability to try before they buy. Could easily build a tokenized community around one individual and what they offer. It's madness to think a consumer would buy into each and every individual or topic that interests them.

It's also very important to find ways to leverage spillover. If someone comes along, attracted to X community, they also need to be exposed to the existence of Y. Similar to how a shopper goes to the store for milk and comes home with milk, three candy bars, and a magazine.

Hive is the "everyone token" and tokenized communities would require a plug and play system with a specific individual in mind. That might sound crazy to some,

This doesn't sound crazy to me. I wrote about it several years ago. Been talking about things similar to the point where I don't even like talking about it anymore.

Well, if they came here for that individual community and it fails, they leave, we didnt really lose anything. If anything, some will stick around most likely and look for something else on Hive if they end up liking the tokenization factor.

True. They could pick a few. Frontends could ask, or a AI helper tool could offer them a few based on questions answered. Preferences.

Im hoping for a positive panic that moves our devs into preparing for the bull season.

Provided the connections are clear, there's a chance they stick around, yes.

In practice I've already seen accounts using Actfit or whatever completely unaware of all this shit we're doing right now. Limiting exposure to everything else. Same with Splinterlands players. Unaware of the other Hive products.

Missed opportunities. Hive.io site helped improve things but with thousands more, all the consumer really sees are thousands of logos that could mean anything.

Thousands of communities; that's millions of potential consumers. They all need a bit of HP and it's wise to find ways to encourage them to have a bit more. I cringe when I hear folks talk about stripping the base layer because you're throwing one the best opportunities to decentralize out the door.

And if that panic you mention turns into thousands of tokenized communities that each have a token for this, token for that, token for governance; you've taken the initial reason why the consumer came in the first place away, and turned their experience into something that isn't even remotely close to being, interesting, in general.
