top 200 on market caps. Been falling steadily though which is pretty much what we all figured after a pump like that but I'm curious when we will hold new ground. What's important though at least to me is to keep building those stacks. Imagine when you votes worth $10+ and when you apply it to all the other tribes, communities and the countless other platforms that will run on top of hive. 💪
IDK about you but I'm also tired of platforms leaking all of my data and information such as Facebook and a most recent Twitch!
It's so annoying, and then what's worse....People continue to go back and ignore the blockchain stuff.
I don't get it, but alas...Like you said...Building stacks! Everyday!!
Yep, what it's going to take is for communities and people to come over instead of each individual. What keeps people around are other people they enjoy interacting with.
People ignore the blockchain stuff because it's too complicated for the average person. To sign up on Twitter takes 30 seconds and an average IQ.
To sign up on Hive (as far as I'm aware) can take days or even weeks, plus there are all these offshoot sites which only make sense if you have been part of the blockchain for ages or you have someone meticulously explain it all to you. To the average user a site like PeakD simply doesn't make sense.
If I sign up for Twitter I don't go to another site in order to post on it. So I think that's the main sticking point. Also Hive is invisible on Google, I just tried typing in Hive and Hive login using a browser I never use, just to see what happens. Hive isn't even on the first page! Add to that that there's another blockchain company called Hive and you start to understand the utter confusion of the average non-crypto user.
Perhaps in the future someone will work out how to build a site that doesn't take too much cognitive load to join, because the points you make are all valid, it's just nobody is aware of crypto based social media.

100% agree.
I think it's a lot easier than it was, but most definitely not the easiest thing to do.
All my offchain friends I try to bring over, that's the first thing they don't understand...Why do I have to sign up to Hive, in order to use something like PeakD.
I think it's a huge point, that hopefully devs can focus on going forward and make it a priority!
