Maximalists will not take Hive seriously until it becomes painfully obvious that Hive's existence brings value to Bitcoin (and vice versa) due to actual decentralized mechanics. When over 99% of all crypto is a centralized hunk of shit it's easy to see why Maxis would just assume 100% of everything is garbage. Easier than doing the actual work, especially when the vast majority would wrongfully determine that Hive was centralized at first glance anyway regardless of research.
My vision for accomplishing this goal is creating some kind of gambling mechanic on Hive that uses unhackable Bitcoin hashes as the random number generator. I think something like Marbles on Stream would go instantly viral if players could bet actual crypto (HBD) on it. RNG is also an important aspect in the gaming sector to ensure fairness. When Hive provides Bitcoin with actual utility it will be taken seriously. As we can see we've already made the opening connections to the lightning network, which is a good start.

You bring up a good point. The odds are in their favor especially with Ethereums move to PoS. That is now looking like a chain that will implement a lot of KYC. How is that considered crypto?
Interesting idea on the gambling site. I am not familiar with that realm so have to defer to others on insight.
But does some to have logic using Bitcoin hash along with HBD. Interesting concept.
