Very nice to see how this ended up @joshman, as I recall reading your RFP and liked the idea. Looks like @armandosodano did a very nice job of delivering!
"What about you? Have you considered purchasing art from one of your favorite artists on HIVE?"
Yes, I have done this. Twice. Very early on, in my "journey" through this remarkable "virtual world," with someone in Japan - @skyleap. Then more recently with someone in Malaysia - @zord189. Both were very "mutually beneficial" transactions. And both are still active on our Hive blockchain. Is there a link between the success of their "business proposition" and their continued presence "in here"?
I would imagine so!
Hopefully, your post will encourage many others to give this idea a try. Just one of the many ways we can all work together to encourage each other.
Glad to see you've enjoyed a similar experience!
