I think those who start on a chain like Hive will be living it. That is when it becomes a part of ones life.

Maybe, I am a poor communicator. Something is missing. Either in their system or in the way I communicate things. Something has to happen for them to find Hive convincing and give it a serious look.
That is true. And to me that is the social media angle. That is what most can identify with. The same is true with media. We are seeing decentralization and the elimination of intermediaries. This is a big step forward.
1/ When I talk to them about Hive, they usually connect it to some of their negative experiences in the past.
2/ They have no problem with the social media aspect of Hive but the idea of incentivizing online activity, I think that is something they struggle to accept.
3/ Most questions I encounter are either related to the legality of the incentive mechanism or the difficulty of understanding the technology side of it.
But just like the experience of many, I think it will take time. My wife and my two sons are already on-chain and more or less five of my friends, but they remain inactive.
That is typical too. They join and do nothing. That is where it becomes a numbers game. 90% will hang back and get involved later.
It is the early adopters who make the difference.
1/ Maybe, once they see the money not only in the electronic wallet but how I am able to cash out, I guess, that's one story they will find more convincing.
2/ However, my problem with that is that it will take me some time to show such a result. I also don't want them to have an idea of Hive as a short-term cash cow.
