Some incredible metrics when putting it side-by-side with those DApps on Ethereum. It's pretty exciting to see HIVE garner as much attention as it did, even though we're just a few months old. Certainly, the time is nigh to get more users into the platform, to let them start engaging and earning.
I see some Hivers including yourself having made incredible progress with on-boarding new users, and getting them used to the platform. I do think the next step up to attract new folk would be a good app. More people are spending their time on phones, and having a good app would do well to get them excited about Hive.
I do wonder what's going to be the next trending Hive-based DApp. I see some games making the rounds, like Exode or DCity. We've also got Dapplr in the works with a Hive mobile app in the pipeline. Hmm...
We still need more though... something that really gets the normies excited.
True! We're seeing a new Selfies Community here, and it's growing fast within the last few hours alone. Maybe some sort of Instagram built on Hive (did Appics made their move from Steemit? ), that should get more common folk excited for it.
Something to do with content consumption is going to be a huge part of it's future growth, I feel. Gaming, streaming, video sharing, pictures - it's that simple way to just chug new content by the bucket loads that's going to get Hive on the radar.
