Yeah there's definitely a stigma involved in ref links which is why it's important for the onboarder to mention that hey "I know this is a ref link but it's just so I can track you easier and others know that I brought you in, I'm not going to profit off of you in a way where I get a cut off of what you buy or spend on Hive and at no point are you pressured into buying any".
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
if by signing up under a power user, you got a better chance of getting reblogged and upvoted by them and their network of whales, that could be a reason enough to STAY in their lineup, even if youre paying them a very high up to 50% beneficiary reward on all your post rewards, and who cares? Most new users are used to $0 rewards so taking a 50% cut in order to create profit for the person above you in the hierarchy is worth it because they can concentrate all foreward firepower on that star destroyer and build a new mobile app or front end etc
or maybe someone saves up enough referal beneficiary rewards by signing up enough users to actually build a twitter or discord hivebot that signs up users much faster
maybe then we can all have a better experience and a chance to signup our own ML style referal tree
and this is hive, theres 0 risk in using a system like this inside hive, we arent going around buying acai berry juice and getting stuck with it, we are just posting on social media and re arranging monopoly points that we may or may not even get. What we are really doing is funding the most efficient path for these tokens, so those who handle the most hive the best and create the most value from having that hive, can get that hive. I really see referals as an opportunity to onboard not just hoardes of new users, but SALES people , you know, the types who think they are tai lopez or grant cardone.
I feel like that is all Hive is missing, salespeople. a referal system could really help with that so we have people trying to build communities, dapps, mobile apps and hive front end bots that just sign up as many new users as possible, maybe making it so easy that they can signup to hive and make posts entirely from inside discord, redirecting all those beneficiary rewards to the referrer. That could be like a gold rush. SO manmy discords out theer full of hungry crypto users who would 100% sit there trying to earn enough HIVE lets say, over @tipcc which requyires no account on hive, to begin collecting hive in your second layer wallet, then use that hive to create your account when youre ready and have 3 hive, and then start posting from discord to hive, through a bot. that would be teh best way to get millions of new users into a referal chain on the hive blockchain, the bot would be required as the middleman, maybe add chat gpt in there to allow ai to really help do tech support too...
