Introduction to Hive and the Best of Crypto

[airlvis]

Hello friends and members of Hive Community, it's my great pleasure to join you here. I am Elvis Nwodu. I am a Nigerian and I currently reside in Lagos state. I can speak Igbo, Yoruba, English and the Nigerian Pidgin. I am an Educator, a Montessorian, a Realtor and a car seller. I can multi-task and get the job done for you as quickly as possible. I have a dedicated Instagram handle for my realtor adverts and car sales. In Nigeria the cost of existence keeps spiraling up every day. It becomes imperative that everyone has to do several things as possible at a time in other to be able to meet up with the rising costs of the billing system here.

** How I came to know about Hive**

I heard about #hive first time through a friend @beauty197, l remember that she was very enthusiastic about Hive Dapp and overtime we have a series of discussions about the hive community which really got my interest and also made me to ensure that I will also try my best to explore the opportunities here. When I tried signing up on the platform for the first time l had a hard time but through her patience and explanations l was able to come through with this. And finally I am here today with her help and that of @misterfabb who also sent me a series of messages detailing the essence of this platform. I came to understand that It's not an instant cash out scheme.

** The Best of Crypto**

It's a blogging platform that pays you for your creativity.

You work hard to make creative posts and earn votes. Those votes are received as a crypto currency known as 'Hive'. You can always sell it on any crypto trading platform or you can power up your Hive to increase the density of your account and do more. On the other hand, you can power up your hive, and store them in a place where they work for you and earn more hive for you.

It's just like trading. When hive is powered up, it's called 'Hive power'.

The amount of votes you receive, your chances of getting higher attention from the big fishes of the site, and the weight of hive people receive from your own vote is all dependent on the amount of hive power you have.

I am well convinced that this is a good place for me.
I personally found #OCD and the Hive Community on my own while I was exploring communities. I consider this an excellent opportuinity for me and everyone to explore our wealt of talents and knowledge for mutually exclusive goals on Hive, I subscribed to the community immediately and I hope that you do so too.

We sincerely hope you find everything you are looking for and have found a new home here.Welcome to the Hive community @airlvis!

Seven suggestions to consider:

1. Guard your passwords carefully, and only publish with the posting key,
2. Use your active key only for wallet transactions, Keychain, Peaklock, and Hivesigner,
3. The master password and the owner key are only used to reset compromised passwords,
4. DO NOT lose your passwords; copy and store offline,
5. Do not publish other people's work, be it photos or written, without credit, and be sure to source all of your work, even if it is your own.
6. An introduceyourself tag is used only once , and
7. DO NOT OPEN any links in memos or comments that you do not know who they belong to. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is, so the old saying goes. There is nothing free here.

I found you because @brittandjosie and @jamerussell from @heyhaveyamet presented and promoted your publication to get more exposure and help you grow faster.

If you find yourself overwhelmed and need some guidance, or if you have any questions, there are informed Hiveans available who can help you; you can click to go to The Terminal in Discord here:

Have fun and happy Hiving!
