This is the way. You're adding huge value; really, you're adding the value of a whole marketing team yourself. And really, this place thrives off of diversity of content. There should be thousands of communities, each with their own community and community skin-in-the-game approaches where people promote without promoting. FB, Twitter all the rest never ran commercials (at least I never saw any), yet they get shared for "free" every minute of every day. That is because content is king, and if you can provide a way to give various niche communities value by coming to Hive, they start promoting Hive without evening thinking about it.

Thanks for the recognition, appreciate it!
You're right! The best promotion is free promotion but organic results are quite hard to acquire on trad social media as these platforms want to drive users into spending for ad space by reducing their reach. This can be solved by tapping into hype trains like Axie but Axie is far from being the only hype train out there rn. It might be the mightiest one, but it's far from being the only one. I'd like to see other Hivers do the same for other crypto communities as there is so much untapped potential here.
We should hammer this mentality (searching for users outward instead of inward) into Hive's community culture as most are still stuck at trying to attract Hivers instead of new users.
It might be a good idea to provide some result-based incentives to make this happen quicker. I don't need them as seeing Hive prosper is more than enough for me but others might be more inclined to go down this route if they were incentivized. Because to do this well, and on a grander level, community owners need to put in a lot of time and effort which without proper incentive, most won't be willing to do.
If we wait for this to materialize organically we might be retarding Hive's growth and missing out on a lot of potential growth. Figuring out a decent incentive structure could be the steroids we need to make Hive grow faster.
