RE: Looking for the Future after Taking a Trip Down Memory Lane

in #hive4 years ago

That's what I thought the communities were for! LOL! But instead we took an already tiny market, then split it up into way more and far tinier sections. Facebook didn't have groups like that until it was sustainable, and they flourished. The content on Facebook is CHEAP though. But I imagine 100 out of 10k would probably be able to keep those 9900 people occupied. Now, they probably wouldn't be making the big bucks, especially off the start, but in most cases, one individual earning ten cents is far more than the entire group earned over the span of many years. This isn't a tough sell, but like I said in the post, doing it now is somewhat confusing.

Another concern I have is the talk of the Hive token being stripped of functionalities, including the reward pool going away. And these communities of the future would then be on their own, with their own token, and that would be a disaster for 99% of people who tried without some kind of a lifeline to help get them started.

I'm not sure if there were a concrete target audience when they designed communities.

This is the bitter truth, yeah.

In theory, this won't hurt your HIVE assets. But I am not a fan of it either and I don't think we will see that anytime soon.

Maybe HIVE is fine, but does the 'theory' explain how to grow the project after? Not really. It's more or less "our money is safe and the rest of you are on your own. See ya." I won't support that idea until I see a battle plan.

I think the idea is to be a general database for (d)apps. The problem is: we don't have these masses of (d)apps, we are too slow to follow "the movement" (DeFi) and Vitalik Buterin is doing a pretty good job to do exactly the same.

"I won't support that idea until I see a battle plan."

Same here.
