thank you for this wonderful information
Nailed it. Nailed everything there is to it. Each time the price racks up I see more names and old names coming alive and where the fuck have these people been when we were at the bottom? No chill for those inactives that suddenly came active only to see them active on the other blockchain.
What happened to noise.cash will happen to any platform that gives money as fluid as one click of a button.
I'm boggled with your "where the fuck have these people been" comment. We still are at rock bottom in terms of price, usage, applications, and developers. If people come and go from the platform, is it fair and wise to assume and pronounce that it's because of the price? For those who have seen the inner workings and politics within the echo chamber, sometimes people simply need a break from the discouraging behavior and communication... and they're free to come and go when they feel inspired to return... not slandered. If you must, Steem used to be ~$8. With little developmental progress over the last year with a single page of barely-adopted lasting applications (and even since 2017 on Steem) , price is probably Hive's best form of marketing in the short-term if we're realistic here anyway.
I had the mental image of users still leaving and dissing the place then coming back just for price reasons. Suddenly it's worth their time to make a few paragraphs, get autovotes, and wait for the 7th day paycheck. It's not like that system has change. We got a lot of happenings going on within the span of a year, more progress than the old chain used to have. This price increase is just a hype then people will start losing the dopamine once bear season comes.
I don't know about the politics you speak of. None of those things interest me as an average user just doing my thing. Perhaps a people's choice to choose their own source of stress over the platform. Telling you one thing though, this is a hobby chain and I put my money in it and watch it fail, still in it because it's just hobby money spent, nice to see prices soar but I don't mind it losing a bit, more cheap hive for my blockchain games.
The money printer without the need to buying stake as it can be freely given by a click was our best form of marketing.
To be fair, it's nice to see some old faces return. I don't judge. I've had to leave before and then show up, at some point. Can't only come back when the price is low... right? And yes I won't deny there's that element that's suddenly so happy bright and shiny to be here and start earning again...
And what happened to noise cash? I don't pay attention any more.
I like a bit of integrity when old faces show up. I often see some active on the other platform dissing or pretending this blockchain didn't exist at all. Starting to be active here pretending they miss it and be two face generic about the act. Just became a pet peeve.
The TL;DR for noise.cash is how their admins admitted that more than 9/10 content there are just spam baiting for free tips. The bot crowd leaks to any platform that can give some $ with a click. It's here though under control
Yeah those types are included in the group I blasted in my previous post. The fakers and the takers.
I think I arrived back on the scene shortly before there was any substantial price movement. Didn't care about that though. Finally had some time and was able to focus on more things, like this.
As for that other platform, well, I blasted those in my previous post as well. This whole decentralized media scene like to be irresponsible at times. Hive is the only one it seems where people take it seriously enough, and there's still room for the hobbyists.
That post led me to another post update done by blocktrades recently. I'm getting out of touch with some small and large development happening due to real world preoccupations but loving the progressive changes that's been happening recently. Your last post speaks how much shit is being overlooked. People don't want to speak out because the altercation will threaten 'muh money'. I swear people trade their integrity with a click if it meant free money and doesn't cost them beyond character. It's even ridiculous that some people are stuck with the idea of treating this as any other regular social media which it isn't.
Technological advancement that happened decades, the blockchain being one of them, now reduced to a money printer. This is peak civilization.
Yes, Hive seems to be leading the way, hopefully in the right direction, and those changes do sound promising. And I most likely ruffled a few feathers but what goes around comes around. Why take this shit for granted?
Because it's difficult to see the long term of how things can be if people bothered to invest more on this place. I mean, 4 or 5 years ago, I'm sure the ones that stayed long are already reaping a profit if they knew when to sell and not. The ones that have been successful are those with grit and have character substance when they built their connections.
I underestimated my own connections made years to months while I was inactive. Turned out the people I interacted with got lasting impressions and now reaping those rewards. Shame for the people that come and go with the price. If they only know how much they win just stacking up or sticking around building communities they could have been bigger than what they initially thought was possible.
To be fair again. This is a tough gig. I know folks who've left or lurk about silently, and they love this place. I don't want the door to be closed just because a constantly fluctuating number went up. I hear you, but not all those people are shady. I know a lot of people here. They's good folk.
How I wish I could give you children or this comment alone! The other problem is that they are often still on auto voters. I saw a post from a returnee last night, full of BS and I was a little proud I refrained from commenting about how they had only come back because they'd powered everything down and were now after the cash again when the prices were up. Fucking parasites, hypocritical parasites. I wouldn't blame or dislike them if they were honest but no...total BS.....
Thank you for speaking out and best wishes to you :-)
It seems that I've noticed this trend myself...
The best time to earn hive was when it was 15 cents, not 50 cents...all my formerly 15 cent hive is now worth 50 cents, but those people didn't think about that...
There is absolutely something more genuine about the place when prices are low!
Calling it as it is, I think most long stayers here can see through the BS. Hive is relatively close knit enough to know anybody who is anybody a few months down the exposure. Your words describe some of them so well. The best stories are being happy to be around only to see their accounts still active on the other platform all this time.
If you are looking for a way to earn some extra income every week. Look no more! Here is a great opportunity for everyone to make $82/per hour by working in your free time on your computer from home. I've been doing this for 6 months now and last month I’ve earned my first five-figure paycheck ever! Learn more about it on following LINK.......>>>>>>>>>>>>>> https://www.Nifty2.com
You being here is kind of ironic.
I bet that's a scam link of sorts. Anyone clicking it is probably a moron, right? If you've been doing that for 6 months, why the fuck are you here, doing this? Is it because you're a fucking scammer and all you know is how to be full of shit? Hmmm? Follow this LINK to lick my balls.
Lol whoa.
There's only one way to help people and ensure they're not clicking stupid spam links. It's called, "Make a goddamn scene."
Fucking A man!!! This is how you deal with those! Yay someone who speaks my language! I actually loled like maniacal overlord loled.
Be careful here. Don't click random links offering 'free money' or 'air drops' because it's a scam. You could be sent to a site that even looks a Hive site, asking for your keys. Don't give them your keys. Worst part is, people fall for this shit all the time.
Nah, these fingers have been burnt. Lessons hard learnt. I ain’t clicking no link i didn’t type myself! I was commending your stern reproach of the would be scammer definite idiot. Some people don’t know how to read, I do. Surprise! Hahaha. I’ve been having to write similar responses to the spammers on the spamfest that is noise. Doing my bit to bin the trash one piece at a time.
I got a phone call once, from a scammer. I played along for awhile, then put him on hold, and by that I mean I put the phone next to the speaker while the music was playing. He was still on the phone 20 minutes later...
Said he liked the music...
So I put him back on hold for another 20.
Brilliant! I do a reverse vibe. “Hi, thank you so much for calling, I am so excited to tell you about this amazing offer I have for you today...” I’ve only ever had one “sales person” interested in my supposed product. Kinda fun improv selling a fictional product.
