You fundamentally misapprehend what Hive's unique value is.

It is NOT to become a blockchain Facebook, Twitter or Youtube. That ship sailed with the crypto ad ban.

It doesn't need mass adoption (and frankly I wouldn't want that mass of idiots on traditional social media to come here).

Hive's blogging and community aspects and its financial aspects are secondary to its unique role as a self-sustaining decentralised public database and notifications mechanism.
Its user base will grow as those use-cases grow.

Proof of Brain via rewards for content was only ever intended to widely and fairly spread the Hive token to create true decentralisation.

Splinterlands, eXode, PodPing and Keychain show the way to Hive's true future.

We don't need or want the morons of TikTok or other mindless "influencers" here.

We want more developers to discover what Hive offers them.
