We are ALL looking for benefits. It can either be from something or someone. This article is going to be an overview of a much deeper one I wish to write in the latter days. I am sure I did write an article similar to this sometime ago. It didn't capture much anyway. So what's it all about? Hive of course. Many of us are here for more despite the fact that we are yet to be fully heard.
At that early stage you joined Hive, maybe all that mattered was some big upvotes that kept you inspired (no doubt, even till date, we need them). We just keep on pushing in as many articles as possible, hoping fortune will smile at us. To some they get much and to others, it doesn't really work out. Maybe that is why they bow out. Nevertheless, we grow overtime or on another end one can say, 'we want to'. Maybe the right word there should have been 'need to', rather than 'want to'. You should remember the economic rules; need is an effective demand.
I have been doing some articles rambling these days and love featuring

That was part of it anyway, moving on. The question that remains vital is how can I benefit from the Hive ecosystem on a long run?. The simplest of answers is always 'invest your time'. A good one, nevertheless we have our different views of time investment. To one this could mean a continuous posting of articles, Threads on InLeo, curation and so on ( there is absolutely nothing wrong with this, there is a big need to connect with people and learn something new).
Nevertheless, I am beginning to side more to another view while as I earlier said still meeting the first requirements. So I ask, assuming you were no longer getting curations or not often as some of us are from 
Have we ever considered what it will mean for a web3 platform to host as many entrepreneurs as possible? The reason why it is difficult to move some people from web2 to web3 currently is because they have pitched their business tent on web2 earlier and fear to start over. This is why I keep on suggesting Hive should be more flexible with upcoming entrepreneurs. I am talking from an angle of experience. Currently I am trying to grow my brand. The question of who buys, where and how they will be buying depends solely on where my tenth will be pitched.

We should not in anyway neglect offline business, in short, most things put online are processed offline. For instance, the shoes you just ordered were done in an offline factory. What do I mean here? If we all wait for Internet guru, web developers and coders alone, we will be growing an undersized industry which will limit us in the near future. It may seem nothing is happening yet I can say the day of booming is coming, will we boom well?
Entrepreneurs have what to offer and need some sort of sponsorship and backups from those who believe there is a future for Hive. We have to merge both online and the offline market to get an outstanding result. Just imagine what happens if one of our platform entrepreneur zooms maybe in the next five years. That business already will be influencing thousands of people who can order for such service or products using Hive, LEO tokens or HBD. We are talking of transactions here. The more the transactions, the more relevant a platform becomes.
To conclude, let me add, there is more to say yet I cannot cover it in a single article. As I said in the earlier part of this article, this is just a brush over of the latter article. At least something for the hive faithfuls to think about. There is a need to help unlimit our limited entrepreneurs by seeking to know how we can build a fortified platform for not just NOW but future use. I will also love to hear the contributions that
