My name is Moses Okon Tom, with the username, @enwang. I was born about 40 years ago in Enwang, a riverine community in Mbo Local Government Area, near Ibaka Deep Seaport in Oro Nation, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria.
I am a journalist, a blogger and SEO enthusiast, a content creator and social media influencer who is passionate about writing and living a simple life for the service of Almighty God and humanity in a digital world.
A graduate of Community Arts in the prestigious University of Uyo, Nigeria, I strong advocate of Thinking Globally but Acting Locally. Originally coined by the urban planner, Patrick Geddes, this phrase serves as a guiding principle to me in a bid to address global challenges with localised actions. One thing this philosophy has taught me is the need to integrate global insights with a nuanced understanding of local contexts and content.
This principle enables me to utilize digital technology to meet local needs, concerns and challenges, even solving family problems in a global village.
When I got married in 2017, I had no idea about HIVE Digital Technologies, little did I know that an innovative and pioneering technology company advancing sustainable blockchain had not only been born but would also grow into a global leader in digital asset mining.
When I first learned of HIVE I had mixed feelings about that platform - interesting and discouraging. I found it interesting because it finds expression in my journalism profession and passion for blogging and writing. Would it worth the passion? I wish its creativity was enough to endear to join the platform.
The discouraging aspect of it was because I mistook it for other social media platforms that full of ads and algorithms as well as uncertain future.
Again, I was sceptical about cryptocurrencies in general, apparently because they were thought to be scams.
I regretted not joining the platform then.
And so when a friend of mine recently introduced me to SpendHBD, which he described as a wonderful initiative, that uses #distriator app, a non profit making app to shop/make purchase at a listed business outlet and make payment with HBD (hive backed dollar) I had no hesitation whatsoever to join the platform.
Its instant cashback of 20% - 40% and swift payment m with no hidden charged like the conventional fiat transfer, is a real incentive. It capacity to project the HIVE application to the real life situation is not only convincing but also appealing.
Thanks friends for introducing me to this platform. I can now leverage on its simplicity and reliability, turning my passion for writing into investments.
But the key question is: Am I welcome here? If the answer is emphatic YES, how do HIVERS show their hospitality and generosity?
