I was not really thinking of someone advertising Hive. I was thinking of an actual content creator with a following just bellow the threshold to make money. Basically someone who creates content as a hobby, not their job. I have always wondered if there is a way to encourage them to make Hive their home. This would also mean their audience would come with. I wonder if there is a way to give that creator some hive from the community fund which they could then give to their followers. They could show the followers that instead of just giving their attention for free, now they can vote and get tiny curation rewards for rewarding their favorite content creator. If the audience is loyal, they may just get a dopamine hit by seeing that their vote gave their entertainer a little reward “I did that!”. They give their entertainer a free thumbs up, this is actually tangible. I realize there is a huge risk that the creator could just pocket the money and leave. They may also give their fans hive and they could leave. So there would have to be some vetting and maybe some kind of smart contract that if they do x then they get something from the community fund at the end of a year. TLDR can we use the DHF to attract an entertainer and their audience? It doesn’t have to be a huge audience. Right now there really isn’t an audience here. It’s creators creating for other creators.
