Hello everyone, how are you doing today? Hope you are having a great time. This will be Week 193, Edition 02 of our Weekly Featured Content.
Made With Canva
So, last Saturday we had our hangout as usual, and it was just so much fun that we did not want it to end. We are currently on the second topic for this week, which is “ORGAN MARKET”.
But before we proceed with the details of the topic, let us take a look at the winners of the last topic, which was “MONETIZATION”.
This topic was geared toward each member of the community, telling us about their thoughts on the monetization of social media and how it has changed the way many people view content creation. Prompting people to go full-time into content creation, we’ve seen an influx of creators who are willing to do anything and everything just to get views and engagements.
We got to see that while there is good content out there, there are also people who don’t mind dabbling into highly controversial topics and take just to get people to engage with their content. This has also led to an increased amount of unbeneficial content that people consume on a daily basis. And from the look of things, it will only get worse with time.
For this topic, we went through every entry post, and that is every post with the #hl-exclusive & #hl-w193e1; tag. And with the number of wonderful posts out there, it was quite difficult to make a selection. But eventually, we did just that. And so, the posts that will be featured not just for their exceptional content, but also for their level of engagement with other authors, will be listed below.
Featured Contents
EXPERIENCING A UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME? by 
This author told us that while content monetization was one of the best things to happen to social media, it has also come to show that over time, it’s not really been fair. Using the Hive ecosystem as a case study, it shows how high-value content could go unnoticed while mediocre content gets all the curation simply due to connections.
THE DEMOCRATIZATION OF OPPORTUNITIES by 
For this author, he talked about how content monetization has opened doors for a lot of people and how this has changed the trajectory of so many people’s lives. For him, he even put his studies on hold so he could focus more on creating content on YouTube, something that has been working well enough for him so far. It shows just how vital monetization has become to social media.
IMPACT OF MONETIZATION ON CONTENT QUALITY & LABOUR FORCE by 
For this author, he talked about how monetization has inspired so many people to go into all forms of content creation, even dabbling in unethical content, using sensitive topics just to trend and drive engagement. However, he doesn’t blame monetization for this, people just choose to take advantage of whatever comes around.
All of the above contents were supported by our official curation account lazy-panda with an extra amount. The first 3 authors will receive 100 ECENCY Points [ Sponsored By Ecency Team (
@melinda010100) ] and 1 $PANDAMINER each as a reward next Monday. These posts were selected because of their special attention to detail and how they followed the topic. There were a lot of good ones out there, but we just could not pick them all.
But then, we have some honorable mentions listed below:

AND NOW, WE MOVE ON TO THE NEW TOPIC!
Week 193 - Edition 02 Topic
ORGAN MARKET
“Worldwide, it's unethical for anyone to deal in the sale of human organs, and this is illegal, which gives rise to its sale on the black market. But when people are willing to trade one of their kidneys or some other organ to make ends meet, shouldn't they have a right to do this? Since it's their body, shouldn't they have the right to decide what to do with it or sell pieces of it? What are your thoughts on this?”
