Hive is definitely a very different animal from everything else out there. For me, who has been on this platform for more than 8 years, it is not about the amount of hive or hbd that I can accumulate but about how much interesting content it can provide me. Never use social networks like Facebook, Twitter, or any of the thousands that exist out there. But Hive has that nuance of being a network governed by many and where apparently no one has the power to decide its destiny. That's what catches my attention the most about this pseudo social network. I am simply a consumer of content, and I find it very interesting everything that people are capable of writing just to earn a few HBD or Hives.

For now, I consider Hive a pseudo social network because basically its motivation is purely financial despite the multiple topics that are published. However, throughout all these years I have seen a very positive evolution around the content that is published and the reasons why said content is published. The economic factor seems to be less and less important for some authors, and they no longer focus on doing Spam to get some HBD or Hive but on generating high quality content. They are very few but without a doubt it is a trend.

I do not believe that the main engine in the future of Hive will be generating content, but rather other types of much more profitable applications such as being a niche for IOT, for which it already has all the conditions required. This is what can generate real economic value for Hive, where 99% of network activities are carried out by electronic devices, creating great economic benefits for all Hive holders. Thus, the publications will no longer be for economic reasons but for truly generating content that has a satisfied consumer of that content...
