There is one aspect of the Hive blockchain that is always contested and criticized. You must know what it is if you are here for more than a few months.
It has to be the marketing aspect of the blockchain.
We, the loyal followers and users of hive blockchain, consider this chain the holy grail among other chains. If you go outside of the chain and search for Hive blockchain and dapps you will definitely be disappointed.
Searching for Hive on Google, not sure about chatGPT, will render you helpless. There are so many other social media platforms that are listed through google search engine results that do not even have 1% of the community user base.
All this to say that there is always this mentality that Hive communities are not big on marketing and shedding light on all the great projects that we have here. There were/are proposals to market Hive to outsiders. I have seen tweets posting a rally car with Hive signages all over. That’s great but more grass root level marketing can be done.
In that context, I am amazingly surprised when
@leogrowth and
@leofinance came up with a new engagement tool to engage community members on threads.
I did not know but looks like #crew3 is a big name in marketing web3 projects. It is satisfyingly unique in its structure and how you assign tasks.
I am convinced that it is a great marketing and engagement tool if you are building and developing your brand. If you are on the threads then you must know by now that anyone with 1K Leo power can participate in this engagement game powered by crew3.
Here’s a link https://crew3.xyz/c/leofinance-4960/invite/0GFy_PSwRZe-4s1kog9cw
There are multiple quests designed and users can earn points based on the tasks completed as assigned. Right now, there are close to 100 contestants participating in the quest.
The winners will get 10K leo and 100K leo power delegation. That’s a juicy reward.
I use threads on a daily basis. What I know for fact is that thread is a great tool to engage with others. If you do your quests and go higher on the leaderboard, you definitely increase the potential to win the prize money. Even if you do not win those prizes, I am confident that you will gain so many new followers and acquaintances on Hive which will eventually build your reputation and potentially earnings too.
There is no loss in taking part in the quest.
I can personally attest that I have made so many new connections being active on threads. I feel like I am already benefiting by gaining a number of connections and receiving the right information from the right group of people.
Marketing threads is marketing Hive. If you think no one is doing enough to market hive to outsiders then take the baton yourself and thread the hell out and share that on twitter. We need more transactions on Hive and we need more communities to participate.
