Reward for posting on HIVE is upvotes.

HIVE upvotes are linked to money.

HIVE upvotes are in limited supply, based on circle jerks and whale boner suck offs.

You don't want to circle jerk, or suck off any whale boners.

But you still want to get upvotes.

My solution is to build a business that exists outside of HIVE and simply use HIVE as a toolset, not an end in and of itself.

That way you can accumulate and be detached from the immediate outcome,

SO YOU CAN HAVE YOUR OWN WHALE BONER!

With your own rules for who gets your REWARD.

Maybe when you post your Conspiracy Podcast, you use your HIVE channel as a backstage pass, and incentivize people to leave compelling comments, or provide interesting proof, or whatever, and then they get rewards based on the quality of their engagement?
