I think HIVE a great place for decentralized creatives like musicians, when used in conjunction with other #freedomtools. I've found incredible support from the @dashpay community and Litecoin folks too. I love those blockchains and their people.
@v4v.app and soon @zypto are making it possible to spend HIVE at shops, @hivedebit is on its way.
@vsc.network is helping create a multi-coin ecosystem. Hive is great for musicians; blockchain technology is great for musicians, but like anything in life, TANSTAAFL.

We've got to be willing to push that boulder uphill for a while :)
