Reading the comments looks like many think a FIVER type service should be the flagship project to see if HBD can have utility.

I agree because as I said to EL GRINGO @smooth ... MARKETS is what this place needs in order to expand its reach and uptake of users. AND to get the crypto world to realize the technology here can be useful outside of just voting for mindless content.

The beauty of markets is that the actual content and activity doesn't need to bloat the chain. Only the transactions and records need to be onchain. Reading a post from @melbourneswest shows how that would look like:

While many people think web3.0 system MUST succeed by taking over the current systems, I see it more logically. That integrating this tech where it makes sense is how the future looks. It's never going to be "DECENTRALIZED MUST WIN" and all of us "early investors" of these infant systems are the champions of the future.

Anyway the other "GEM" that exist here is that the attention from Latin America is already acquired. And to that part of the world ONE UNITED STATES DOLLAR is a damn decent reward. So my suggestion is that this could be the base for building a market network that can maybe expand.

DIFAD - Do It For A Dollar.
A poor man's FIVER.

Then as activity grows it could become more global with a tier system where you add multipliers that denote how many actual dollars the transaction/service/product carries.

And we all know that in crypto... people love multipliers! So for example DIFAD can facilitate services between artist already here on the chain, to create imagery for fantasy writers also already here in Hive. DIFAD can be the ACTUAL REWARD GIVEN to people promoting Hive on their twitter. Instead of a promise of poshtoken that may or may not ever have value or utility.

So that's my vision: Dee FAD!
Might be just a fad or it might catch on.

Might even attract external audiences and networks that are already doing it for a few dollars. Like onlyfans for instance. To create such a system with crypto would be quite simple and likely very lucrative. I'm surprised Mark Cuban hasn't explored it. Since he is after all.. A SHARK!

Hey who knowns maybe you can get someone on twitter to post this to Cuban and they can DIFAD!

It's time for HIVE to leave these small confines, that echo nothing but self-deluded praise that this technology is superior. It's just not going to attract outside eyes if nothing has really developed in all these years.
