You used to say

Hive is a POPPING ISLAND ready for the mass onboarding and with all the tools for coders to "BUIDL ON"

You peddled all kinds of idiotic marketing requests to the poor folks here like "make an elevator pitch for Hive" and "Twitter Madness until you truly go Mad yourself"

Now you say it's STILL IN BETA.

So either you knew you were full of shit back then. Or you realize now that the previous bullshit you pushed didn't/doesn't mean much if the system is/was no where near ready.

Anyway I agree that communities with tokens for the interactions between humans (not necessarily all granting monetary value) is the future.

Humans like to feel connected and they experience an endorphin release as instant gratification for an action which then compels them to stay in that community.

Hive however, can only achieve that once/when:

• Onboarding is a transition without the slightest hurdle.

• Discord is ditched as the place for actual social interactions/connectivity.

• The mobile experience is superior with built in chat and wallet..

• So that the easiest marketing pitch will be:

"just download the app"

Until then, you and the likes pitching onboarding campaigns to the community is nonsensical.

A Butterfly paid to then pay a single external firm to attempt to pimp Hive as 'The Decentralized Mecca' is an oxymoron.

Those points outlined are fundamentally crucial.

I'm not necessarily an intelligent person but I know that those points HAVE TO BE achieved before anyone goes thinking or publicly declaring that "Hive is primed to lead in that 'tokenized communities future' inevitability."

If it was that simple then Hive; and more on point: LEO would be shining brightly among the DeFi game that they're playing. Yet they have failed at attracting anything more than a handful of people who would go from "I like Defi, but I like this tokenized community more."

So that doesn't happen because all the rest which is missing. Which is really the story of Steemit, Hive, Tribes, gaming here. It's forever a very small niche that still stays on this diminishing archipelago only because there will always be a group of fools chasing money. Even if that's a faucet dripping fractions of a cent.

But nothing is forever.

So this thing in Beta needs to truly change. Or essentially be consumed by the surrounding sea: the rest of Blockchain development which will not doubt likely fill the void and achieve the Communities+Token+Social platform.

A platform fit for that Web3.0 label and a system where the tagline "Join The Revolution" actually stands for what it means.
