I think building out the financial system with out pushing the use of the financial system would be an error. Hive should work on giving its members a way to transact before a way to borrow. In this case we would need to begin work on building a community that wants to sell goods and services. An easy start to this is in services and not products. The Hive already has many talented artist, musicians, arts and craft people that could sell but then it is the marketing as well.
For me this may be an easier challenge as I have plans to grow food and commodities and sell them in cryptos, my whole point here is that you can build out these systems but if your community adoption is 5% 10% its a lot of wasted time VS driving the awareness of a financial community that buys sells and trades nominated in HIVE - HBD.
Building a community that actively trades goods and services via the native cryptos or blockchain structure is a better benefit that turning the system into a bank with lending and other legacy financial toolsets.
So in what way could we benefit the people who are already selling goods physical and digital goods?
Getting them to do the same action just denominated in HBD vs ETH, USD, EUR, BTC?
The social media aspect is a plus having a thriving economy of real goods and services 1 million percent better.
Thinking that the only way to add value to a currency is through commerce is a mistake. The numbers when you account for investing, funding, lending, and collateralization dwarfs commerical transactions.
Not that they arent important, they certainly are. However, when driving value to HBD, it is vital to access all the different areas where the most HBD will get sucked up. A platform that offers financial services, all tied sHBD, will likely offer a faster growth rate as compared to finance.
Plus, then commercial development can also be funded, further expanding the ecosystem.
