RE: Why wouldn't someone join Hive?

in OCD4 years ago

Right now, I'm mostly building rep and relationships on the Hive.

How do you build rep and relationships without seeking for posts to upvote?

How do you think a person gets to a point that their influence has value on Hive?

Well, I think organic comments help. Reblogging helps too.

For this, I was talking about monetary value.

Comments help, participation helps - building a network is like building many friendships - there is a lot of giving.

Anyone has the option to buy in. It isn't always possible for everyone though, so it means doing the grind. For a little information though, having a large stake doesn't come with influence, there are plenty here who seem to have very little voice at all, no matter how much they have.

This is a very rare event though. If we are being honest.

Nope, it is rather common. People are attratced to stake for sure, but they don't seem to see that those who they are attracted to have influence beyond their stake and some people have influence with little stake at all. Stake and influence are different animals, though they can be used to compound against each other if a person is willing to both add stake and work. My account is a ground up build that started from a scratch in nothing - no stake, no influence. The influence started before the stake was significantly influential because of where I spent my time and energy.

I get your point now..
