content creation is still at the center of Hive and I don't foresee any future where it isn't.
Over my many years spending time actually mingling with the members, I can tell you majority don't see a future if content isn't involved. I left a link there and if you look close at the response I received, you'll see how something like that is telling me to stop, today, because there is no tomorrow. That is not what I and many others came here to hear, two weeks in.
I do know a lot of people are working hard behind the scenes. So are a lot of people up front. "Content nobody wants?" That was a low blow and... yeah. What more needs to be said.
Thanks for stopping in. You've had my witness vote for a long time. Maybe a few others will see this and hook you up as well.
I knew that's what you were talking about without even clicking on the link. While it does hold some merit, the most valuable thing on Hive is its userbase. There are a lot of altcoins that stake. Hex stakes. You can stake Hex forever and go nuts waiting for it. The community here came here to produce content and to consume content. Even those who are producing plagiarism are still going about it with content being their ultimate focus.
The apps that come or arise like Splinterlands become popular because they entertain those same users. Splinterlands is also not profitable because its not content-based but because the team behind it has a business model that goes beyond "get free delegation --> profit". The same goes for BROsino Poker, formerly Lucksacks. It's not going strong because it rejects content creators but because it has a realistic business plan and project management behind it. The purpose of all these games is like I said, to entertain the content creators.
All of the brainstorming going on now is mainly because everyone wants to raise the price and utility of HIVE. It's hard to say what the future holds. Right now content consumption is likely at its peak because most of the world is stuck in quarantine.
And as always, thanks for your support.
Those consumers who play the games take breaks and come visit the posts. It's an entire entertainment industry being developed. Something for everyone and things you didn't even know you'd like. More on the way. There's no point in rejecting one market in favor of another when you can have it all. That's my point. And I'd really love to see that consumer driven business model I keep talking about take shape because with those consumers, more apps, games, content; it can all thrive. And come on now let's be realistic. What investor wouldn't want in on that action?
I'm offering a fascinating method of increasing that token value, steadily. Not just pumps and dumps. Consumers always spend money.
