Hey Wolf - Standard Criticism for these sorts of things.
IMO what you're doing here is only part of the puzzle.
We [HIVE SOCIAL MEDIA USERS] - have an excellent ability to tweetstorm, and hashtag bomb, and such.
But, the question is - what is the substance behind the cultish movement of the community toward attempting to viral itself?
What I see increasing the value of HIVE has to do with people actually creating content that is valuable to people outside of HIVE - and then hosting or redirecting that sort of information back to HIVE.
The youtube game has that initial subscriber push, prior to monetizaiton.
The HIVE MIND as it were, would be super useful for getting the necessary amount of subscribers to get a channel to qualify for monetization - but then you have to think of what the point of the channel is:
Is it another version of cointelegraph?
Is it another version of chicocrypto?
Is it another version of coindesk?
Or - Is it developer focused, for training an even smaller, but active subset of people to create dapps through HIVE?
Does it focus on all decentralized ecosystems?
Or, in the example of ACTFIT - is it really a fitness channel, that happens to refer to HIVE - in this section you're not competing with current crypto people, you're just referring people toward HIVE, and setting up an audience engagement via reward pool type experience.
Questions.
Thoughts about what the channel is for?
Etc.
Just a thought, and a criticism -- because I actually am quite turned off by the sort of cultish 'retweet' this -- activity on twitter.
Shilling Aantonop to get a HIVE account, because he made a sarcastic comment about twitter.
Is a recent example of imo an inappropriate, and over exuberant attempt to shill hive, without any real clarity or understanding of what the attempt is trying to accomplish.
Obviously the idea was to try and get Andreas to join HIVE - because big influencer goes on hive, then more people go on hive, then hive price go up?
But it's really transparent, and it doesn't really offer that much value, because Andreas already has solutions and HIVE doesn't offer him sufficient value to pursue that, otherwise, he would already be doing it.
What would be more impressive, is if these people actually built content that was 'powered by hive' - and worthy of attention from people both within and outside of HIVE - and then built audiences on HIVE and cared enough about their HIVE audience engagement incentivization to where they were willing to Stake more HP, in order to offer more reward pool toward their audience via upvotes for engagement.
But that level of marketing and BUIDLing is sorely under-represented in the HIVE community, and instead I see a lot of spammy, cultish, behavior, where if people think that they scream hive, or hashtag enough times, the price will go up, or people will onboard.
This is super n00b marketing tech.
And it's not very effective.

I'm not saying this is what you are doing - because I haven't even looked into your channel - I'm just posing a series of questions, and suggesting that if you're going to use the hivemind to push for subs -- it might as well be for a specific goal.
Like, getting into the qualifications for ad revenue on youtube.
But, I think a more sustainable long term move would be to create a program that is shared on multiple platforms, and is actually appreciated for the value it has in and of itself.
Crimsonclad, attempts to do this with her MSPWaves shows.
Honestly, I think the best thing for people to do would be to get behind Crim's work, and drive subs to her channel, and create a 24/7 synthwave stream, and collab with artists, and coordinate interviews and album releases with synthwave artists, etc.
Pushing to refine content in this way has a clear target audience [Synthwave People] - And the Synthwave Artists, and the Visual Artists, and the Radio Listeners for the 24/7 Synthwave Streaming, and the Study Mixes, etc -- this is where all of the attention is for the Synthwave projects on Youtube.
So, the move -- in my mind, would be to direct subs to Crim's Channel - and then coordiante with Crim to gain Youtube Access for her, to help build that channel out, in the ways described earlier.
Then you get a large funnel of Synthwave Listeners, Artists, Visual Artists, Projects, Maybe even Game Devs, channeling into a SYNTHWAVE Channel, which happens to be sponsored by HIVE, and performed in front of a live audience and engaging with that audience via MSPWaves each week.
And the HIVE MIND function here -- would be to drive subs to the channel in order to bolster it, and put it into monetizeable categorization.

Then, do the same thing to expand that channel even further to include Metal Music / Artists / Streams / Mixes / Project Releases / Collaborations.
This brings audience and funds into MSPWaves, which then actually uses Youtube as it was meant to be used -- to channel audience members into HIVE based on their interests.

I'll do what I can to try and integrate this into my own business model, but it would be cool if more people were using this sort of approach. I'm not saying it's RIGHT, but it seems more focused.
