Would you be OK if Hive blockchain remained a niche blockchain ecosystem?

Sort:  

not going to happen.
We finally have builders not bid-bot whiners

Still a lot of whining going on but you are right, there are those focusing on building.

the whiners will cash out when the building gets farther along.
and then things will really take off :)
2 more Hive webgl games coming soon.
Portal Brawlers Demo out
Darkcloaks.io coming soon
LeoDex !!!

love to see it!

oh we will see it. it is just the way humans work

I am adding some liquidity to the diesel pool. I will focus upon that each day for a while.

We need to get more $LEO into the vehicle currency system.

Infrastructure isnt going to make it so.

If people understood what a permissionless, feeless database means in the #ai era, they would be scooping up as much $HIVE as they could.

Sure but it has to figured out exactly what that niche is going to be that's part of the issue with hive at the moment.

I wrote a blog post titled Hive: crossing the technology adoption chasm where I share some thoughts on an interview with Geoffrey Moore on the adoption of cutting edge technologies.

His advice is super valuable for anybody starting a tech company and relevant to a decentralized protocol like the Hive blockchain. He basically recommends us to focus on the best and most compelling use case first.

I believe the most compelling use case for HIVE is as a payment tool. Use Keychain + V4Vapp to pay at shops that accept Bitcoin. It just needs to be a bit more seamless for the user and get a little more promotion :)

Just as there R adults still trying 2figure-out what they want 2B when they grow up, it's the same w/ Hive blockchain & what we want it 2B. It's OK if it stays niche, but what will that niche B? Whatever it is, Hive has 2own it like a boss.

Yes. It has been and may always be a niche. Especially inside the ecosystem. Maybe someday more (d)apps may be used by people outside of Hive without even knowing.

I think I'd be OK with that. I can create value for others and receive value in return (value-for-value) and I can earn more $HIVE and/or $HBD or spend it in real life at any establishment that accepts Bitcoin over Lightning.

I'd be OK if it remains niche forever.

I'd also be very happy if its use took off.

How would you feel?

Feels good man. Feels that it will continue to be niche as it has not be on exchanges with the main coins as much. However if Hive found itself linked to something in the field of education at some point this could lead too many younger users. So I lean towards remaining niche with a possibility of more use.

The blockchain is super useful as a business backend. Two ideas come to mind:

  • More games like Splinterlands
  • Remittances. This continues to be a huge market in Latin American countries where people often leave to the United States and wire dollars back home using outdated remittance services like Western Union.

I wouldn't mind if HIVE stayed niche for the social aspect but I think it has huge potential as backend solution for business. I agree that education might be another industry.

More games like Splinterlands

Frog Battle game coming soon!

Remittances

Agreed! Bitshares was heading in this direction with BitSpark, or some other name.

I’m here for the long run!! I’ll stick around but I think we will grow faster than people think.

Maybe yes. Maybe not. Probably not, I would say.
