It's quite interesting to see in 3rd perspective how the people connect together shell out their own money and create something like hive and then arrange meetups and also continue to bring promising features and the products. This is the spirit of the decentralized blockchain. There are some twitter influencers joining the hive and I am sure this would even boost the hive chain.
It is very interesting and it is a decent model for the future. The challenge is, convincing people to change their behavior from what they have been conditioned to do.
