RE: It pays to write on Hive, not to promote Hive

in LeoFinancelast year

It's also just hard for the average Joe Blogger to even know where to start. 99.9% of people are already convinced that anything even within 3 degrees of separation from the word Crypto or Blockchain is a absolute pyramid scheme and nothing you can do will convince them otherwise, unless they too seek to exploit it.

For the 0.1% kinda curious and open on Twitter and such, well, how many people came here specifically to leave web2 social media? How many who have twitter want to bloat their feed with discussions of #hive every 5 minutes? How many can carefully craft the perfect marketing dialogue to avoid thoughts of scammy crypto in the minds of the normies?

I just think, once whittled down, there really isn't much opportunity or methodology to transition people from web 2 to 3. People are set in their ways. You need an actual expert team of future-thinking marketers to even attempt to approach it: It's just not as simple as knocking door to door selling lemon juice and hoping to find loyal customers for a good product.

Your comment left me thinking and I actually made a post 2 hours ago about this, I scheduled it because I already have two posts in the past 24 hours and well, posting it right now would not be good hive etiquette by OG rules so, I'll let you know when I post it. It actually uses AI as a tool, so perhaps getting your POV on the idea might be useful.

Twitter is hard, Hive is hard (if you go deep enough) and any other platform will be. Mastering a platform to make the most out of it is definitely not for the uninitiated, but at the same time, all the people in other platforms are also not experts. If we, as a blockchain, allocated say, 10% of the reward pool to reward content sharers to web2, perhaps that would be enough encouragement for people to learn how to share, how to promote and how to reach more people.

If one thing we've proven is that Hivers are willing to learn complex stuff in return for rewards. Learning about blockchian, crypto, wallets, keys, reward pools, liquidty etc etc is unbelievable for the average Twitter user, but it's the bread and butter for the average hive user. If there was a guide that got updated fairly frequently on how to game the Twitter algorithm and how to reach more people, and then we rewarded with a ton of rewards (which wouldn't be unfair considering what some content creators get allocated by publishing content that only the existing userbase reads) to the topX of the list, I am certain we'd get a few cheaters, but a ton of actual people who'd learn how to promote101 on Twitter.

In a matter of months we'd have experts on Twitter, dedicating to share content from other authors, focusing in spreading Hive instead of creating content. We've said countless times that we need more content consumers and less content creators. Well, we could start by encouraging below average content creators to become content sharers and still get a piece of the rewards in the process, these content sharers would in turn be in charge of reaching out to content consumers and top content creators.

And thus, another post idea (and perhaps a proposal or even hardfork idea) is born with the concept in the last line, lol
