I became a Content Creator as far back as the month of February, 2018. I started with Steem back then after I was Introduced by my elder brother who happens to find out about steemit before me. Fast forward to 2020, here I am on the Hive Blockchain after it was hard-forked out of Steem, doing what I know how to do best which is creating quality contents and building engagements on social media platforms.
Going by that, you should notice by now I have been leveraging the Cryptocurrency and blockchain ecosystem most especially the blockchain-based social media platforms like Hive for over 2 year now and I can boldly say I have a proper understand of how they work to some certain extent.
Going by the little experience I have, I think I should be able to different what is right from what is wrong with relation to the social media industry in particular. I've been on Facebook for over 5 years, I've been in steem for over 2 years and also I have been on Youtube for over 2 years and I think all of them tends to have similar issues which is Censorship.
The question now is, do you think Hive is the future of Social media platform?
Well, as for me I will say YES! Hive is definitely the future of Social media platform. Don't worry I will give you my reasons why I think Hive is the future of Social media platforms.
I've been on the Hive Blockchain since it was forked out of the Steem Blockchain few months ago . I have been leveraging the platform and I really do like a lot of things about Hive. To be sincere, Hive has proven to be one of the very best in the social media industry due to the unique features that it possess. Those features include:
Freedom of Speech
One of the things that interests me about Hive is the freedom of speech which is otherwise referred to as anti-censorship. It's no more news to most of us to see content creators being censored on other existing social media platforms like Facebook and YouTube with Steem joining the that path ever since the hostile take over of Steemit by Justin Sun. Hive have been a reliable and formidable force that is helping to sustain total freedom of speech in the social media industry ever since it was launched. Hive has grown to be a hub where everyone's voices is heard.
Equal Distribution of Wealth
Unlike other social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter where the founder takes all the income they generated from the platform, blockchain-based content creation platform like Hive have proven to be a fair platform that promotes equal distribution of wealth, thereby giving its users the ability to get rewarded on their contents. In order words, Hive allows its users to earn while they learn at the same time.
Decentralization
The fact that Hive is based on the blockchain is another important features that determines whether it has the capability of becoming the future of Social media platform. This is because the blockchain feature makes Hive to be fully decentralized, thereby taking power from the government or central authority and giving it back to the community.
Community Driven
The fight put up by the community after the Justin Sun hostile takeover of Steem has shown what exactly a dedicated and united community is capable of doing. Don't forget it is this same set of people we have on Hive. Hive is a platform by the people and for the people. The Hive platform is driven by the community and this is why we've been experiencing massive growth on here just within a short period of time that it launched.
Sustainable Tokenomy Model
The Hive Blockchain is backed by a strong cryptocurrency token known as the Hive and Hive Backed Dollars (HBD) which is sustainable and possess the various features of a good cryptocurrency. Those features include high demand for Hive in the market, its wide range of usability, fast transaction throughput and the powerful community behind it. These unique features is exactly the main reason behind the massive listing of Hive on various big exchanges like Bittrex and Binance within a very short after launch.
In conclusion, I don't think I need to say much again after all this long talk of the unique features that the Hive Blockchain possess. I'm sure you would agree with me that Hive is the best and the future of Social media platform.
I will like to know your opinion about this post. Do you also think Hive is the future of Social media? Kindly state with reasons below.

Well done @olasamuel for a great post. I was slightly disheartened a few days ago when I joined Hive by the lack of quality posts I was coming across, especially in the categories of tech and productivity, which I am especially interested in.
But having found my feet a little and learning to use the search function better, I am starting to come across some great content.
I recently left Medium.com, where the quality and layout of articles is amazing. I think that is going to be one of the key things that Hive will need to match in order to be successful.
All the items you raise are indeed important benefits and unique characteristics of Hive, but unless it looks good and is easy to use, then a lot of writers will look elsewhere.
I have been really impressed by the @peakd interface into the Blockchain. It gives a lot of the benefits of Medium and other high ending blogging platforms. All the developers working on it have done and amazing job and I am excited to see what ways the innovate once the post-fork madness settles down for them.
Since joining Hive, I have set up a couple of communities called Tech Flow and Productive Thoughts. I am hoping to use them to help drive the quality of posting upwards and make it attractive for non-blockchain enthusiasts.
There are certainly a lot of challenges to resolve before Hive becomes mainstream, but there is a huge hunger out there at the minute for free, democratic platforms that don't shut down people that they disagree with.
If Hive can catch the wave over the next couple of years it has got a chance to become the first big blockchain based social media platform.
