I had a similar conversation with someone yesterday about some of these topics! And this is always going to be an issue with a token that is used globally. The value is just going to be different across the board, and so the pressure to sell will have to be different also.
As long as a system is designed to have some checks and balances, it has a better chance of surviving long term. (the reason why I was talking about it - is because we are trying to actually develop that system! hahaha - and don't worry - it doesn't compete with Hive - it actually complements multiple platforms, so we are pretty freaking excited about it. And... I'd kinda love to get your perspective on it when we launch it very soon - because I like the way your mind works!!!)
@kenechukwu97 is a part of the project too. hehehe Of course, he's sworn to secrecy right now LOLOLOL but when the time is right - I think we'd love to hear from people in the community like you, to see if we are connecting the right dots!
And I agree with you - giving to others isn't categorically pity. If it's done right -it's generosity. And that's another principle that we have as a cornerstone of our project. But - mindful generosity. That's important.
Too many people give and give and give without researching, following up, making the connection, or even evaluating the REAL need. And that can actually be much more harmful than beneficial.
I love that you took the time to give your friend the 100% vote AFTER you spoke to her to see what her plan was and AFTER you knew that because of your friendship - you knew that it was a "good bet" to help her out.
Thoroughly enjoyed this post - and I am already creating a list of people that I really would love feedback from - when we launch our project! hehehe Hope you don't mind that you're on the list now LOL
FYI - soft launch is planned for June 26
Official launch is planned for July 25. (day before my bday! hehe) so you won't have to wait too much longer ... eeeeek! 😁 (my gosh that's nerve-wracking! hahahahaha i just realized its only 3 weeks away and i'm thrilled and terrified hahahaha)
Can you give me a hint about what this is about? I wonder if it's something that we could collaborate with at Cross Culture? I'm really interested although I have no idea what it is but we seem to be on the same page with many things :-)
I just said in a comment in my last post "I don't give charity, I give love and support. The difference is that I am not placing myself above anyone.
Looking forward to hearing more. Let me know when you can!
hehehee I'm positive that you will absolutely be able to benefit from the project!!!
I really think this has the potential to do some very cool things. and I will definitely be filling you in! I'm the kind of person that wants to get people excited about new ideas - but for this one - I'm doing everything DIFFERENT. hahaha
it feels VERY odd for me to be staying quiet hehehe
but... it feels right. We really don't want this to be one of those things that people overhype - and the wrong people come in and FOMO and then drain money, energy and morale.
We want to take it slow, build strong, build stable, and have the RIGHT people at the foundation with us to help it truly thrive well.
I do have a good feeling that i'll be sharing it with you as soon as I possibly can though hahahaha
because if @kenechukwu97 vouches for you hehehehe (and he does!!) and @kemmyb also - (she's part of our team) and even others that I see are like-minded... I have a feeling that this is just on the right track! hehehe
I promise - i'm NOT trying to drive you crazy with secrecy - but I also promise - when the time is right, I will be so happy to reveal it to you! its coming very soon !
(and yes - i'm still peaking at hive notifications hahahaha - but i'm getting a LOT done with my presentation so I'm giving myself breaks hahahaha)
I know how cross culture works as a community and l'm sure that it will also benefit from everything that is forthcoming. What l like the most about the community is that it has a founder that is not just drawing plans and expecting people to fall in line and do what is written on paper
@selfhelp4trolls is very active in his community and he has also helped to keep people excited about engaging qualitatively in other communities.
I'm patiently waiting for everything to fall in place and I'm sure that you will brief him about everything as soon as possible.
I'm not that active, I am really busy with IRL stuff, But I believe in everything I say, and I don't like dry or phony stuff!
Also, we don't have many plans! We had a lot more plans but I didn't want it to feel like work for myself or anyone else and it was way too much for me to handle even with my current team who is awesome. What I do have is awesome people around me who keep the place lively and (hopefully) the right attitude and ideas to attract more awesome people to befriend, as we seem to be doing right now <3
Exactly... I've also been in smile server with Tripode and Starstrings working with them as a contest validator.
There is no doubt about the team. They do alot and it helps to keep things flowing in the right direction. You are a busy person but your passion and skill is aligning you with the right set of people. That on its own is laudable ✅.
I know that a lot of great things will be happening in hive with people like you being involved.
Great, they are really good at keeping people here and getting them to have the right attitude. I'm glad you connected with them. Seems you are already quite active everywhere!
Hahah... I connected with them and l'm glad that l did although there are alot of loopholes but it's kinda beyond their power so, we do what we can in our capacity.
As for being active, l just started being active some days ago.
I started my writing journey in Uptrennd but it was shut down some weeks ago. That took a huge toll on me and affected my writing skill and creativity. I was inactive here for 2 Months but l decided to break out of that darkness and focus on everything that has to give me a better tomorrow.
I lost somethings but l used that period to learn about Hive Engine and also interact with people alot so, l want to believe that l'm back and l hope to make up for the lost days.
Thanks again for your grand support. You've been enlightening me since my first week here. Thanks
Hahah.... I'm excited to see that you've already seen @selfhelp4trolls . Remember want l said? This account and @whatamidoing are from the same critical thinker. I got charmed by his sincerity the first week l came to hive and l can remember telling you about him 😂.
And now, the project is fast approaching. I'm loving this and l've tried to keep myself off your DM for a while so that l won't end up in a massive suspenseful mini cycle 😂😂. Curiosity is already wrecking me and l'm loving it because everyday is coming as a good day and the whole plan will be a reality soon.
Let me take my time to read in between the lines of this post. That's how l like to digest his thoughts 😂.
I come here to read, loved this article as it spoke A LOT to me and I am thinking, @dreemsteem should see this... Not knowing you are here already! 😂....
.
As for @kenechukwu97,....
hahahahahahahaha yes!!! LOL
I've read several of his - and its so in alignment with what we're doing right????
I CAN'T WAIT FOR OUR MEETING TOMORROW!!!
Hahahah... EKG ✌️
You've got to give me some share of your Ego Roro.
As for the posy, l read it jealously and l'm glad that l did 😋
hehehe yes I remember you telling me they were one in the same! hehehe
I am also really connecting with his style of writing! and you know connection is high up on my list. hehehe
yes - i know you've been staying away while we work! I appreciate it - but I so miss you. But believe me - you've come up in conversation SO MUCH with Blue hahahaha I think he knows how much I love you - for sure!
so no need to read between those lines. hehehe just know that you are so loved and so missed and I can't wait to get this project up and rolling already! hehehe 😄
I'm already looking forward to tomorrow's meeting. This whole thing started as a dream but turned to a Dreem and this Dreem is becoming our reality.
With all the brain work that has already been in place, we just need to pull ourselves together to be able to point out any place that needs adjustments. We will be in our toes ✌️
