Now that Steemit is over, are any Hive developers planning on working on a Hive alternative to Smart Media Tokens?

A Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal plugin that allowed publishers across the web to replace their comments systems with a Hive comment system where the Publisher could reward comments in Hive for engaged traction would bring a lot of new users of existing creative blogs and websites to this platform.

On any WordPress blog or website in order to comment you have to create a new user account so popular sites are onboarding new users all the time.

And existing comments systems like Disqus are either heavily censored by Disqus or can only give the website publisher income by placing ads that take their subscribers away from their site.

If popular websites could simply replace their comments system with a monetized Hive comments system then my guess is that many owners of websites would implement it.

This could be a great way to drive a lot of increased adoption. If any developers happen to read this I think it would be a great long-tail strategy to increase Hive users all around the web.

It is also a decentralized model. So many people in Crypto want big integrations to happen for their coin with platforms like Reddit, but that's a big horrendous corporate platform that censors everyone.

It would follow all good models of decentralization instead to spread content and engagement through the millions of small websites, forums and web-based communities out there, who want to be able to engage their followers directly on their own platforms.

Just food for thought.
