I think of HIVE as the cryptocurrency and Hive the ecosystem that has all the dApps and the social side to it.
I know it is a but clichéd but I stay on Hive for the social aspect. I don't stay on HIVE as a cryptocurrency, as an investment it really is rank rotten. There are far too many things going on that I cannot change and they affect the price. Mind you alot of those people also affect the social side of Hive, in so far as driving people away.
I am an old Scottish fcuker who loves learning, I even have a Masters in Knowledge Management and worked/visited 69 countries and you cannot stop learning from different people and cultures.
I like building long-term relationships with interesting people, and I am always trying to better myself to learn from my mistakes.
Something great people should strive to do!
Interesting post and with respect to Hive and the changes or actions .. as we say in Scotland "He that will to Cupar maun to Cupar."
You've been to 69 different countries. Each with its own culture.
Hive is a social network; it will have the same problems as any society. But it also has its own developing culture.
We don't all think the same way about everything.
Tribes also have their own cultures; some certainly accept behaviors that other tribes don't.
That is why I am here. I want to make money yes but it's not just for the gains. It is also for the social aspect. I comment and that is actual words. But we also can communicate through upvotes, downvotes, delegations, etc. It is all very interesting to the point it is almost bizarre.
I think as an investment people just think about HIVE in a weird way. As a crypto where people try to time tops and bottoms it is just too unpredictable. Splinterlands is a great example of how you can make a lot of money with HIVE though. Build something successful on HIVE and leverage a big stake to promote your game and retain users. Not everyone can/will be successful trying and most businesses fail anyways (sorry if this comes off as a bummer lol).
First time I have seen this phrase. I think we could use more of this attitude around here.
I love learning too by the way. It is a big factor in why I like building relationships with interesting people. People from all walks of life can be interesting and can teach you a lot... especially if you speak different languages and come from different cultures!
