I Believe In Hive, Do You?

Over the past week, while everyone was panicking over the fall in the price of Hive, I was still engaging in my hobby and writing my usual posts!

I get it - it's inevitable that some people get demoralised when they see their net worth in their Hive wallet fall to lows after lows - but my personal take is it's really an overreaction. The Hive community still here. People are still writing, commenting, and even hosting contests like this one, by @galenkp! I thought it is a timely gesture to have this reflection because it shifts the fixation of the price of Hive into something that is more fundamentally based, which is what Hive is all about.

I joined Hive on 25 Sep 2021, which means I have been on Hive close to 3 years already!

It's not hard to talk about the positive aspect - if I could sum up in two words, it would be personal growth.

I have learnt a great deal over this period:

  • honed my writing skills by writing consistently and frequently, as well as different genres across various commmunities
  • practised my creativity by doing story telling and thinking hard on making my content interesting to cater to different audience
  • learnt new skills, e.g. I had to learn how to do thumbnails for the first time for my posts!
  • gained more awareness on what is happening in other parts of the world, rather than just relying on mainstream media
  • forged new friendships with wonderful people here (you know who you are!)
  • learnt so much about cryptos and blockchain
  • last by not the least, earned some pocket money to buy myself coffee (I called it the Coffee Fund in my quarterly updates!)

And that's all I have - keeping strictly to the word limit! :P

Thanks for reading!

I also still believe in Hive. It is a shame that at the moment I don't have enough spare money. But I hope to make some art sales soon and have more money for buying Hive.

Hive has a long way to go, it's normal for people to feel scared when bear markets come in, but beyond all that, I think the interaction with the people in the hive is one of the most attractive things I find.

It is very good that you have learned about hive, and that you make it known to all your friends and acquaintances, explaining its benefits, which go far beyond being a microblogging network (which is where most people get stuck). , this goes much further, it is very deep and amazing.

Thanks for the kind words! Yes, you summed it up very well! I agree that it's quite amazing and that's why I am still here almost daily after more than 2 years! Cheers!

I believe in hive, but when life throws stone.
One has to make sure the stone doesn't touch or injure you.

I powered down even before this fall that i didn't quickly know about happened, because one still has to survive in life.

Which hive is always my saving grace.

I believe hive will bounce back and i will continue blog.

Many people still don't realise, when the price of Hive is low, it's the best time to write. For the same value post reward, say $1, you get more Hive rewards when the price is low eg 20c = 5 Hive, 25c = 4 Hive. Just keep creating content

There’s certainly a lot of focus on the price right now but that’s not what we should be doing, we should double down on writing, engagement and being active! Historically this is the best time to be on here because people quit thinking it’s done. I’ve been staging to get a bunch of hive purchased and myself even more stake!

I’m glad that hive has had many wonderful impressions on you, it’s truly been remarkable to see it all. We’ve been able to improve so many things for so many people here it’s so cool! There’s a lot of passion here and it shows. Congrats on your upcoming 3 year anniversary I can say that!

You are totally right on this! I wouldn't say I am doubling down, but for me, it's just business as usual as I treat it as my little hobby during my free time, to wander around on Hive, be it posting or curating.

And yes there's a lot of people with a lot of passion and ideas on Hive. I am not visionary myself but I try to show some support, be it delegating HP/RC, or buying some of their tokens, to play a supporting role.

Thanks for dropping by and the kind words! Time flies and it's almost 3 years indeed. Definitely will be around for many years to come! :)
