How would you explain Hive

keithtaylor 11 days ago

Hive is a decentralised global network of computers that anyone can access or operate to provide uncensored, fast, resilient data storage and retrieval for communities and individuals.
It can run games and other specialist applications, but is mostly a replacement for Instagram, X, Facebook, YouTube, and other social media.
On Hive, you own your posts, tweets, and pictures from which you might choose to earn cryptocurrency as long as you are prepared to research, understand, and accept the financial risks.

I always try to explain that Hive is a decentralized social network, meaning that it has no owner or company behind it, and that you can make long posts, which are blog-style, or quick posts, which are microblogs, and monetize them without needing many views or anything like that.

Hive can be(come) a great gateway to the crypto world for the regular people. It can be the crypto world's "training mode", similar to the same concept we find on centralized brokers, before you play with real money. Hive can be many things, but it's a good place to start.

You are right. Since it's free to transact and you can 'earn' your capital, it could be a very nice first playground to test crypto.

Hive is a family, with all the pros and cons that come with it. And it’s also a blockchain — with everything that follows from that as well… )) No one promises it will be easy, but it’s absolutely worth it!

It is like Facebook/X but provides the ability to earn crypto with every post. It also has various games that you can play for fun and also earn crypto. Fun, exciting and the Social Media of the future.

Hive is a website where you can write and interact in a same way that any social media and still owning everything that you produce. But everything is based in a digital coin called Hive. The more Hive, the stronger your “likes” become.

A lot of people use the term decentralisation but it often doesn't ring a bell to the people hearing it.

Hive is a decentralized blockchain, and transactions on the chain are free if you have resource credits from staking Hive. The central part is a social media blog where people can blog about whatever they want.

This is not as simple a question as it seems. Because if it were, then there would be no need to ask this after so many years. The concepts mentioned here - decentralization, blockchain, web3, crypto, are unclear to most people. It is undoubtedly a social network that allows communication and sharing of various media content.
I think the best explanation, although from 2021, is this: https://jryze.me/hive/

Since my main use of Hive is its social aspect, I will focus on that part. I would tell him that Hive is the place where you can express yourself freely. Like a conventional blog, but where users own our content and we don't have to pay for storage. I would add that, in addition, there is a whole universe behind it in which to immerse yourself, from games to finance.

That's a point that a lot of people don't realize. Having a blog or another web presence is normally not free...

A decentralized network that allows people to communicate and earn rewards in the process. Sadly, changes have made it more centralized giving certain people more power to control everything without even consulting with the masses. Hive's speed and proof of stake are a novel concept that is so underutilized, so many more games and projects should be building here. We really need to get the word out!

This was the topic I talked to Bro Bum before he became a mad king. I told him if he wanted to promote something, he must be able to describe it in the most simple way.

I always say that Hive is a social network like Instagram, but one that pays you to post content that you previously posted for free on Instagram. I always start from this point, and then go on to show that Hive is a giant ecosystem with several projects and the gateway to the world of cryptocurrencies.

Hive is a social media platform where people write and post.
You can earn cryptos such as Hive tokens and HBD (somewhat like a USD stablecoin) by voting other people's posts and also receives votes from others.
Hive is also a blockchain where there are games, projects, etc all built within.
