Unimatrix 525 is all about collaborating on Hive support projects, tools, and strategies. Here's a marketing strategy that we've been brainstorming in The Pulse discord.

We've been looking at it all wrong. There are angry bees protecting the hive. It's a challenge to earn. That's the point.
If you can't cut it, get out of the hive.
Many people already in crypto approach Hive as if it's just another mining algorithm to crack. If you post the right combination of words, maybe you'll get paid. Of course, this is a poor attitude. But it's also understandable.
The reason this is understandable is because it's reasonable to assume that many "content producers" have never blogged before. They see the basic requirements and think, "That doesn't sound too hard."
Well, it is hard. Even good content isn't enough. If you're an expert blogger and just cross-post to Hive, that's not enough either. There's more to the "algorithm" than even just good content.
It's a social media blockchain. Therefore, there's a social aspect. Just cross-posting without engaging ... isn't enough.
You have to basically sweet-talk the actual stakeholders, and they are like angry bees. How do you crack that algorithm?
So that's the challenge of Hive. Do you direct message them? No. That's obnoxious. And there's no on-chain DM anyway. Do you name-drop them? No. That's also obnoxious. Do you try to fly under the radar and hope they don't notice you? Maybe.
So what exactly do you do? Well, that's the point. You have to figure it out on your own. There is no precise formula. No steps except: Join Hive anyway
