This could be a bit of a Catch-22, actually ... we have the ability, but we need the visibility ... but do we want tagalong visibility even though there would be a lot of it?
The things that Hive is doing between Keychain, V4W App, and Distriator are amazing in terms of moving value back and forth from Bitcoin and Hive and back again around the world are actually blowing my mind right now -- I knew Hive was on top of things in this regard, but I didn't know we were that far ahead of so many others! VSC is going to extend this functionality to many other crypto projects as well, sooner than anyone else, which is why the question came into my mind.
As I was looking at what Cardano is now doing with Bitcoin the other day, I discovered the Bitcoin Operation System project, and exactly how Cardano got on board as the first of many altcoins planned to use the BOS Grail Bridge so Bitcoin can be sent back and forth to Cardano.

Now, because I know about history and literature and the Bible, the history of pursuing the holy grail and the adoption of that kind of language makes me just a bit nervous. The Lord Jesus Christ actually left no holy grail, and the pursuit of such a relic speaks to a very particular mindset. Bitcoin OS thinks it is on a kind of messianic reconciliation crusade between Bitcoin and all altcoins. It would be wonderful in some ways, and Hive would benefit from the visibility because we are already ready to make moves ... we don't need as much from the infrastructure there, but would thrive as others in the BOS Network realized we can show them the way to actually get adopted.
But this is the deal: except for the visibility to the larger crypto world, do we need Bitcoin OS? We already have a system that is working -- Keychain, V4V, and Distriator, with VSC coming on line, can manage the things we need between Hive and Bitcoin, Solana, Cardano, and many more. We just need the visibility. But could there be a way to craft a partnership that makes sense for Hive with all it has to offer, and Bitcoin OS with all it has to offer?
I'm just putting the question out there ... there are far smarter minds than mine in Hive and Bitcoin that will need to decide this!
