Dear World: It’s a great time to Take the plunge and join a Crypto Facebook social media community called Hive!
Why? Well let me explain.
Almost everyone in the world has heard about Bitcoin, that Magic Internet Money, am I right?
Well, Bitcoin’s price dropped recently, and is selling at a 33% discount right now, is that crazy?
Yep, Bitcoin, the cryptocurrency or Magic Internet Money which was recently selling for $60,000 is on sale for $30,000 dollars a token.
But you know what else is on sale? Another Magic Internet Money called Hive! It’s on sale for 30 cents a token.
Now that sounds like the right price for someone new to Magic Internet Money to buy some and figure out how to use it, am I right?
Why would I want to learn about Magic Internet Money on Hive? Because Hive fixes many of the problems on Facebook.
#Easy
Well, because Hive is a Social Media Community like Facebook, so you already know how to use it.
#Fun
Hive is fun like Facebook, and you get great feedback from your audience like Facebook.
#Hive-is-Fresh
Facebook is a great invention, it has taught the world to reach out and touch each other over the Internet. The Internet is Magical. You take a picture in Africa of a Lion and your mom can see it in seconds in London, Paris, Rome, Tokyo or Seoul.
But Hive is a New Way to do this, and as a New thing, it has some important differences.
#Hive-is-different
Hive but it’s also different from Facebook in some very important ways. While Hive is enough like Facebook that you would be able to switch between them easily. You press upload, you press publish, Boom your stuff is on Hive!
Hive is a social media platform, which is like Facebook in terms of what you do, as in upload pictures, upload poems, stories or write about your passions or things you want to educate other people about.
But Hive is new, so it has new ideas.
There are four important differences between Hive and Facebook
.
#First, your content is owned by you, Facebook is great, but once you hit publish everything you uploaded belongs to them now. Hmmmm ...is that ok?
#Second, your account is owned by you, Facebook is great, but your account isn’t your account, it’s an account Facebook lets you borrow, and Facebook can take it back and close it, any time Facebook wants to do that.
That’s the “Old Way” Hive is new. Your account belongs to you.
#Third, you can give Likes on Facebook, and likes are Cool! They make people feel good. But on Hive your Likes are called Upvotes because Hive is more like a Democracy.
You own your content, you own your account, and you Upvote.
Hive is New, Hive is Fresh, Hive has new ideas!
#Fourth, on Facebook Likes are like Smiles or Pats on the back.
But on Hive Upvotes are like Tips, they make people smile, and they feel like a pat on the back, but they can also are worth *Cold, Hard Cash!
Hive has some new ideas... one of them is that if people really like your pictures, poems, stories or the stuff you teach them or stuff they learn from you... that has value.
Likes are great, I love them, but you can’t eat them.!
This is where we get back to Magic Internet Money, but don’t worry!
Yep, I call it Magic because any sophisticated technology looks like Magic when you don’t understand how it works, am I right?
But you and I don’t need to understand how a car, a microwave or even our cell phone works to use them, am I right?
This Magic Internet Money is the same way.
We don’t need to understand everything going on under the hood, for us to be able to put the key in and drive.
You can do this.
.
Make your Upvotes turn into Money
So in order for your Upvotes to be worth money, you buy some of the Brand of that Magic Internet Money called Hive and it shows up in your Hive Wallet.
You know what a wallet is, it’s a place you put things of value.
You click the button called wallet, then a page opens up and your Hive amount is there.
You then click the button called Power-Up and Boom Your Done.
Now you can upvote pictures, poems, and articles people post on Hive rewarding them a small fraction of the amount of cryptocurrency you bought.
Hive is new, Hive is Fresh, and Hive is on sale. Now is the time to learn more about Magic Internet Money.
Here’s where the magic starts: that reward does come from your wallet, it comes from the community wallet called The Reward Pool.
Yep, I call it Magic because any sophisticated technology looks like Magic when you don’t understand how it works, am I right?
But that’s really not important, because in you don’t need to understand how things work to use them, or for them to be useful. For example both you and I don’t need to understand how a car, a microwave or even our cell phone works to use them, am I right?
This Magic Internet Money is the same way. Plus, you can make lots of friends all over the world, and see and learn about places all over the world. Right from your computer.
