It's no news how much drama has unfolded since the purchase of Twitter by the flying car expert Elon Musk. His acquisition came with the sacking of some executives and some other updates. Musk had announced that he was going to be charging blue tick users monthly for a right to retain their verification.
A blue tick symbol next to a username is normally for high-profile figures and is currently free. But Elon has stated that he'll start to charge $8 and above monthly for a chance to retain that verification. While there's been a lot of mixed feelings about this upgrade, some celebrities have started to leave twitter and some like the popular Horror author Stephen King has voiced out that Twitter "Should pay me".
Some advertising companies too are begining to question Musk methods as the blue tick gave people chances to differentiate real and trustworthy accounts from others but now that a price has been put on it, just anyone could get the blue tick.
where does Hive come in?
The beauty about Hive is that it is a social media platform and a lot more, you could do almost anything within the Blockchain and still reach a lot more people. Hive is one of the best places for businesses to advertise their products and this comes free of charge. There's no need to pay and the best thing is that you even get payed to advertise.
It sounds so surreal, but Hive is bridging the gap that Web2 hasn't managed to and it does this without and fees. You even get a chance to own an Hive account for free. Onboarding has been made a lot easy using any of the frontends, Leofinance.io, Ecency and PeakD.
Hive gives users a chance to gain a lot more than they can expect. You get a chance to make publications and get paid, you have a wide variety of communities to connect with and push your product forward and if you're looking for quality information about any type of topic Hive still got you covered. There's no blue tick needed but the more you build your stake in the Blockchain and make connect, you'll be surprised how smooth your journey would be.
I've made more money being on Web3 than I did on Web2 and it gets worse when you imagine the amount of time and energy being wasted doing nothing on Web2 apps. Hive is the future and i hope it gets the sort of recognition it deserves, but until then, we keep doing the best we can to move this space forward.
