My project called @aliento is growing at a good pace, but I still think that I can improve it to grow even faster. In this post, I'm going to share some of the milestones and also share my concerns.
I'm happy with how things are going. The project has almost 75k Hive Power summing up all the delegations. We are only a few days away to reach 20k Hive Power in the account without counting delegations.
We are generating over 300 HIVE in curation rewards every week. Our APR is between 18 and 22%, and we are supporting a lot of users and communities. We have the support of @theycallmedan and @threespeak.
@Aliento doesn't have a community in HIVE. We are a project that supports communities and users that need help in HIVE. Some of the communities or projects that we are supporting or that we are working together are:
- Hive Mexico
- SMILE
- Blogging Challenge
- Motherhood
- Hive Motors
- Full Deportes
- SoundMusic
- 3Speak
- HispaPro
- CelfMagazine
- VotoVzla
- Rincón Fotográfico
- Develop Spanish
- HivePosh
- HIVE-CON
I may be missing one or two, but these are the main ones. We also have an account called @aliento.leo, which has about 10k LeoPower and is focused on supporting the Hispanic community in LeoFinance.
At the moment, we have a lot in our hands, and in the last few days, our VP has been lower than usual, but this is because we are supporting more initiatives, and we have given more votes than expected.
If we can find a balance, soon we will be able to support more projects, and we are also looking for new delegators. The only thing that concerns me is that right now; we are not doing power-downs in @aliento. We rely on the weekly HIVE that we get from @eddiespino and @grisvisa. If we got a huge delegation, we might have to do something to pay all the delegators, but I think that will be an excellent problem to have.
Yesterday we made a post announcing that we finally have a bot that will take care of the transfers. @enrique89 coded it, and it worked perfectly. We were both thrilled with this. You can read about the bot here.
Feedback and Recommendations
If you have a successful project similar to this one, we would love to read your recommendations. I'm trying to do things differently, I'm not making curation reports, and I'm not leaving copy-paste comments. We are trying to grow organically and to make good alliances.
Our goal is to reach Orca status this year. I think we can make it by Jun or July if we continue to grow like this. We would like to posts more videos and more tutorials, and we will also love to make campaigns outside of Hive to bring new users. Have our system or series of videos where we can teach someone from zero to hero.
If you were in our position, what would you do? Which would be your curation criteria? How would you attract new investors in and out of HIVE? Would you upload Tiktoks about HIVE, LeoFinance, and other Dapps and communities?
Talking about TikTok, I have uploaded some videos, but I haven't been very persistent. Here are some screenshots of the videos I've made:
Every time I see someone talking about crypto in TikTok, I get the feeling that I'm missing out on an excellent opportunity to shill HIVE. The two times I have tries it, I have received good responses, and I have made some good contacts. One of the reasons I haven't been consistent is that I don't have the time to adopt a new user. We all know that the learning curve is a little complicated. That's why I want to create a system or tutorials for new users.
To wrap this up, I want to say that I'm happy. I want to grow this account, and I also want to help many users, a win-win scenario. Thank you for reading my thoughts, and if you have some feedback or recommendation, please leave a comment.
