If you find the world of cryptocurrencies fascinating, the Hive community is presented as a paradise for those seeking a niche where inclusion is the norm, and if you receive financial compensation for sharing your writings or for curating the ideas of others, interest in this system increases.
Hive is governed by a principle called content monetization, basically it is a system where members of the community generate an economic space based on creativity, manifested in the publication of articles, drawings, photographs and other forms of creative interaction paid with their own cryptocurrency (Hive).
Unlike other projects, in Hive cohabit diverse communities or tribes dedicated to make the cryptocurrency bigger through the interaction of their own token, which are associated to Hive forming small niches where the economy revolves around specific activities. Just as the LEO token acts in association with Hive through Leofinance to establish rewards around content linked to the happenings of cryptocurrencies, the POB token from Proof of Brain also hopes to do the same but in its own environment within the ecosystem of our great social network.
According to its creators, this token pretends to act simulating Bitcoin (BTC) within an environment that does not require mining machines (PoW) but the creativity of the person to generate the tokens, action that is called Proof-of-Brain and that gives its name to its portal associated to Hive. Like BTC this token also shows a supply limit of 21 million POB, so they aspire with this action that as more POB emerge these become more expensive.
It is important to note that for POB the important thing is the creation of content, obviously maintaining the principles that govern Hive in terms of generating original and quality publications to be rewarded by the community. It seems that POB wants to be a kind of reinforcement of Hive but integrating the BTC philosophy in this ecosystem, which they hope will have an impact on the attraction of the community members in this new and interesting token.
You can access the POB token by tagging #profofbrain in your posts or generating content directly on their portal, just like Leofinance you only have to enter your Hive password in proofofbrain.io and participate as you do here in the community. For now I am left with the doubt if like Bitcoin, the POB token also intends to program the so-called halving within its methodology of operation. For now I must say that I like this idea although it sounds quite pretentious to be compared with the king of cryptocurrencies, POB is presented as one more ally within the Hive family that will make this social network the center of a real revolution in the world of decentralized digital money.
