I tweeted and asked the community what they most wanted to see in Hive moving forward.

I used the answers to compile a list

Marketing:

Nick_Krastev @svdsdragunov
What about curators that share content outside of HIve, let's say Facebook, twitter and maybe even Instagram. Reaching out the normie internet users. LBRY is also a great outlet.

GREAT question. I made contact with the operator of the Hive facebook page @eddiespino
@eddiespino/i-created-a-facebook-page-for-hive-help-me-grow-it

I also made contact with @torrey.blog operator of Trending on Hive Twitter https://twitter.com/HiveTrending

Members that were part of the transition to Hive have access to the https://twitter.com/hiveblocks account as well as https://www.instagram.com/hivechain/

I feel that members of the community that are active on other platforms, and that are familiar with those platforms, can spearhead those actions on their own and I will do what I can to promote their activity and support for their Hive posts.

Curation projects can work DIRECTLY with these accounts to further promote content outside the platform.

Where else will be represented? That depends on the community.

An easily accessible collection of high quality marketing material including not only finished products but the assets that made them so it can be easily remixed. I’ve already got a collection of Creative Commons bee footage put together for my Hive promos.

Wiki?

I think we should focus on onboarding/attracting new users, ones that aren't coming from STEEM, brand newbies coming from traditional social media. Plus training materials. I created video training materials for Whaleshare when I started there a year back. I'm waiting for UI to stabilize (and which UI will be primary to emerge) but then plan to create some training videos.

I think we need to work mass adoption and commerce opportunities simultaneously. the social network is just a method of distribution. In order for the currency to gain true footing, it needs to be a medium of exchange.

Hmm - I would be interested in hearing more about ideas for this.

What if we use services like HiveInvite.com to leave Hive user invites to content we find outside of Hive that should be here.

Good idea! I actually was happy to see that I was able to claim one account (2 if I only wanted 2% mana left) I will be looking into this more.

Update - Hiveinvite.com currently isnt working for me :(

This also makes me think about putting content as a fan page for someone. What if I created an account for someone as a fan page, and posted their content on Hive? What if there was some way I could lock their financial rewards away and it will only be released with some sort of authentication of the person? We could make communities for them and encourage further content on that person or group.

We should 1. focus on interacting with new users (they should get the maximum number of answers on one page - the Constitution of a beginner)

-Soft landing for new users

@Enjar
ATM documentation and lists of everything that is going on. The average user could still be struggling with some basic stuff. People are still asking me about hive as if the last month went right over them. From there people can work with their strengths when/where they can.

Do you mean something like http://steem.center?

Governance / Fork

Adding a Witness 'Vote Decay' feature so that old witness votes expire. Currently the top witnesses have a huge lead in votes following the move to have them beat justin sun on steem. Many of the voters may not log in to hive to change their votes. A Good feature regardless.

*During the discord chat, Vote renewal was also brought up.

Governability changes. Reduce witness votes to 10. Reset all witness votes and HDF votes to 0 so that fresh votes are cast without the dead weight of unused stake and give all witnesses a change. Adjust power down to 8 weeks.

Along the lines of mass adoption, I think changing the current reputation system is necessary. This was my suggestion: @moeknows/steem-proposal-account-rating-system There are other proposals as well.

We should 1. focus on interacting with new users (they should get the maximum number of answers on one page - the Constitution of a beginner) 2. The increase in the number of mobile interfaces 3. Attracting third-party advertisers with the subsequent distribution of awards to the entire community. 4. Creation of a universal lottery - the budget is formed from the minimum contributions of participants and most of it is financed from the DAO.

Allowing the Koreans who voted for proxy voters, before they knew about Justin Sun’s actions, to switch to Hive. There needs to be a neutral zone so people can transition if they wish to, or if people want to post on both chains. 3 years of SP powering down now. That’s tough.

@Moeknows
A second thing I would like to have considered (and it could be done now without a HF) would be the ability to have evergreen content rewards.

Carl Nash (@carlgnash)
well the first one is the most obvious, releasing SMTs before steem blockchain is an absolutely crucial must
