RE: Let's Get More People On Hive

in Rant, Complain, Talk10 months ago (edited)

What's HAF? One of my gripes with it is the fact that searching for stuff doesn't seem to work. I've tried to find particular posts I read or even wrote months ago, and it's impossible to find sometimes.

No, I agree with you. Being able to feel safe about producing content knowing that we won't get banned, or have our accounts terminated is a great feeling. But, when I first joined it was for the money, because I knew nothing about the crypto/decentralised world. I do now, thanks to being here, and find the money is just a bonus.

In saying that though, money is a great motivator to get people in here, and when they discover more about the place that'll be what keeps them here.

HAF, from my understanding, is a continually updated database of the blockchain that Dapps can use to access information in a more streamlined way. I am no developer but I am hoping that this will be much more searchable than the blockchain and who knows maybe someone will use it to train AI to help find things. To me, it is one of Hive's missing features. There is so much data on the blockchain but it always seems to fall into the abyss after the 7-day curation window.

The money side of Hive is also a great incentive and I am hoping that a whole economy will develop so that people don't feel the need to just sell their Hive to turn it back into cash.
