Yesterday was really a lovely experience, thank goodness the earthquake didn't affect anything, and after lunch the work really picked up. Thanks to my wife @ecoinstante, I have some great evidence of all the success we reported yesterday afternoon!
After splitting an expensive redbull with @ecoinstante, we got to work, the team here is really professional, full of love, energy and knowledge of HIVE.

I started doing what I do best, going out and being social. My hook was working really well - 'Hey, do you use social media?'. I even started pitching the other stands, that they should use a Hive blog for SEO and to document their entreprenuerial journies.

HIVE has something for everyone, its an ecosystem not just a blockchain, so sales is more complicated, but for a good listener it makes it even easier. I was pitching the NFT artists, the instagram models, the crypto entrepreneurs, even the normies. We signed up so many new accounts!
I even gave some love to the event employees who nobody was paying attention to!

I guess anybody can look good with with a pro photographer following them around!

I got mixed up with the local journalists covering the event and recorded a 15 second spot advertising Hive for local radio.
This again thanks to my wife who is herself a journalist and master of making things work from the shadows.

I was surprised how well my other hook was going over in this crowd - 'We forked the founders!', and many people were nodding along as I explained that Ethereum was in for a rough surprise with PoS, when they realized that 10 wallets control 90% of the governance.
We are pioneers on Hive, and hook after hook, I was continously happy to see people impressed by who we are and how far we've come.
Today we are getting ready to head back, we stayed late last night helping trouble shoot some new accounts, it was work but it was fun work, especially seeing how eager new users were to make things like 3speak work - check out @brandgonzalez from last night! He was paid event staff but also a musician and poet and couldn't resist getting things working 'de una'!
This morning we shared breakfast with other Colombian Hivers @sofiaquino98 , @rafaelaquino and @aurodivys -

The team is already there and we are soon on our way to keep repping Hive to an eager crowd of crypto-curious latinos!
