The News

Everyone got excited about $BTC hitting another milestone. I do not include it on my graph as it would mess up the scale. The coins I include are all in a similar range. $HIVE has almost doubled in the last month and that ought to inspire some confidence. It is still ranking very low though. The 'legacy shitcoin' actually ranked higher for a while due to having more tokens.

The crypto world is crazy though. I saw this story of some kid making a load of money from a memecoin he created. Those things should have no value, but people leap on anything that might make them a quick profit. It has nothing to do with utility and I am staying away from that stuff.

Check out the update from @gadrian for more news around crypto and Hive.

Friday Follows

  • I had interesting discussions with @makerhacks and @detectblock around earning online and the state of Hive. We should be talking about the problems as well as the benefits.
  • Talking of problems, @louis88 posted about a way of detering some spam on Hive that would need the front ends to act.
  • @thetroublenotes are a multi-national band who have just been on tour around the USA. We have some great musicians who deserve your support. As well as voting them up you could also look out for events in your area. I have seen these guys live in London.

These folk get a share of the post rewards and comments can benefit from @commentrewarder.

The End

I did not find something for the Dog House this week, but let me know of any suggestions you have.

I will be producing a fresh #BritList tomorrow. I am always looking out for people to add. We need to get some of the inactive accounts to return.

We are nearing the end of another year as crypto is seeing some interesting developments. I know some think that the new US government will help it, but I fear they will do a lot of damage in other areas. People want to be better off, but we know wealth does not always get well distributed and we need a decent planet to live on.

Hive five!

Thanks for the mention and I'll take a look at Louis' post too for his idea on how to deter some of the spam on Hive.

Bugger no dog house list!

Sorry, but I don't always find something.

LOl,

I shall have to check out the spam deterrent idea. Always good to have more options

Downvotes tend to be our main weapon, but it may take more to deter the persistent offenders like that dipshit that vomits their comments everywhere. I have most of that muted.

I mute those ones too. Definitely anything that gives an alternative to just downvotes is good. Especially in the cases he voted where they don't really do any good

Dang, that's pretty depressing to see TRON spike like that. I guess at least it fell back down. I'm not a fan of anything Justin Sun related.

Likewise. The guy just loves his own publicity. It's funny that he never did anything with that social platform he bought.

That hive pump didn't feel like as much compared to others (SPS, LEO, BLURT, etc.), but seen on a chart it shows very well how the other HIVE ecosystem tokens have just stagnated completely. Leo has moved up a bit, but honestly it felt to me like LEO had gone up more than HIVE.

Maybe it's because I'm more used to seeing HIVE above 0.3$ than below.

Anyways I think right now is the time we need to be spreading the HIVE name around interwebs to gain new users. And once we start seeing new faces pop up, then we will be ready for the ALT season.

The LEO team are pretty active and seem to get people posting stuff, but it's not something I am too involved with.

I've seen the highs of $HIVE and I hope it gets somewhere. It needs to go at least 10x to get near the top 100 coins.

I think it's always a good time to be active here as you can keep accumulating.

That bit issue is quite a serious one - getting organic traffic from search engines is the cheapest, and possibly even most successful marketing we could have. People find content the care about, and soon realise the author got paid for publishing it. So did people commenting on it (often, not always, obviously). That’s the way to spread the word.

Great rebound from Hive, it is proving itself as the comeback kid!

Well, I've arrived on Hive when it was at 0.30, so this is ground zero for me. But I can imagine how frustrating must have been seeing it going so low. Patience and consistency and we'll go up much higher, I believe 💪

I've seen a huge range of price. Just have to ride it out.

@steevc, I paid out 3.186 HIVE and 0.000 HBD to reward 10 comments in this discussion thread.
