Follow Friday: Top picks

in #hive3 years ago

The News

I guess the big crypto news this week is PolyCUB from @leofinance, but I have still not got a grip on all that defi stuff. I am sure some will do well from it.

Meanwhile the general crypto market is still looking uncertain on where to go. I think we just need to keep pushing the idea of Hive and what it can do for people. They have lots of options for how to earn. Not everyone is a blogger and some will prefer games or investment.

Talking of picks

I have posted many times about my quest to acquire more guitar picks for my collection. Today I received some from my friend @bozz in Michigan that he picked up at a local music store.

Picks

I am open to paying crypto for picks and to cover postage. Just let me know what you have first.

Friday Follows

  • Local musician @anna-newkey has joined Hive and posted. We play together at pub sessions and in a swing band.
  • I had another package this week from @double-eagle who is making music over in the USA and is part of the @risingstargame community.
  • Iranian musicians @davidfar and @sooud have a new rap song.
  • @epodcaster keeps pushing the idea of earning on the blockchain to her followers on other platforms. We have to reach beyond our current community.

The Doghouse

I have seen instances of people trying to cash in on the crisis in Ukraine by pretending to be there. The community is likely to crack down on that pretty quickly, but be aware. If you want to support people then the Team Ukraine community is a good place to start. Beware of fake information being posted. I did see that the RT account has gone quiet, but I am not sure if it is official. I am not anti-Russian, but I am against the aggression of the Putin regime.

The End

These are very uncertain times for the world, but a strong community like we have on Hive helps us get through. Support those who need it. It does not always have to be about personal profit.

Hive five!

@double-eagle(1/1) gave you LUV. H-E tools | connect | <><

LUV in the dark? The confirmation-reply may soon be turned off. This would be to conserve and replenish Resource Credits. Even while operating in the dark, your LUV command will still go through as usual. You can always monitor LUV in your wallet, at explorer A or at explorer B, or best, in real time at the luv-log channel on Discord.

Good point about being sure you are supporting people who are actually in Ukraine. Probably a good idea to just stick with the community you mentioned there. I am glad the picks made it to you safe and sound.

There has been a lot of Ukraine posts. I know some of the posters so can guess who's real. Its the Steemfest Charlatans all over again!

Always some chancers, but they will get found out.

@epodcaster keeps pushing the idea of earning on the blockchain to her followers on other platforms. We have to reach beyond our current community.

Thank you @steevc for the Follow Friday shout out. Once I realized just how amazing the blockchain is as a content destination I began telling folks about why they should consider it as part of their content creation journey.

So, since July of 2021 I've created informational videos on YouTube, a podcast series, a 31-day challenge in January, and a community on Twitter.

Doing that brought me to the attention of video, podcast, social audio hosts, bloggers, and conference organizers. As my goal is to demystify the blockchain as a content creation destination, these opportunities to share my ever-growing knowledge with the uninitiated have been most welcome.

Is is a slow slog? Yep. Do people look at me like I am speaking Klingon? Yep. But there are those fellow Web2 early adopters who speak a bit of Klingon themselves who are open to hearing more. So, I keep creating content, tweeting, speaking, and sharing as much as I can on Web2 about just how amazing Web3 is for content creators. Thanks for supporting the blockchain demystification mission. Cheers!

I really hope more of those creators can follow you here. They may soon see what the benefits are. We really just need a few key people who bring in their followers for this to take off. I think it's worth it to keep on trying.

Since you're not inclined to blow your horn on your process... I will.. I've listened to you describing creating content on the blockchain to people who know nothing about it and love how you distill it without getting into techno talk. It's not an easy task, but you've found a way to make it relatable.. nice going.

Thanks! That really means alot coming from folks like yourself and @steevc who are the real blockchain content creation pros. Y'all built the community that I am now so very glad to be a part of. Hive is awesome and welcoming because of folks like you.

takes someone with talent to make it relatable so others come and participate.
