Hello everyone,

as you may remember, I want to establish a "Web 3" donation system, that eliminates the "man in the middle" (details).

origin

It's been a while since I wrote my last report.

This is for several reasons:

No Curators

The account Hive account@anobel was created by me, Hive account@achimmertens, to donate Hive to people, that do good things and post about it on Hive. But for this, we need to find such people. This is more difficult than I thought. A curator needs to read a lot of posts until she finds an author, who is worthy of getting a special reward.
I was this curator, but I don't have the time to do this at the moment.
(I even thought of scanning the blogs with an AI and tagging the corresponding posts. But this is too expensive and time-consuming.)

No Money

I hoped to find people, who read my reports and get motivated to donate money to the Hive account@anobel account. You can read the wallet. All the money Hive account@anobel has got was sent to other Hive members, to people who did good things to other people. You can read the reports, about why they have got the money.
But trust is a hard currency and it takes time and public work to get it.
My account Hive account@advertisingbot2 creates reports and the rewards that it gets are sent to Hive account@anobel. So at least a bit of money comes in.

Troubles with Hive account@hivewatcher

My reports are made from a template. So they all look similar. This is spam according to @Hivewatcher rules. I talked with him/them on Discord and I got Hive account@advertisingbot2 and Hive account@achimmertens out of the blacklist. But I think Hive account@anobel is still in there. (Btw. does anyone know the url to the hivewatchers blacklist?).
As I still want to keep Hive account@anobel for this donation project, I think I need to talk with the hivewatchers again. But this depends on if this post here will get downvoted.

The Future

I don't give up. I want to make "Donation with Hive" a topic for my next LEX-Session (a training meeting with my colleagues). I hope to find some comrades for curation and donating.
The next reports will be more unique so that I fit to rules of spaminator. As they are not so often, it is not a problem for me to put in some free text. (But then I am the man in the middle :-( - So what.)
And I still send some small money to Hive account@anobel.

So stay tuned,

Achim Mertens
