What’s next for Hive - Some developments that can propel us to the next level

Wow, what a week it has been for HIVE! First, we saw the listing of HIVE onto Huobi, followed by an insane rise in the price of HIVE over a 2-3 day period. Then we had the listing of HIVE on Binance, with a HIVE/USDT pair and HIVE/BNB pair. If that wasn't enough, Bittrex also added a HIVE/USDT pair, and in addition gave HIVE its first fiat pair of HIVE/USD.

Now, getting listed on exchanges is one thing, but building on this momentum is another thing. In my opinion, marketing and development needs to go hand by hand. It's been really pleasing to see the #posh movement takeoff, and increasing engagement on Twitter. Hive account@theycallmedan has been kicking it when it comes to marketing on Twitter. And the #posh engagement initiative is going to further this cause.

So what's going to bring new users/investors to HIVE?

In my opinion, there's a few catalysts over the next few months that can propel HIVE to the next level. The main one being SMTs or HMTs. I know we've waited forever for this, and many of us have probably given up on it. But I think I read somewhere from Hive account@howo that they are expecting SMT?HMT by the end of the year. I can't wait for it to be released.

Another development that could attract a lot of new users to HIVE is the development of a mobile app, and Hive account@dapplr is building this and much more. They are building a mobile app for HIVE that will integrate a lot of cool features. If you haven't checked them out, make sure to give them a follow.

Finally, there's the Hive account@openorchard project that Hive account@andrarchy and several x-Steemit devs are building. There's a lot of excitement around some of the open source tools they are building for HIVE, such as an encrypted messenger that can be plugged into any dapp on Hive.

So there you have it. There's a lot to look forward to over the next few months. And we are just getting started!

PS: If anyone can get Hive listed on to crypto.com, that would be incredible, especially if we can get HIVE on to their Crypto Earn program.
