The Introduction of cryptocurrecy can be traced back in 2008 which was also a time of the largest financial crash in history. The Bitcoin whitepaper was released and launched the first fully decentralized peer to peer monetary system which was free from governmental and bank intermediation. Subsequently, other cryptocurrecies were introduced to give an opportunity for people to be in charge of their fund and Invest profitably.
However, cryptocurrecies have their Shortcomings. The value of cryptos is not stable and so, could go down in value at any point in time; this could result to a loss for the investor. Also, cases of fraud and theft have been recorded which has led to people loosing their funds to hackers.
In today's world, many blockchains and platforms have keyed into the idea of cryptocurrecies, giving owners the opportunity to be in charge of their funds and make investments whenever they deem necessary. The native platform is not an exemption, as it has included digitalized money to its platform.

Having a platform as native that brings people of similar interests together in one community would bring about opportunities to create value like never before. When there is a collective energy focused towards achieving a common goal, there will surely be positive results.
IMPACT OF HAVING AN ECONOMY THAT ALLOWS THE COMMUNITY TO ACCOMPLISH ITS GOALS
Non- accomplishment of goals is one major factor that could hinder an economy from attaining development. Most People do not pursue their dreams because of one challenge or the other and would rather settle for jobs that do not go inline with their interest because of hardships resulting to an economy not harnessing its full potentials which can actually bring a turn around.
HOW THE NATIVE PLATFORM WILL CHANGE THE WAY COMMUNITIES ARE ABLE TO START AND GROW
When like minds work together they know whatever sacrifice they make to ensure their dreams is more sustainable will not be in vein because their attention is geared towards sustainability and development. This is the opposite of those who are not of like minds, instead of looking for ways to develop the community, everyone might be fighting for one selfish interest or the other which could lead to disagreement, fights, stealing and obviously a fall of such business or group because there is no common goal or interest. With native, members understand the fact that the community growth depends on their commitment and would not easily let misunderstandings to break them, rather, they would look for ways to ensure the community is been improved and is productive on a daily basis. This will bring a level of consciousness that the progress and sustainability of the community depends on them which will greatly change any selfish mindset that could lead to an end of their communities.
A COMMUNITY I LOOK FORWARD TO START ON NATIVE
My passion for music cannot be overemphasized. Starting a community of musicians and instrumentalists coming together would be amazing. Meeting fellow musicians would enable me learn from them. Also, we can collaborate to release songs, plan our concerts and invite people to be entertained for a token which will be used to fuel the community. I would really love to connect with musicians from different parts of the world and i believe native would make this a reality because it has all the features to make it come through.
