Despite all the negativity around, I'm still positive regarding HIVE... But, I don't think we can grow if we continue doing (or not doing) the same thing over and over again... As my perspective changed through the years, the same should happen with everyone, including HIVE itself...
Other projects/chains are evolving, and people ask for MORE... More dapps, more use cases, simplicity, etc. Just like all those young people at Young Art Fair or Slot Art Festival... Hive can be good as a promotional tool for them, but it can be much more! Their online marketplace, hangout place, maybe a payment rail, or something completely different...
As I said, I'm positive regarding all... And mostly because of AI... Yes, AI wasn't accepted well on HIVE (for content creation), but it can be very helpful in creating additional apps on top of HIVE, which can give more use cases to everyone... It's already happening, and it will happen more and more...
Thanks for all that you are doing! It would be great to see you at HiveOpenDays in Alicante! Your chat about the Water Direct movie on the main stage in Split was probably the best part of the HF! How about doing something similar in Alicante? :)
