When I first heard about this, the main thing that struck me is that there was no logical reason for any of these issues in the first place. If a business owner can't be found/has no interest when someone tries to onboard a business, the person simply moves on to another business. If a business owner is interested but doesn't understand how Hive works, they and their staff should receive adequate training. Most HBD businesses don't process funds the same day; they hold HBD and don't convert into their local currencies until a sum builds up. Simply discussing this with someone who has B2B experience would be sufficient to set any onboarder on the right path.

In regards to the student project: A similar observation. Onboarding thousands of students without giving them some purpose on chain will never go well. This is another massive learning experience and requires a financial investment. It will ultimately cost more money than it can ever make any organizer in any way. Those who do onboarding of this type already know this. Using an undeveloped plan without correcting it is pointless as it won't lead to success.

What I don't understand is why any of the issues that happened did so. Doing something inaccurately and in a silo will never lead to long-term success, either personal or for Hive.
