Assisting Influencers to Join Web3 (Adjust as necessary)

SPK HackMD Web2 proposal.
PicsArt_12-08-05.34.46.jpg

My proposal to anybody interested in taking advantage of the idea displayed in the HackMD is that we can and should work together and collaborate in finding the best ways to shill this opportunity to the various people around the internet. From my experience being an individual who is shilling a controversial/revolutionary idea.. It is vary easy to brush off 1 person, or accuse them of being a self interested shill.. and as an individual its equally as easy to give up, and not look back for a year or more.
If we are working together and supporting each other though, it'll be a lot easier to pick ourselves up after a failure, talk about what went wrong, and to set our eyes on the next opportunity..

I hope that a person who is equally as motivated and interested in this idea will stumble across this blog and that we can start collaborating as soon as possible.

My plan is to team up with motivated individuals and to create lists of people (and their various discord communities) to contact and reach out to, in order to share this idea with.. and to work with them as long as necessary to inform them about hive, tokenized social media, and that comes along with it, in order to get them ready to make the move over to web3.. If you are interested, please leave a comment, tell me what discord you prefer to work in, and lets get to work!

I am worried about what kind of example this would set to new users. There are also concerns with influencers shilling coins that they are themselves invested in. Shill means con and I personally don't think any worthwhile project needs to be shilled, it stands apart on its own merits.

as for the opinion of new users.. all we can do is speculate as to what effect this might have, or what anybody might take away from this example.

I am all for creating a team if the mission is to encourage and reward users who promote the brand by creating quality content that inspires others to join Hive. However the message is very important because it is forever, and will be heard by critics and supporters alike.

Dogpiling is bad and unethical. It's also highly ineffective. If you look at YouTube comments, this is a common tactic used by scammers. People will recommend someone's service and a bunch of other people will reply to the comment with weird testimonials. This doesn't attract content creators and at best will bring in low hanging fruit on false pretenses. Just because you can get a group of people to rally around something, doesn't mean that's a good reason to bully people into doing something. It's also illegal to engage in these types of false advertising and deceptive practices so it will be interesting to see the outcome of all of this since Matthew is putting his name on all of this. It's easy to get behind the idea of having Hive grow and everyone prosper but a lot of people want easy answers and want to cut corners to get there which will have consequences. We need to engage in marketing in ways that won't mislead people or endanger Hive's reputation at large.

It should also be recognized that this tactic likens Hive to Bitclout and it's generally better to differentiate from existing use cases instead of just attempting to copycat an idea that already has a lot of criticism and backlash.

The problem is the existing Hive infrastructure and setup isn't really friendly for these creators to port over to Hive due to its 7 day window for payouts. Creators use YouTube because its gives them the ability to leverage their content long term which gives them residual income. We don't even respect the content creators that have already ported over because when their fans upvote content and then whales see that and deem the content to be overvalued they exercise their downvote which pushes content creators and fanbases away similar to the Patreon boycott. This has already happened multiple times and many whales come up with weird nitpicks such as it being multicast to multiple platforms without "personalizing" for Hive. It's easy for Matthew to express confidence in this idea because of the Dunning-Kruger effect but if you actually critically think about it at all then you realize how unethical, ineffective and likely illegal it is. It's also a centralizing force when you leverage 500k-1M in funds to a single party effort and if it were somehow successful would probably exacerbate existing issues on Hive which we should probably work out better before we scale up marketing efforts.

I know everyone wants Hive to grow but people need to realize the dangers of propping up people who are completely inept at marketing. There's fraud and false advertising issues as well as the chance it could be a massive waste of funds and completely ineffective. I expressed some problems with his concept and he couldn't even honestly engage with any of them. I am someone who is pro Hive and pro blockchain (although I'm not afraid to give an honest audit about how things could be done better) and he can't even engage with me. What are the chances he's going to convert someone on the fence or worse entrenched in existing platforms when he can't even handle being challenged by other people who want to see Hive grow ethically?

He doesn't know what he's talking about. It's all buzzword soup. I don't think he even has a strong grasp about what the differences between Web 2 and Web 3 are. Is this really someone you want as an ambassador for Hive? Someone who at the first sign of criticism just ignores and runs away like a coward instead of engaging ideas? Hive would be doomed if it were left up to him. Fortunately, there are better options for marketing than that. Support lordbutterfly or someone with a real plan. Not this fool
