A Quick Look At The CTP Project (ClickTrackProfit)
When I made my "Evergreen List of Communities on HIVE" post last October, I kept it pinned on my profile and update it when I hear from community leaders that are well respected across the network. This was so that anyone who is new (or even more experienced) to HIVE has a point of reference to find a community full of like minded people that would interest them!
At the end of October 2020, @jongolson left a comment to include the CTP Community on that post and so I thought I'd give a quick overview of all I'm aware of what's going on as there's plenty of activity at the moment!
ClickTrackProfit
As you can see from his comment, CTP is all about entrepreneurship and bringing business to the blockchain and breaking down complex topics into simple ones. This second point resonated with me as that's what I like doing with the Havey's Guides and my general ramblings about crypto on my blogs - keeping complex things simple!
Hive Guide
The Hive Guide that's mentioned is a free-to-register online training course for anyone who wants to learn about Hive - just register with an email address and away you go:
ClickTrackProfit
The ClickTrackProfit site is a dedicated resource to simplify affiliate marketing to help entrepreneurs across a variety of industries and provide training to them.
HivePay
If I recall, this is a WordPress plugin that was developed by CTP to faciliate payments for those who want to sell merchandise to Hive followers and offers a variety of payment options in HIVE and H-E tokens, as well as other crypto.
CTP Token
This is the token that backs the whole project which currently operates on a "Proof-of-Brain" type interface where content that's posted on the site or with the #ctp tag can earn tokens if it fits their criteria - check the CTP Talk website here. Much like how we use Hive, LEO and other tokens, you can stake them and vote on content for curation rewards.
CTPSB Token
There's a second token with CTP called CTPSB - Swarm Booster that I heard about yesterday which I wasn't sure about so I asked and got a response that answered everything!
So my understanding of the concept is, @ctpsb is the "curation account" a bit like how @leo.voter works where content chosen by the curators is supported in HIVE and in CTP. This then allows the HP grows with curation and author rewards and it all compounds over time. That HP can also be used to claim account tokens of course so more entrepreneurs and businesses can join HIVE through CTP seamlessly. The CTPSB token can just be held and it will gain value over time - pretty cool!
You can delegate HP to @ctpsb to earn weekly CTP tokens - last week had an APR of 35% according to the latest report although this is variable - that's impressive!
Staking Contest
At the moment (until 22nd February 2021), there is a staking contest going on where everyone is being encouraged to stake their CTP tokens with a prize of 100 CTPSB tokens to be distributed out across all who enter - just head on over to the link earlier in the sentence and register your interest, stake CTP and good luck!
Brofund Support
I check the announcements in the @brofund discord since I joined a few months ago and when I saw this announcement from @raymondspeaks, there was an immediate buzz around CTP and hopefully Jon was able to breathe properly after reading that bit underlined in red below!
I'll certainly be keeping an eye out to see if Raymond actually does appear in CTP's next video haha! Joking aside, getting the nod from Brofund is quite a big deal and I'd say it lead to a lot more eyes on CTP and the project as a whole since. Jon has been doing a pretty epic job with the project and has been through a lot over the last few years - if any of you read his "Started At Zero post then you'd get hit in the feels as well.
Final Thoughts
Personally, I feel CTP is still flying under the radar on HIVE at the moment but they are really building some incredible tools and have their target market nailed down. If you just follow Jon and CTPSB accounts, you'll feel the good vibes like with Leo too - when you see updates and things getting rolled out regularly, you can't help but feel inspired and it's well worth keeping an eye on.
It's definitely hard to keep up with all that's going on with every project so I apologise if I'm missing some other intricacies of CTP, please let me know in the comments so others who read this can learn more about the project! All the best to CTP - 2021 is proving to be an exciting year all round!
Have you come across CTP already? Are you getting involved with their contest? Let me know in the comments below!

Appreciate this man, thank you so much for the awesome review of our little tribe and project!
It's been quite the journey so far, and we're very excited for 2021 :)
No worries mate - hope I managed to get all the important aspects in a nutshell! Keep up the great work and looking forward to your feature on Crypto Salad!
CTP has so much going on and a active community. Just give them time and then we will see them explode!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah man! Definitely agree with you, strong core community and driven leaders is a great foundation to move forward with in 2021!
Yes, I'm getting as much CTP as I can ;)

You're not the only one 😀
Thanks a lot for this amazing presentation of our community! It's nice to see how more and more people are interested in our project. The additional eyes bring more demand for the token and the increase of price brings again more attention. We are seeing a positive circle and the best things are still in development :-)
You're welcome and hope I covered all the important things regarding CTP! Yes, all of those points are great things and I feel it will all feed in and grow as the positive cycle grows out! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with next in development! If you have a roadmap then feel free to share it on the comments so people can see it (I'm not really too involved on Discord) 😃
CTP is a great community and a good investment I think. Lately I have just been adding and staking slowly as I think this tribes token will have some decent value. Never knew about CTPSB and thanks for all the info.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah man, I think you'll do well holding CTP tokens too! I've been slowly and surely building things up with the delegations and posting on the tag. Will probably start adding to the stake through the market place and see how it all goes in this exciting year! Happy to have shed some light on CTPSB

This was an awesome write up. You got me. I bought myself a bunch of CTP and delegated. It was on ( and off ) my radar but this post of yours made me feel really good about this project. Even though this is not necessarily my forte or interest ( content wise ) I feel it's a more than decent project and I believe in its future.
Thanks for the heads up, Nicky :<)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Haha, I know how you feel about going back and forth - do I, don't I? That's always the way with a new project but I do feel it's worth having some CTP and the content isn't exactly what I'm in to either but when you see the team, what they're building/built and the determination, it makes you want to support them!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah, so many options, so little time :<) I never imagined that Hive and its second layer tokens would become my biggest crypto holdings but it sure is exciting.
Sounds like Leofinance to me. I don't really feel I fit in but the believe and energy is there. It's worth investing in.
See you around.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Haha a familiar story for sure! It's why I trimmed down on a lot of tokens I had and consolidated as there's no way to keep up with everything!
I think that spirit is contagious regardless of if the concept resonates - when you feel the energy, you want to be a part of it in some way, even if a little!

Thanks for an awesome CTP review...
Being here from the very beginning and following the journey from the battlefield... A lot of things developed in the meantime, and it's nice to see that it gets respect from other communities...
There have been a lot of initiatives born in this tribe that has been spread outside to Hive, like the #2020Vision challenge, @ThisIsAwesome curation project, I Am Alive Challenge, #MyHiveGoals, etc..
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
No worries man and glad that you have been there from the beginning! A true CTP stalwart supporter! I'm not a die hard in any community so try to keep things as broad as I can, probably miss a lot of things as well but try to educate followers on what else is out there - I think we all want everything to succeed so I prefer the spirit of collaboration myself!
Ah, MyHiveGoals was CTP? I think I did a post but can't remember - those are some pretty cool initiatives that went under my radar - so much going on, so little time haha! Keep striving with CTP mate! I'll see if I can hop on another initiative in the future!

after leo ctp is the most promising project for me!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You have a good point there! There are some great communities around though, all carving out their own niche - we need a HIVE-powered community atlas so we can keep track of all this haha!

A very nice writeup .
That's my one of the main reason that I keep collecting and staking CTP and LEO. these both communities are great place to hang and are very welcoming.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thanks for checking it out mate! Yes, definitely felt very welcomed and the warmth from the project owners is inspiring - very helpful when asking questions and seems there have been plenty of great initiatives in the past already that I missed!

Great summary of CTP @nickyhavey, there is a lot going on here, and much more to come, I have been here since day 3 of CTPtalk and it's just a fantastic community.
Thanks man! Glad I managed to get the main points! It sounds like there's so much happening that it would probably be a full time job reporting it as an outsider haha! From my brief encounters with the founders and those involved, CTP really does have a great, warming community behind it too - looking forward to seeing how it all goes this year for everyone involved!

I bought 1000CTP at 0.1hive months ago. It's now trading at 0.3hive and very scarce.
I think the project will be the next to takeoff from the shores of Hive and into the mainstream
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Good call on that! I've just been acquiring from posting and delegating at the moment but a 3x in a couple of months is not too bad at all! I'm sure there's plenty more to come in 2021 from the team!

That latest post by CTP where they covered all of the stuff they are working on was pretty great. Lots of awesome things happening. You should have thrown in there that they have a Hive-Engine Witness node now. Or did you and I just missed it? It has been a crazy morning!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Ah there's so much going on I probably missed it! I didn't know about Hive-Engine Witnesses, that's a pretty cool development! It's been a crazy year!

hey man... I'm a huge supporter of your music posts, particularly your liquid D&B. Decided to stick around and read this amazing post on CTP. Thanks for clearing things up a bit. I'm still a little confused but I'm sure I'll get it as I read more in the CTP Community.
thanks!
Hey Alex! Thank you so much for the awesome support man - really appreciate it and glad you found this one useful. They're a decent bunch at CTP, hustling away to bring online marketers and entrepreneurs to HIVE.
I'll be posting more music (specifically dnb and trance) going forward now, it's where my heart is at right now.
Hope you're well - have a great weekend!
