It still baffles me to know that we still have majority of people that haven't heard about the Hive platform which In some point doesn't look that nice especially when it involves people around you.

Though I believe it is a gradual process to let more people know about the platform because not everyone will be pleased to be informed about such without a proper convincing strategy to make them accept.

It is said that not everyone is familiar or interested in Crypto so in such case it can be difficult to convince people to join the hive platform and this is because of the negative ideology they have about investments involve in Crypto.

I believe information is key and that is the only solution to attract newbies to join the hive blockchain. Majority of us who are here today got informed in one way or the other while we have those that were convinced about the impact and benefits the Hive blockchain showcases.

> What is the way forward?

The usage of social media keeps expanding on a daily basis and this is because of the information, entertainment and fun people enjoy while doing so but at what benefit is it to them.

I noticed a guy earlier today that was seriously playing game on his phone for like 5 hours which came to my notice. At first I wasn't concerned he was doing so but then I noticed he is communicating with another player in another country through the same game that made me more curious to ask questions.

I then move closer to see the game which no doubt was entertaining to watch but not convincing to play. I asked him if he was communicating with someone through the game and he said yes that the other person was his partner in the game.

Then I asked whether it is an online game and he said yes that without internet connection he can't have access to the game. I then ask if there was any benefit while doing so and he said no just for the fun.

I wasn't at first bothered with the game he was playing but because of the interaction he was having with someone else in the same game while doing so that got my attention. He also said that is how he plays it on a daily basis.

We live in a world now where so many opportunities are online where you can start to earn money with your leisure time without doing nothing. No doubt there are times we need to relax and have fun but not all the time when there is no means of financial survival.

I asked the guy if he had any game like this where he could make money online, he said no and that he is just playing it for fun. I believe such person should know about the hive platform because that would be a better opportunity and a great benefit if he applies the time and strategy in the blockchain.

The blockchain have grown that we have such games to play here, where we can earn while doing so with the likes of play2earn and splinterlands. This would be a better choice and opportunity to secure something profitable and also have more knowledge about other activities in the blockchain.

> The Hive platform needs to be circulated

No doubt nobody is forced to join the platform but at the same time people need to know that Hive exist which will be of benefit to ensure the blockchain progresses more than what we are experiencing at the moment.

Hive is touching lives around the world so it wouldn't be nice if few people knew about the blockchain and we have more people that are willing to join if we enlighten them about the process and progress of it.

We are all involve in using social media to our benefits but depends on the Profitable aspect which majority needs to utilize and I believe the Hive platform can come through in helping a lot of people.

However, this depends on our actions to spread the good news about Hive to the world and if we really want to do this we need to circulate it with our actions to attract others in joining the platform.
