Hive Will Change The World!
After last night's podcast on the Crypto Maniacs I was inspired like I've never been before!
It's hard to put into words exactly how I felt, so I decided there is no better way to do so then...Putting my thoughts on chain ;)
If you didn't get a chance to check out the show, make sure you take a listen as it'll help you get the context in which my excitement comes from. You see I have a dream personally on chain...
And if you have followed my journey for any amount of time, you'll know it. I want to 'make a living' from my efforts and investments here on Hive. And if you have spent any amount of time on Hive, you'll know it comes from various different ways on chain.
Creating, curating, investing, delegating, commenting, playing games....Heck, even losing weight and tracking it all with @actifit lol I means, seriously, Hive truly is a remarkable ecosystem and blockchain community.
But then last night happened...
And @tsunsica shared with us her journey on chain and what Hive means to countries like hers, Venezuela. With a few upvotes here and there, and a steady game plan to add value to the blockchain, a resident of that country could essentially make a full time income here.
This blew my mind and it gave me a new way to look at my own efforts on chain. Now look, I'm no whale...Heck, I'm not even back to 100,000 Hive Power, but my full upvote at current prices is worth around 50 cents. That is actually worth something to people around the world!
For us in the first world, we may whine and complain about getting 50 cents from our efforts here...but for the rest of the world, it truly can...Change someone's life.
Are you kidding me???
So you are saying....
With my little puny upvote on Hive. Plus my voting power on LEO as well...I can actually HELP others around the globe?
Sign. Me. Up!
Now look, I know some people may read this and say...Sure Jongo, you wanna help the world. Yeah right, you want to put money in your pocket!!
That's the beauty of Hive!
You see, we all win when the entire community wins! The curation rewards aside, to me it creates a healthy community of passionate people that lives are being changed, just by adding value here. How powerful is that?
So my approach going forward is to do more, to help others here. And while I have always thought I was doing that, I want to help more with delegation, voting, etc. I sent a small delegation to @hispapro last night thanks to Tsunsica's recommendation, plus I'm also delegating to the @hivecuba and @aliento projects as well.
Boots on the ground! These amazing projects on Hive KNOW their individual communities, and are the best at rewarding it's creators. Plus I plan to be much more active in the curation / votes on Leo Threads too. Micro earning means a whole lot more to me now after last night, as this stuff adds up and ACTUAL people are being helped!
Hey I may be just a small fish here compared to others, but imagine if we all did what we could to help everyone out with the resources we've been blessed with?
Hive will change the world! And how do I know, because it's been changing me!

Yeah, I could tell you were pretty inspired at the end of the show. If HIVE ever moons again, it could make a lot of difference in some people's lives, that's for sure.
Man, it's so exciting. I just keep thinking about it and it gets me more fired up lol

We are very grateful for your support, Mr. Jongolson. Truly for many of us, Hive is a real opportunity and is currently changing the lives of many people.
For us in developing countries, blockchain has become a kind of lifeline because the changes that Hive proposes to people's finances are significant from day one.
That's why we are so enthusiastic, energetic and committed to every intervention we make. Here it is possible to be educated in finance, invest, interact and as a result have a real opportunity to stabilize the individual economy that allows to escape from the slavery proposed by the system.
Thanks. On behalf of my project @hispapro, carried together with @tsunsica and @alberto0607.

Honored to help out. I know I'm no big fish on chain, but I think if everyone chips in...Like you said, this becomes a lifeline for so many awesome members of the community!
Hive IS changing lives!
Absolutely it is!!
Hive is amazing. I don't think I would bother walking as much before Actifit and it's been a amazing place. I show up every single day and it's amazing to see it's impact on everyone here.
Our future selves will thank us lol I just know it!
The best part? Hive is doing all of this without VC funding and the George soros funding Hive for something thanos like sinster stuff. I feel that is the power of the hive, not depend on the rich and greedy for income. We have built a good village that is trying to sustain itself :)
It's mind blowing to me...It's the true representation of what crypto and blockchain can mean to the world!
I think its a real first world problem that people dont value some Cents. Especially as they normally dont have the need to cash out, so they could grow easily.
While those in Venezuela or Nigeria f.e. have it more difficult to grow.
But its not only about Money. Never elsewhere dud I find such an amazing helpful and contact friendly community

So true. I can change someone's life. It really hit me that my simple upvote, can impact others in a big way.
That is the greatest point I have read this week! Keep distribute your upvotes! It seems that you are heavily invested into the Hive blockchain. Cool to see and somehow your engagement and thoughts get me more bull on this ecosystem as well! Keep up m8!
Thanks for checking it out! I mean, it just made sense to me when i first figured it all out...But the deeper I get into it, the more impactful I think this place will become for so many people!
As we talked about before; If only people knew😉
The difference that Hive is making is really amazing and the opportunity is available to anyone who is willing to participate. The win-win situations makes it so much worthwhile!
So true. You truly do get what you put into it!
Thanks for your post! I for one think that it already did for the better! Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts, all the best, and plenty of success here on HIVE! 🙂
I think so too, just reading some people's comments and posts this weekend!
Indeed, let's remain optimistic. At the same time, it's important to mention the charitable part/side of HIVE as well, such as papillon charity and the NFTs for peace for Ukraine. That's why, among others, I strongly think that HIVE already changed the world for the better. Best regards! 🙂
P.S.: Plus, it's a vibrant, wonderful community full of warm, kind people and very interesting content!
From the headline, I was so happy to read that Hive will change the world and I can't wait
I'm glad that we are gradually progressing with the fact that we have threads, games, blog and so much more
Nice one!
Anything you really do have a passion for here, can be something people can build. It's awesome!
Awesome post my friend. Glad you have been awakened. I have been doing what I can to promote, upvote, Hive Ghana for awhile now.
By the way, I missed my mention on cryptomaniacs. Hope it was good .
Help ourselves by helping others. That old saying holds truth.
