The HIVE brand war is super confusing. HIVE Blockchain Ltd & HIVE Social APP
Last week it was HIVE social App was trending on Twitter.
And we have this ongoing confusion with HIVE blockchain Ltd.
Today, I noticed that Coinmarketcap.com accidentally adding the article that related to HIVE blockchain Ltd under our decentralised HIVE brand with our brand logo.
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/hive-blockchain/
I've submitted a request to coinmarketcap support team about this and also Tweeted by tagging coinmarketcap.

Please kindly look out for this misleading informations. Specially when you liking, Retweeting and responding to the wrong HIVE Tweet. I came across few HIVE community members responding to the wrong HIVE Tweet. It's not nice to point it out here. I'll send them a DM directly.
Please keep on eye on this brand confusion. We might have to rebrand HIVE in the future.

Good catch, hopefully that doesn’t become an ongoing issue
It's better we Rebrand our HIVE and avoid ongoing issue.

That's been a problem since day 1. I was hoping that we wouldn't hive as a name lol. Very hard to achieve some differentiation of brand.

I totally agree with you @tulwave. I was also disappointed the powers that be went with HIVE as a name since it was flagged up by a number of people as already being in use. I wasn't surprised though.

tokens.I have had to update Wallet Investor on the confusion as well. But it will be an issue going forward I believe.
It's better to Rebrand our HIVE with Hardfork25 to avoid further confusion

I agree. Any name suggestions?
BitMedia
BitSocial
BitHive

I'm not sure how HIVE, as a name, was arrived at - and agreed upon - as then thought to be a good idea!
We can't change the past and I can imagine the high pressure to coordinate to stop the steem hostile takeover and need to act quickly.
I'm thinking rebranding might be good solution.

I agree - although right now might be not so good.... terrible....
Earlier - or later - yes - but if this is the beginning of some bull run?....MMmmm, dodgy timing...imo.
Very True!
The name Hive itself is very difficult to market because other projects with the same name are very popular.
Example - Apache Hive.

Let's rebrand our HIVE to BitMedia or BitSocial

Unfortunately , we will face the same problem then too -
We need something that represents what we do + is unique.

Just getting some feedbacks

I've always wondered why they didn't google the name.

Me thinking the same.
We can't change the past. Rebranding our HIVE to BitMedia or BitSocial would be good solution

HIVE is used so often in so many applications and businesses.

We should rebrand HIVE as BitMedia or BitSocial

That is why in 3 or 4 weeks, we will all be promoting ProjectHope..let people learn about that before teaching about other things. It is going to be a process but that will be the onboarding.

Super excited for ProjectHope!
However our HIVE needs rebranding
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I am still confused, I thought "ProjectHope" was typo in your earlier post.
I thought you are referring "ProjectBlank".
in the past I also had doubts when I found Hive blockchain tec
Me too!
Rebranding our HIVE is a perfect solution
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I agree... many have already done so
Not that I dislike our name, but the confusion was bound to happen! Insisting on the name HIVE with a blockchain company already with the same name was probably not one of our best moves. :) Hope when we gain traction all the confusion will be left behind!

We can't change the past.
Rebranding might be better solution.

just add web 3.0 after it.
Hive W3.0
Good suggestion !
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
We also have brand competition with the hive home heating system product line and pretty much loads of other things.
This is what happens when you use common words as a brand name.
So True!

agreed needs re branding, but also needs thinking about in a big way. The logo is just so boring.
