Thanks for a great vlog! Lots to thinks about when listening to what you say.

I am by far no expert on any of these platforms or tokens or cryptocurrencies in general, but I am learning. What I can say though, is that things like Google Adsense just doesn't make sense to me when compared to decentralized platforms such as the Hive blockchain. In my opinion, with Google Adsense you have to do all the work, you have to study and master SEO...all to ensure traffic on the site where you have your Google Adsense. Then you have to sit and wait, in the hope that you will make some money. Unless you are (again in my opinion) some great expert, you don't really have much control.

On these decentralized platforms, on the other hand, you have much more control. You know what you can and cannot expect right from the outset. Then from there on, your growth is related to how you manage your work and portfolio. Yes, for someone new (like myself) there is a lot to learn, but from the start, you have control and it is up to you what you will do with it versus waiting to see what the results will be and leaving yourself at the mercy of other people (such as Google).

If you just want to write something for the fun of it, it will be different. But if you are serious about the future and want to build something to benefit you in the future, add real value to a community, and create something for yourself on which you can build for the future, I think it's a no-brainer.

Hive might be down at the moment, but I sense stability and confidence in the community. That gives me peace of mind and confidence in the future. You need to decide where your focus will be. As you said in your video, it is good to diversify, but you also need focus. If we are going to jump around from one coin to another every time a coin or token loses some value, we are doomed for failure.

Many people have lost huge amounts of money with bitcoin for that same reason. They sold when they started listening to other people, instead of doing their own research and having faith in what they believe.

Thank you for your comment, Jaco! Appreciate it...

In my opinion, with Google Adsense you have to do all the work, you have to study and master SEO...all to ensure traffic on the site where you have your Google Adsense. Then you have to sit and wait, in the hope that you will make some money. Unless you are (again in my opinion) some great expert, you don't really have much control.

As there is no person who knows how much will BTC value tomorrow, the same goes with "SEO experts"... I have learned that lesson a long time before trying with all possible tricks to "be nice with Google" and to like my website... But, also by paying to so called "experts" for their "services", which was just pumping some irrelevant indicators of my websites... Google algorithm is changing every few weeks, and I'm starting to believe that nobody knows how it works... It's like a recipe for Crusty-burgers of the SpongeBob... lol...

I agree with you about Hive, and decentralized platforms in general... Yes, we as owners of our content, have a lot more power to navigate with our ship... And, yes, there are a lot of problems after every Hard Fork, and not just then... I know that it has passed 4-5 years since the creation of this network, but it's evolving through time and it needs more time...

The important thing is that we have a choice where we want to build... And everyone can pick in what he believes that it's better... I have put my "bet" on the cryptocurrency... Am I right? Don't know, but I have a feeling that I will know the answer very soon...

Cheers!
