How would you explain Hive
Each time when I have to explain what Hive, I struggle to come up with a good answer. So I thought that we could work out something together. In today's mission we would ask you the following:
Describe Hive to a complete beginner in maximum 3 sentences without using complex vocabulary

Hive is a decentralised global network of computers that anyone can access or operate to provide uncensored, fast, resilient data storage and retrieval for communities and individuals.
It can run games and other specialist applications, but is mostly a replacement for Instagram, X, Facebook, YouTube, and other social media.
On Hive, you own your posts, tweets, and pictures from which you might choose to earn cryptocurrency as long as you are prepared to research, understand, and accept the financial risks.
!BBH
That's as complete as it comes. This could fit as a dictionnary entry :-)
It is like a social media blog site. :)
You are not wrong there :-)
Since my main use of Hive is its social aspect, I will focus on that part. I would tell him that Hive is the place where you can express yourself freely. Like a conventional blog, but where users own our content and we don't have to pay for storage. I would add that, in addition, there is a whole universe behind it in which to immerse yourself, from games to finance.
!PIMP
That's a point that a lot of people don't realize. Having a blog or another web presence is normally not free...
Hive is a social attention ecosystem based on blockchain technology that enables its users to interact with others, publish articles and videos, participate in communities, play games, trade crypto assets, and get rewarded for their actions.
Simple as that !LOLZ

A decentralized network that allows people to communicate and earn rewards in the process. Sadly, changes have made it more centralized giving certain people more power to control everything without even consulting with the masses. Hive's speed and proof of stake are a novel concept that is so underutilized, so many more games and projects should be building here. We really need to get the word out!
We are not having the success that we expected in this endavour...
This was the topic I talked to Bro Bum before he became a mad king. I told him if he wanted to promote something, he must be able to describe it in the most simple way.
so here mine
I totally agree with that. If you need a phd to understand it, you won't use it...
I always try to explain that Hive is a decentralized social network, meaning that it has no owner or company behind it, and that you can make long posts, which are blog-style, or quick posts, which are microblogs, and monetize them without needing many views or anything like that.
That's quite a nice explanation. Thanks!
Hive can be(come) a great gateway to the crypto world for the regular people. It can be the crypto world's "training mode", similar to the same concept we find on centralized brokers, before you play with real money. Hive can be many things, but it's a good place to start.
You are right. Since it's free to transact and you can 'earn' your capital, it could be a very nice first playground to test crypto.
Hive is a social media platform with some rewards given to content or for the investment in the blockchain.
That's a short but quite good description. Thanks!
Hive is a family, with all the pros and cons that come with it. And it’s also a blockchain — with everything that follows from that as well… )) No one promises it will be easy, but it’s absolutely worth it!
That's an interesting point to start with! Well done!
Hive is a platform which is able to host a wide variety of apps covering anything from social media to games and finance.
The swiss army knife of crypto :-)
Hive is a website where you can write and interact in a same way that any social media and still owning everything that you produce. But everything is based in a digital coin called Hive. The more Hive, the stronger your “likes” become.
This is quite a good explanation!
thanks...tried to use as many easy words as possible! we need to imagine trying to explain to a middle school kid I think hehehe, there are fancy words that are trickier to use like crypto, decentralization....
A lot of people use the term decentralisation but it often doesn't ring a bell to the people hearing it.
I was trying to explain to my 8 year daughter what was BTC one of these days hehe
Hive is a decentralized blockchain, and transactions on the chain are free if you have resource credits from staking Hive. The central part is a social media blog where people can blog about whatever they want.
Nice one, thanks!
This is not as simple a question as it seems. Because if it were, then there would be no need to ask this after so many years. The concepts mentioned here - decentralization, blockchain, web3, crypto, are unclear to most people. It is undoubtedly a social network that allows communication and sharing of various media content.
I think the best explanation, although from 2021, is this: https://jryze.me/hive/
That's a great page and it's the first time I see it! Thanks for sharing!
social media where you can get rewarded for things you post, without stumbling on advertisings .
Peakd took them away it seems :-)
It is like Facebook/X but provides the ability to earn crypto with every post. It also has various games that you can play for fun and also earn crypto. Fun, exciting and the Social Media of the future.
Nice explanation! Thanks!
Hive is a platform where you can share your ideas, stories, or projects and earn rewards for it. It's like a social network, but here your posts have real value.

Hive is where you can blog or vlog with the possibility of earning rewards. Your account and content are yours, no one can delete them.
