Every day we all sit at our keyboards, be they phones or laptops or PCs, and watch the value of Hive and Leo and Cub and ProofofBrain and CineTV and BRO....you get my point....go up and down and wish they would do more going up and less going down. We want the value of our stakes to grow so we can feel smart and validated and maybe even rich to a certain degree. Some more than others, obviously. But really, the true value of Hive is not in the price. Don't get me wrong, I definitely want the price to go higher. Much higher. Like a couple hundred dollars wouldn't hurt my feelings. :-) But in the meantime, the real "value" of this place is so much more.

For one thing, people can earn crypto and money without having any money or crypto to start with. We've all read the success stories of users who have grown their accounts simply by staying engaged and consistent in using the platform. There are very few places in the world this can be done. Especially to the degree it can be done here.

But even more than that, the true "value" offered by Hive (and Leo and other tribes) is the knowledge and experience available to be accessed by young, old, veteran, and newbie alike, and is, in my opinion, worth far more than the actual dollars and cents. The information available here is second to none anywhere in the world of crypto. From whales to devs to financial experts to entrepreneurs, the wealth of knowledge being shared can pay dividends far beyond what's on the screen in front of you. It can be applied to the world around you, no matter which country you are from. Pretty special in my opinion.

From music to photography to poetry and writing, from finance to sports to science and technology, from healthy living and exercise to cooking and drinking, movies and tv, the caliber of people and treasure troves of experience and knowledge they are willing to pass on is absolutely astonishing. It's almost like having a living, breathing wikipedia which doesn't just give you the information on a page, but is actually able to explain it and answer questions as well.

Again, we all want the destination to be abundance and riches. But don't forget that the journey is full of opportunities to enrich not just your pocketbooks, but also your mind and spirit, and the minds and spirits of those around you.

Embrace it. Tap into these people. Find the niches that interest you and become one of these people to somebody else. When you become focused on that, your bags will truly fill like never before.

Oh yeah, and curate, comment, and vote. :-) I can't write an article without including that.... lol
