Can Hive Do It Again?

(Edited)

I joined steemit\hive in September 2016.

A couple years later, with the help of an entire community, together we helped bring a brand new product to the world, with just a small part of the results shown in the above video.

Mene Investment Jewelry Unboxings spread like wildfire across the community and helped catapult a publicly traded but very young company into the world.

Mene is now a major force and has tens of thousands of repeat customers, generating millions in revenue.

My question today is, can Hive do it again?

Can Hive prove to the world that a passionate community can prove extreme valuable to an outside company that wants to accelerate its product through visual and written media all over the globe.

My hope is that Hive can repeat this success and help bring awareness to Totenpass, another subsidiary of Goldmoney (like Mene was and is).

Mene is not the only company that has benefited from the underrated and under appreciated power of hive.

The most obvious example of a company rooted in hive community roots is @splinterlands , and I’m hoping to harness both companies success to benefit Hive, Splinterlands, and Totenpass by creating the same kind of energy and excitement we all experienced in those early years.

This is a splinterlands card, The Mighty Dricken, on a Totenpass.

With a community interested in decentralization, crypto, NFTS, and content creation, I cant think of a better fit for a product than Totenpass.

Please take the time to read the news release of the initial beta launch:

News Release: https://www.goldmoney.com/corporate/news/goldmoney-announces-the-official-launch-of-subsidiary-company-totenpass

And or the White Paper: https://www.totenpass.com/pdf/Totenpass-Whitepaper-January-2021.pdf

Ultimately, my vision for Totenpass and Hive is to one day see Totenpass unboxings as commonplace as Mene jewelry unboxings were a couple years ago here. I imagine the creativity will be abundant as people decide how to paint their story on this old\new piece of technology, and hope to see reveals and new ideas I could never think of on my own.

If Hive can do it again, this may be another layer of proof that given enough excitement and enthusiasm, this community can become very attractive to a wider population and will attractive them to the ecosystem and that benefits… everyone.

Hello there, both totenpass and mene accept crypto for payment through bitpay. However, I do not see hive as an option currently

Ah! Then if you use that, it should accept SWAP.HIVE that is the pegged token for HIVE on Hive-Engine.

I am going to try it now and if there is any thing missing, will let you know.

Man... BitPay is the worst... they are not clearly stating the network fees and its super disappointing when you end up sending less than what's needed. I would really like to pay with HIVE directly... whatever the conversion.

Talk with https://discord.gg/wg5RytFtM6 (when HIVE is enabled I will buy 2 of these).

And then the worst part is that they take a lot of time to give you back the crypto... a disaster my gosh. It has been almost 24 hours and the still have what is not theirs. Does not even sound like crypto...

Very disappointing. Expect your crypto to be lost, under these circumstances, at least for a few days (making it hard for retries).

I really wanna get one of those, but the experience via bitpay is horrible.

Now done with Crypto.com

Used the same DOGE to purchase it... but via Crypto.com. Hopefully, it will be worth it.

I will mention you and do a post once it arrives. Hopefully before HiveFest. Are you comming by the way?

PS: If I already have a bitpay account can I link it with the referral program too? how does it work?

Congrats! Glad it worked finally.

Did you happen to use my referral link? I’m asking to make sure the system is working.

I did not have a bitpay account until I made one for this purchase so I cant confirm your question but I would be surprised if an existing account was not able to be linked.

To be sure I would contact customer support directly (found at the bottom of the home page)

No hive fest for me :)

Yes I used yours, I think, otherwise would not have said shipping was free right? What kind of information you see about the referrals? Curious...

I have tested the account creation (because I had already another account) and it needs to use the same email but maybe if contacting the support they will be able to link accounts. Either way because their identification system allows multiple accounts from the same user/person, I will just verify another one.

Yes, correct on the free shipping. Thanks for that!

If someone uses your referral to make a purchase you should get an e mail notification. More here: https://www.totenpass.com/referral

I look forward to seeing your totenpass!
