RE: Blogging was the bait, HBD Is the Hook (Eng/Esp)

I don't see it as an attack on Hive as a blogging platform, but rather an answer to the question "what next?"
We post, we powerup, we post more, and we keep going - hoping we didn't miss the window when to extract it all and run to the hibernation chamber for another 3-5 years.
How do we maintain the bloggers alive when crypto cycle ends? By creating a real-world use - independent of the crypto market.
If this scales, there can be a scenario where the local business runs out of HBDs to sell because the demand to buy things with HBD and get a discount is so great. That, in turn, will be an incentives for this business to purchase more HBD, and the only way to do that, is by buying Hive first. That is one way Hive can go up in value, outside of purely speculative crypto market.
In essence, the case is made of two parts:
Boost the hive economy by integrating it with the real-world commerce (using apps like @distriator) - creating a pathway to greater demand and growth without speculation.
Increasing user base by opening a pathway to non-content-creators. People who use their phones to buy and sell things locally.
Blogging will always go on. But content creators will benefit from the increase in the value of Hive.
