$1000 in Hive Rewards - $0 on Centralized Social Media

I received an automated comment yesterday from @hivebuzz, letting me know I reached a milestone. Not all milestones are as interesting as this one, I'd say:

3,000 HP in Hive rewards

As it happens, 3000 HP - if we think of it in its liquid form Hive - is currently valued at approximately 1000 US dollars. How is that for coincidences and exact numbers?

That's exactly one thousand bucks more than I received on any centralized social media platform I have or had an account on.

Not to mention Hive price is on the way up, so 3000 HP will have a higher dollar value in the future.

That only counts the Hive rewards (apparently both author and curation rewards), but not the tribe rewards (author or curation), not the Hive interest, lending or gaming ROIs.

At some point in the past I tracked these stats regularly, we can see some of them like author and curation rewards for Hive and tribes on HiveStats.

Since I'm writing this post, I was curious to see the value of my tribe rewards, compared to those on Hive.

Here they are:

Almost DOUBLE!

And tribes have a shorter history than Hive or than my own history on this beautiful blockchain.

That's the equivalent of 5659 Hive rewards from tribes (actually on Hive-Engine. because not every token is a tribe), compared to 3000 HP. Or 1800 US dollars compared to 1000 USD.

I know there are authors on our chain with much more impressive numbers, as there are others with less figures in their totals, but in the end we all earn much more than on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram combined in direct rewards, because there you earn a big fat ZERO!

And the nice thing is you can earn these rewards all the time, no matter if the market is controlled by the bears or the bulls. No TA involved, no complicated defi lingo, just active posting and commenting, and its appreciation by the community.
