The HIVE Clout Rush Of 202X?

I'm currently reading The Mystery of Capital: Why Capitalism Triumphs in the West and Fails Everywhere Else by Hernando De Soto. I don't want to get into any detail, because I intend to do a book review on it. One thing that was mentioned in the book was the California gold rush, and the difficulty that people had both documenting and protecting property ownership. These two things are the bedrock of capital formation. Unlike with land in 19th century California, with cryptocurrency and HIVE our capital is documented and protected by blockchain code. In a way, resources on HIVE are much like digital real estate which can be mined just like gold. The reward pool is particularly interesting as a construct since claims on this particular resource can be contested with voting--but I digress.

To some extent, influence and clout (financial at least) on HIVE can be bought like digital real estate. That clout can be used for several different purposes. To date HIVE as a concern has never really experienced a person with real social clout (a rich celebrity for example) seeking financial clout on this blockchain.

I believe only a few instances of this phenomenon could trigger a gold rush of sorts where people from all over attempt to claim capital and resources of their own to compete for clout.

How can you accelerate this process? Convince someone with lots of social clout on the outside that having financial clout on HIVE is worth it too-- even a tiny fraction of their net worth. I believe that all it takes is one or two of the right kind of clout seeker for fireworks to happen.

Your thoughts?
