In our entrepreneurial days, I often heard rumors from others suspicious of our success as a successful holding company in a country where doing business is currently a nightmare. I remember comments about us such as: “They launder money” (as if hard work was a plague), “They are plugged in” (to mean we had relations with the government), “They are indebted to the banks” (as if that were a sin) and an incredible number of other qualifications, which we will not repeat here. It is enough to know that nothing was the product of magic, but the hard work of an entire family, in pursuit of serving the country with the best tradition to bring products to every sales floor around Venezuela. So, something I learned during that time is that success is not forgiven, simply because those who want everything for free do not move to emulate the behavior of those who do take the necessary steps.
One of the clearest things we had in mind when we embarked on the Web3 world was that no one was going to give us anything for free. Having had experience in the business world, if we wanted to get to the top, we would have to fight relentlessly and chase the elusive Mr. Success. Well, our partner @arlettemsalase once told us - in the face of our maximalism for HIVE - the following: “you have to fight for relationships outside of HIVE, only then can you get what you want” and I listened. Little by little I started to come out of ostracism and we started talking to others about Web3. This is how we have obtained here in Argentina, the fruits of that sowing. First, by approaching criteria with the CEO of Cripto Tendencia Andrés Tejero, resulting in a position as a columnist in that digital media, among the most influential in Latin America. Then we have done the same with Fernando Quiros, editor-in-chief for Latin America of CoinTelegraph in Spanish, both friends before related to the press of the crypto sphere.
And what's this all about? Let's say to raise the awareness of the average hiver. In the links embedded in the images of this publication, you will find new notes related to HIVE. If before our chain has not been exposed in the media, now things have changed. The reason? Both journalists have been convinced of the benefits of HIVE, through the networking work done with them, since I met Andrés in Colombia and Fernando in Peru. Both never lost track of us. And having made the decision to go to the MERGE event on our own, risking an expensive ticket, was the best decision we have made since we started our networking journey representing our community. It was a role for which no one gave us permission and a move guided by intuition, common sense and that advice received from the 'Maracucha'
Yesterday “The paradox of decentralization in Web3: the case of Steem vs. Hive” was published in Cripto Tendencia and with little time apart, another note on our network in CoinTelegraph in Spanish titled: “Hive: VSC Network will incorporate smart contracts and interoperability” Both have been the product of the interest generated by the networking work and the transmission of clear ideas about the benefits offered by our layer 1. Next week, we will bring another scheduled surprise, product of the work we have been doing here in the city of Buenos Aires. The final message for the partners who read us: don't ask why you are downvoted, don't ask for more recognition within the chain, go out there and pursue success outside of publishing content. Your work will be recognized by your peers and we will make a blockchain much more valuable than it is today.Will you join me? I'll read you in the comments.
