The stats from arcange appears to be showing an increase in activity.

There may be fair weather HIVE users. This is people who only interact with the blockchain when the price is rising.

The number of new users isn't that good. I've noticed that the introduceyourself posts appear to be better. My guess is that either someone is creating convincing fake new users or there are people who are actively bringing their friends into the network and showing their friends the ropes.

I told a couple of friends about Hive during the steem days. A number of them created accounts but all of them abandoned their accounts. I simply stopped trying to force people to join. These days I simply tell people about the developments (and of course value) and it seems to spark an interest

The world of sales is really strange. People in the modern world are trained to reject the things that they are told. To sell an idea one pretty much let people come to the idea on their own.

This does not mean that HIVE cannot be sold.

If one had a business where people came to the business to learn about crypto; then they would be excited about the platform; since they would feel that they discovered it.

I suspect that a few people are running such businesses. The businesses actively help people with their first posts and help people get their first upvotes.

I remember it took me almost 200 messages to get my first 15 HIVE. So, a business that coaches people in their initial days could make a huge difference.

Companies that introduced people to HIVE and that coached people through the first months of the platform could be both profitable and help the platform achieve mass adoption.

BTW: I actually thought about setting up a business that would introduce people to HIVE, among other things.
