This report here was too long already to include project posts, that's why they were omitted. Regular projects like the SWC have their own communities and standalone posts on VP. We can find some place to just store a working list of them however. It's not a bad idea to put it in Gitlab.
The events all generate new user signups but they're not measured in new user numbers. This is because our promotions don't advertise Hive as a "place to earn money" or "make money from home". That type of message has sabotaged us for a long time and was more suited for when pre-Hive launched in 2016 with only one application. Going forward though they will be measurable, although not the prime focus. Prior to the signup frontends going up we had no way to figure out who was signing up when and after what event. Other usual metrics: number of news articles, social media reach, number of businesses, number of new partnerships, size of crowd, and so on. The sports events are mostly measured by size of crowd and media. The conferences are more focused on partnerships. So on.
Yeah, my main worry is that there are thousands of dollars funneled into this particular initiative where people exercise and promote hive with a ton of money with no real conversion except promoting hive. I get that promotion is key but, in this particular case, funding exercise activities with no measurable signups well, sounds pretty bad in terms of investment.
