Yeah thats why I am not here for the money. Invest in Bitcoin or Ethereum if you want to make money through appreciation of the coin. Otherwise build a business on HBD and just charge people HBD for your solutions. You can open a store and do dropshipping or participate on marketplaces.
I recommend a couple of projects to automate the creation of a webshop. One is HiveLists Store, the other is Waivio.
Each have tutorials on how to get started, I suggest to take a look first, so you get the idea. The project founders are also very attentive on the support channels on discord.
I am here money because I dont have people with me here so... I agree I have to push the funds to ethereum once hive appreciates. nobody would pay with HBD and hive so cant build business with hive. I may have to find other solutions too.
Well the idea is that you use v4v.app or VSC to accept Bitcoin Lightning Network, or Eth, LTC, etc... and then sell it back to HBD. That way you can add more mainstream coins.
On the consumer side too many steps. Consumers don't want too many steps. and if you accept with BTC why would you downgrade to HIVE?
That won't be the consumer side, that would be your side. The consumer can pay with BTC LN but it will be routed to your v4v.app wallet and if they pay with ETH or USDT, it will be sent to your VSC account.
Right now any Hive user can receive BTC LN by sending sats to <your_hive_name>@v4v.app
VSC is a bit more complicated, and again, I think is not ready yet, but once you have an account you can take crypto as synthetic assets automatically. It's only a matter of adding that code when the user generates his payment.
Actually somehow Hivelists already have a checkout process that take USDT/USDC/DAI from different chains and L2 aside from BTC, LTC, XMR and BCH. 
I am just saying that crypto currencies are a powerful tool. You can do digital entrepreneurship with it, and have your business online. How can you do it? Start a company:
Living entirely on a crypto-based economy offers some powerful advantages. One of the biggest is that it allows you to escape the limitations of your local economy.
Imagine you live in a country with severe economic challenges, like Venezuela or Cuba, where most people have very little disposable income and aren't able to pay much for goods or services. In that environment, your potential customers are severely restricted.
But with crypto, you can sell directly to buyers in Europe, North America, or Asia—people with far greater purchasing power. This opens up a much higher-quality clientele. Suddenly, instead of scraping by with 5–10% profit margins, you could achieve 50–80% markups or more.
You can also leverage AI tools to create high-quality content—videos, audio, graphics, or articles—to promote your business on traditional Web2 platforms (like YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok) while accepting payments seamlessly through Web3 (crypto).
I’ve been exploring and writing about these kinds of opportunities for a while now. In this article, I outline several different models and strategies. It covers a lot of ground, which can feel overwhelming at first—but the good news is you don’t need to pursue them all. Just pick one that aligns with your skills and interests, and focus on executing it well.
Ok, thank you. I will go through the article if I have any questions I will get back to you.
