Take me to your leader! Take me to the Hive Queen

Hello Hello to all Hivians and indeed anyone reading this (including possible aliens...)

Picture this ...

You're casually scrolling through your Hive frontend of choice, maybe upvoting a cat picture, when suddenly a fluffing gigantic shimmering spaceship appears on your screen.

A beam of light hits the ground and out steps... well let's just say they're not here for the HBD interest rates. Out steps a fluffing alien and a metallic voice booms, "Take me to your leader!"

Well fluff me backwards with a layer2 token!!

Now according to the blockchain gospel or at least the OGs we all "own" Hive, we all have a stake, a say, a tiny digital voice in this vast Hive ecoverse of ours.

But let's be fluffing real for a moment....

When the intergalactic chips are down, you don't want a committee meeting.

You want someone who can talk the talk, walk the walk, and maybe, just maybe, explain what the fluff a "witness" is without causing an alien existential crisis.

And that, my fellow Hivians is why my answer is without a shadow of a doubt to who is our leader is @crimsonclad aka Gina.

First off though, let's address the elephant in the room blockchain ~ she's a woman!

Of course she's a fluffing woman...

I mean ffs, what's a hive without a Queen?

It's just... just a bunch of bees buzzing aimlessly.

@crimsonclad with her regal presence and undeniable influence is the natural monarch of our beloved digital blockchain, the natural Queen of Hive.io ...

She's already got the "Queen" thing down to a pat, probably without even trying.

Now... you might be thinking "But Tengo you fluffing bawbag, what makes her qualified to negotiate with beings from beyond the stars?"

Excellent question you hypothetical alien-skeptic! Let me present my case:


If you think I have gone off my nutter (you might be right you cheekybugger) but....

Why @crimsonclad is Hive's leader!

Exhibit A: The X Factor

CrimsonClad on X is practically a resident of X Spaces. She's out there mingling with the masses, dropping knowledge bombs on a regular basis. I mean let's face it she probably makes more sense than most of these crypto "gurus" on X or Hive.

But more importantly, she's a public speaker for Hive at Web3 exhibitions.

You know what that means???

She's already perfected the art of explaining complex mind-bending concepts like how the ValuePlan is a good thing to bewildered Hivians.

**Aliens then? ... A piece of fluffing cake. **

She's probably got a PowerPoint presentation ready to go, complete with animated GIFs of Hive's decentralization (courtesy of the @stickupboys).

Exhibit B: The Thrash Metal Music Mojos.

This is where the Hive Queen ramps it up a key and no not your Hive keys. crimsonclad loves her thrash or even tech death metal music. I'm talking head-banging, face-melting, eardrum-shattering metal bands like Warbringer and Allegaeon.

You think these aliens have heard anything like that?... The fluff they fluffing have!!

They'll be so on their metallic knees by the sheer auditory assault, they'll probably just agree to whatever she says to make it stop. "Yes, Queen crimsonclad, you can keep all the HBD, just please, no more thrashing in my ears!"

And let's be fair, anyone who can stomach the glorious noise and survive a Warbringer Allegaeon pit probably has the mental fortitude to handle alien peace talks without even missing a block.

Exhibit C: The Common Pleb Connection.

And here's the clincher for me...

The truly revolutionary aspect of crimsonclad's leadership??

She fluffing talks to us ... the common plebs. Yes, us. On X, no less!

While other influential figures might be too busy milking the system or debating the finer points of governance, crimsonclad is out there engaging with the everyday Hivian.

This means she understands the pulse of the community, our hopes, our dreams, our occasional rant about curation rewards. She's not just a leader ~ she's our fluffing leader, the one who won't leave us hanging when the little green men come knocking.

So when the aliens do land and demand to see our leader, I'm not pointing them to a snap or a wave or a server farm. I'm pointing them straight to @crimsonclad.

She's got the brains, she's got the public speaking nouse, she's got the metal-fueled negotiating tactics and most importantly she's our fluffing Queen who actually talks to us ... the common plebs ... her subjects.

Where is she taking us? (Fluffed if I know, just as long it is not in a fluffing rally car!) Probably to a future where Hive is so dominant, the aliens are asking us for investment advice...

And maybe, just maybe, she'll even teach them how to survive the mosh pit. After that surviving a bleeding market is a royal piece of piss!

What do you think Hivians? Who's your fearless leader when the spaceship lands? Let me know in the comments!

Well, with this post you convinced me! So much so, that I started to follow it. Anyway, if the aliens come, I hope they are not green, and that you are close, because I know you can communicate with them perfectly. hahaha. An extraterrestrial hug 👽

Hehe I can communicate with anything Nancy. Even green I am sure, well as long as they not too acidic! An extraterrestrial hug for today Nancy 👽

The thing I've always loved about @crimsonclad is she talks to 'plebs', as you say. She always made me feel so welcome, valued and wanted, back when I used to join in Discord shows. And that laugh - she's a cracker, and couldn't agree more.

0.00061784 BEE

Fantastic point River....

She always made me feel so welcome, valued and wanted

Valued and wanted .... I think people do not appreciate how huge that is. There are some on Hive intent on driving people away by demeaning them and making them feel not wanted.

So when someone with such a high profile as crimsonclad makes you feel welcome, valued and wanted, that is huge . makes you happy and that is how you grow a chain. Happy people share without even realising it.

Hehehehe... I like your entry for this initiative and your humorous interpretation, even as you discuss serious stuff (pardon, fluff 🤣)... Crim is definitely our HIVE Queen, and I would add one more reason on top of yours... She doesn't care how big some whales are or how much influence they have; she says what she thinks, and not many do that nowadays!

Great post, great pick! Tengo for Vice-King! 😃

hehe thanks Zoltan, yeah she is a breath of fresh air and I do enjoy listening to her on Spaces.
You nailed it with the fact she says what she thinks. Sadly the vast majority can't do that without committing Hive suicide.
She is cool though and is a real face and voice which is something the masses and aliens need to see.

Thanks so much for the pick and I hope you have a cracking time with the family visit.

I guess you are my hive leader boss boss 😂. So when the aliens come I'll send them right to Scotland for some whooping 😁😁

Friend, I don't even know what to say. I've always considered myself just one of the guys, around here and have always been so chuffed that all of YOU talk to ME... because honestly, it's a weird mix of things that I love and hearing me smash them all together in discussion I imagine is a little bit like being given involuntary whiplash. This has been such a rough few years, so I know that while my forward facing? (trying to think of what good terminology would be) presence has felt a bit spotty, working on the more boring (and hidden) day to day tasks still is a meaningful pursuit to me. But I miss everyone, and being this me that you describe here! I've never felt nearly as accomplished as walking beside people who use this place to better their own lives, build cool things, and find communities and passions that they love.

Seeing you write something so kind right now brings me almost to tears, not to be dramatic. It's been a long stretch of years full of loss and uncertainty on a personal front, that's required a lot of rebalancing and which took away a lot of my ability to be as present for others and consistent in creation. I'd be lying if I tried to pretend that it hasn't had an impact on my overall mental health and wellbeing. There are so many people that we've met here that have become more than just internet handles who are facing war, or economic hardship, or personal losses— would that that none of us were all competing in the pain olympics like this. I just want to tell you that reading this gave my heart a little boost, and that I feel very seen (and a little embarrassed), and that it comes at a time where I didn't know I needed it. So thank you, and I appreciate you, because we often have nice things to say to each other but we don't actually take the time to do it, because it takes effort and time out of your day where you could be spending it on other things.
what a wonderful heart you have 🖤

They should probably let me know why the heck they want to see my leader! And then, I’ll think of showing them one of the so many leaders we have on hive!

Crimsonclad is definitely one of the good picks of who a true leader is and should be.

!PIMP

0.00000000 BEE

Yes a true leader who is selfless.
