The online course to onboard people to hive is ready
We had a plan that we presented at hive fest to create an online course that would bring people to hive without them really realizing it. There was also a component in this course that would allow to generate income from the outside that would profit all the Liotes stakeholders.
We had this plan and then started to test some programs with the community. Unfortunately, these tests were not that positive. We had the choice to either drop the project entirely, to come up with another idea or to still go ahead with it. Since we had invested a lot of time already, we decided to create the project all the same. However, we would maybe not push it as much as we initially planned. The project is now finished and we would like to present it to you.
The Liotes Concept - The easy way to earn crypto
We have created an online course that comprehends a landing page that can be promoted and 10 separate lessons in the form of hive posts.
The whole online course is built on hive. Unfortunately, the video lessons are hosted on Youtube because of the inability to load them to 3speak
Each lesson consists of a video, a transcript of the video, a to do list that asks the student to take some specific actions, a resource list and the navigation to the next and previous lessons. All the actions are supported by a total of 13 tutorials that teach the technical aspects related to these actions.
The layout of a lesson of the Liotes Concept
All the lessons are linked to each other and people can go easily from one lesson to the next thanks to navigation buttons. There is also a main menu with the links to all lessons and tutorials.
What is the idea behind the project?
Basically, people can join this course for free. They are taught how to earn their first cryptos thanks to faucets and similar websites. In a second step they learn how they can transfer their earnings to hive and to invest it into the liotes project. There they are introduced to 3 passive income streams that are provided by hive and liotes. People also learn how they can scale their income thanks to the liotes project.
Through the process of the course, they get familiar with Hive and they start to use it without it being the main focus of the course.
What do people learn in this course?
We wanted to provide a tool that people can use to promote hive. The students learn how to create a hive account over inleo, how to claim their keys, how to use keychain, how to transfer other cryptos to hive, how to power up, how to delegate, how to use liquidity pools and also how to use short form content. We then provide the Liotes community as an entry point for them to get more active on the blockchain.
How you can use the Liotes concept?
If you want to onboard somebody to hive and don't want to explain all the different steps, you can simply lead them to the course over the landing page or directly over the introduction. You can also check the main menu of the course and make them skip some lessons if they are advanced crypto users already.
Bringing users and external income to hive
We believe that the course can be an interesting tool to onboard new users. It shows the most important steps to start with hive without overwhelming them. We would be grateful if you helped us promote it outside of hive.
If people join the course and do the demanded tasks, they will generate referral income that will be used to purchase hive which will be powered up under the liotes.learn account. This hive power is then delegated out to our curation project ourpick where it generates daily income. This income is then used 100% to add rewards linked to the liquidity pool LEN:LENM.
If you decide to promote the course, then you can directly profit from the work that you are doing by providing liquidity to the pool LEN:LENM. You will get daily rewards in the form of Swap.BTC, LEN and CTPSB tokens.

Excellent initiative! A great service to the HIVE eco-system! !BBH
Thanks for the feed-back!
I haven't read each step but I looked at the action points. I left you a comment on lesson 6 or 7 I think, because you forgot to delete the action points that follow in the next lesson.
I think that's a good process. People who like to follow step by step instructions may be attracted this way.
Actually both lessons share the same action point because it refers to a video to stake and delegate HP. In one lesson it's for staking and in the next for delegating :-)
I see... All good then! 😀
Way to go. Nice work there! Easy to follow!
Thanks for the feed-back!
Let's go more Hivers!

Hopefully we will get some more :-)
The course looks surprisingly good. The only problem I see is that this (because it is made in the Hive blockchain) is visible to everyone. It should only be visible to those on the course and only to those outside Hive. But that's not possible (yes, except in inleo if you pay for some special content). But I don't like Inleo by default because its front end doesn't support everything; I'm not even 100% sure you can see a YT video if you're not a premier member.
As a front end I would suggest ecency. Yes, I know there are some problems now but they will be fixed.
The good thing is that you can use the course on all the front-ends. You just need to change the url accordingly :-)
I know that, of course.
Great work guys finishing up the course. It reminds me of the great work Erik did but brings it up to date and enhances it in many ways. This is a real better way to promote Hive without spamming links everywhere and on Hive too! I guess except the 3speak part as that service doesnt work.
It amazes me that the marketing team of Hive doesnt even have an onboarding process or plan in place yet recceived so much money to date from the DHF.
I would only say perhaps it would be better to promote the Ecency frontend to sign up as there is a friendly community there to support newbies more and there isnt required to pay a fee to get support like on InLeo, plus we dont want to have newbies scammed into buying a token that has fallen 99% already.
Thanks a lot for your feed-back. It's one way of doing and I believe it doesn't look too bad :-). I regret a bit the first part with the faucets but I couldn't come up with a better way to build the course. Maybe we will do another one later on.
Yeah Im not sure about the faucets as it seems no longer up to date with the times, but looking forward to see what you update it with.
This is the best way in my opinion. After seeing the meagre amounts generated by everyone who participated in your little experiment on other crypto faucets, I think those who are onboarded to HIVE will be pleasantly surprised!
Look how small amounts I earned by clicking all those faucets... Wait, what's that? I can write a short content post on Hive and get 10c. That's already 1-day clicking income from faucets! Sign me up!
There are some good lessons here even for slightly less noobs like me. :)
I believe so too :-)
It's nice to see this course come out. The onboarding experience is tough on hive and having this will help out on the retention on Hive. I'll bookmark this incase I need it.
It's just one way to try to bring people to hive and hopefully some people will use it :-)
Nice work! Will take a look when I have some free time!
Thanks!
thanks, will check the videos later.

You are welcome!
Let's talk about a collab in spanish language, I have 30 videos made already.
That's interesting. Is it about hive?
yes, all HIVE branded and from "what is a blockchain" all the way up to more advanced topics.
