RE: 🌴 HiveFest10 Basecamp: Stay Together in The Kuala Lumpur Journal Hotel - Early Group Booking Deal!

in #hivefest3 months ago

@roelandp I have an idea and i think it’s a good one. An HBD flea market to encourage the usage of HBD as a currency IRL. I imagine with the scale of this event there must be some space for it somewhere.

Originally @tentententen and I were thinking about looking for somewhere to do a pop up shop somewhere in Kumpur Lumpur that week to potentially help us recoup the travel costs. She makes yarn goods like small pouches, earrings and decorative summer hats.

I realized that not only could we tie this in with Hivefest but that we could potentially make it bigger than just us and promote actually usage of the token.

People could bring hand-made goods, used stuff or whatever they sell for their daily work. Maybe some people could bring goods for friends who can’t make it.

Maybe if someone from @distriator or @spendhbd comes they could bring some small items from various shops in their area.

All we would need is a little corner somewhere and maybe a dozen or so tables tables (depending on how many people express interest in the idea). I think 2-4 hours in the early afternoon 2 days would be ideal. A nice thing for people to check out between speakers and other events

I think the simpler the better, I just want to see people using HBD!

Sort:  

Let’s get everyone who attends hivefest a hivefest debit card and put a little HBD on them so they can go do some shopping!!

will you be there? I would love to get a hive debit card!

hey hey! yes we are planning this kind of thing actually, also maybe @mynewlife can be of help here. I am looking for a pop-up shop / Hive Expo which should be open ideally whole HiveFest week.

Cool! Will it be one shop to rule them all with one or two people watching many peoples products? Or will we have to watch our stuff the whole time?

If the former we will gladly share the responsibility with whoever else is joining.
