MARKETHIVE’S NEW INTERFACE - AN INITIAL OVERVIEW ILLUSTRATED

MARKETHIVE'S NEW INTERFACE - AN INITIAL OVERVIEW ILLUSTRATED

The Markethive Social Market Broadcasting Network becomes more prominent daily as the blockchain-driven ecosystem for entrepreneurs with a non-adversarial, bi-partisan free speech ethic and the collaborative culture we rarely see on social media platforms today.

The whole interface is streamlined and purposely created in a horizontal fashion with minimal to no advertising, so it is not overwhelming for the average and new user. So many websites, blogs, and digital media articles are so cluttered up with vertical side columns and advertisements, making it annoying and virtually impossible to read or comment on the site. 

Markethive has always been a pioneer and ahead of the curve, initiating a social network before social media became a thing, starting with Veretekk in the nineties. It is a Divine inspiration, a vision that is coming to light. It’s one of integrity and can command authority with its clean, polished new look and navigation. Read More
