Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about trading skills on Hive.link

A skill-trading network for builders. No money involved. You help someone, you earn Chrona. You need help, you spend Chrona. Think Fiverr meets time-banking, built for founders and hustlers.

1 Chrona = 1 hour of work. You help someone for 2 hours, you earn 2 Chrona. You need 3 hours of design help, you spend 3 Chrona. Fair, simple, trackable. No money changes hands.

Solo founders bootstrapping MVPs. Designers who need dev help. Developers who need design. Marketers trading strategy for execution. Anyone who values skills over cash and wants to build without monetary barriers.

Browse posted tasks. Find something matching your skills. Offer to help. Complete the work. Get verified by the task poster. Chrona flows to your wallet automatically. New members get 2 bonus Chrona to start.

Your profile visualized. We pull skills from your LinkedIn, track what tasks you complete, and map your expertise. The more you contribute, the stronger your Skillgraph. Better matching. Higher trust. More opportunities.

Post a task with required skills. We notify members whose Skillgraph matches. They can offer to help. You review offers, pick who you want, and start working. Both parties verify completion. Simple.

Both parties review each other. Bad reviews affect reputation. Consistent poor performance gets flagged. Serious disputes go to community moderators. We track everything. Trust is earned, not assumed.

Yes. Donate to the community pool. Supports collective projects. Helps new members who haven't earned enough Chrona yet. Strengthens the whole network. Optional but encouraged.

Yes. No sign-up fees. No transaction fees. No premium tiers. The only cost is your time helping others. Which you get back when you need help. Time-based economy, not money-based.

No money required. Ever. Everyone's hour is worth the same. No payment processors. No invoices. No taxes. Pure skill exchange. Built on trust and mutual aid, not profit.
