Remember to set your referrals!

As we're nearing the Alpha Starter Sale of Holozing, I thought I'd remind everyone who's already registered (2032 hive accounts so far), to set their referral. We announced the referral program a month ago with some more info if you missed it and wanna give it a read.
We realized that we can't hinder people from creating alt accounts to buy packs with for the 5% discount/rewards when referring someone, thus we made it available for already registered members to set a referral so it'd be fair.
Once the starter sale begins, however, you won't be able to "set a referrer" any longer and all accounts already registered by then will have their referrer or lack thereof set. The only way to refer someone from that point on will be by using your referral link and them registering on the website through it.
As far as registration methods go, we haven't worked too much on that yet as our focus has been to ship the starter sale and that focus is still ongoing. However, we have planned to include metamask login, twitter/x login and reddit login for starters, while this won't directly get you a hive account, it will count your referral. We want to avoid people abusing our registration method to farm a bunch of free hive accounts since for instance creating unique metamask eth/bsc addresses is quite easy en masse.
Once the sale is live and we've implemented different registration methods, we'll be striving to also reward people for different methods of purchase. We have some solutions planned where if people purchase a starter pack with ETH or BNB through their networks, we'll withhold their packs until they generate a hive account they link towards their account using hive keychain. This way we avoid people creating a bunch of free hive accounts and at the same time get introduced to hive and its feeless transactions when they link up. Then we will be offering referrers ways to claim their rewards, for instance if you want BNB you can claim BNB if you've connected your metamask to your Hive account, or if you want the BNB in Hive we will offer that as well and even Zing potentially.
This would allow for some healthy referring without the end user having to think too much about how they get the rewards and making UX better.
Anyway, for now, make sure you click on your profile icon on holozing.com and go to Referral Program which will open up this window and "set referrer". Keep in mind, that this can't be your own account and the account must have registered before you have and you can't change your referrer after setting it.
PS! Thanks to everyone who's set me as referrer, it's especially appreciated since we've launched this project fairly. :D
