While the weather was being more Dutch than ever on the Sunday of Hivefest, this is also the day where there is no program during the day and people are a bit on their own and choosing activities bij themselves.
The general gist of everyone feels a bit slow and at the Volkshotel, laptops are taken out for some work here and there but also because it isn't really appealing to explore the city at the moment due to the pouring misery out of the sky
And this also the perfect moment to think about Hivefest yesterday and everything that came around with it.
Since we are always doing something with music in our house, there was a later part of the day regarding music that I was really intrigued about.
Not many people understand how everything around it works (including me!) but getting a modular synthesizer to produce something which is actually nice to listen to is a skill on itself.
Did you hear that a lot of samples from Hive users voices were actually integrated in the music?? I heard myself in there!
And not only it was enjoyable to listen to the combo of @tdctunes and @jux is fun because they are both really nice people. That is cool thing about Hivefest, seeing the faces of everyone who just enjoyes working on the same kind of things but in a different form.
Speaking of @jux and @risingstargame ..it was cool to see the amount of energy and passion he is putting in the game and trying to get it working self sustainable.
Indeed this is the challenge all p2e games are in and openly speaking about this is always a good thing
And uhhh...Raves?? Yes please!
Another talk which really grabbed me was the talk of @arcange about Hiveauth which seems like a super easy and safe way to log in and use Hive on the daily.
No filling in email adresses, no filling in keys..I'm enthousiastic and super siked to try this as this could be one of the solutions for the issues a lot of rookie users always have. Complicated logins and because of this weak security aka easy preys for scams.
And last but not least. I was extremely intrigued by the very much inspiring talk of @brianoflondon talking about the integration of lightning in Hive and Podping and fetching notifications out of the jungle of data.
As said, these are cases that people will actually want to use and can bring so much to the chain. But all of this complicated stuff was brought in understandable chunks of information, so kudos for that
Sorry for the blurry face dude, not sure if being anon is a thing or not?
So all in all, it was a good day with loads of talks. And the after events?
That is for a different time and a different place. Hive, I was impressed again!
Thaaanks a lot for this report, @karinxxl! It's especially worthy for the ones of us who couldn't even catch most of the Hivefest communications when they were broadcasted online (the "Rising Star" presentation, for instance, took place at 2 am here, in El Salvador, and I lacked energies to stay awake, lol).
It'd be awesome if the next #HiveFest could unfold here - we're almost in the center of Latin America, and for sure at the heart of the world's cryptoeconomy, hehe.
With @brianoflondon's Hiveligthning allowing all Salvadorans to convert in a jiffy our Hive or HBD into BTC, thus being able to use it in a shop next door, we're to a certain extent in a "daily lHive" dream turned into reality 😋.
Yes! I agree! lot's going on with BTC in El Salvador and neighboring jurisdictions 😋, I'm sure Hive Fest 2023 would be a blast with lots of footage of HIVE community members paying for everything using v4v. I love sharing this video I made using @v4vapp to pay for my pizza on Bitcoin Pizza Day:
Brooo, it's a pity I find out that Tweet just now, haha. I'll have to be vigilant on May 22, 2023, to catch the - eventual - next "sat back" offer from "They call me Dan". I can't count how many pizzas we've purchased here through BTC - to the point we can call them "Bitzzas" 😁.
And yes, crypto wise, the only reason why I've heard the Netherlands being mentioned lately is their arrest of a "Tornado Cash" developer, lol.
Well, I just learned about this while being at hivefest honestly. Didn't know about it at all, but having a look into what the whole story actually is. Weird!
It's been an ugly judicial "first": to arrest someone not for having laundered money or committed any infraction to the law, but for the sole fact of having contributed to the code of a blockchain related tool, that everyone uses under his own responsibility.
On such a basis, when the E.U. will have launched their "digital euro" panopticoin / CBDC, I guess that the HBD coders would better settle in another part of the world than the European Union or the USA.
Yeah and then pay with hive lightning. This would be fantastic future stuff!
Absolutely!
Have you seen if there are many shops or restaurants where BTC payments are accepted, in Amsterdam?
Well, I also didnt see all other presentations and because people wrote about it I will look back some of the live streams.
The feed is a good info source!
True! I'm also catching up through the recorded streams (will check if they are on 3Speak, instead of using "YouTube" 😊).
I really liked the idea of "Raves". I think it's great how the small team of Risingstargame manages to constantly present something new for over two years now.
I also really liked the first presentation by @smooms from @hiq.magazine and I was surprised by the @coldbeetrootsoup which tasted very good to me, even if rootbeet is not really my vegetable of choice.
It was nice having a !BEER with you.
Agree. With such small measures such a fun running game is cool!
I missed the hiq talk honestly, not really a morning person here haha. Was nice meeting you dude!
Thanks for the great write up and pictures!
Btw I'm not sure if @jux is anything to do with the Jux we know. I think his personal Hive account is @atomcollector
Anyway - it was super nice to meet you at HiveFest!
Sunny funny because I also had no idea this was the same guy hahaha. Good to know and indeed it was super nice to meet you and here a bit about London life!
Better come to London and experience it yourself soon before the UK sinks!
Im afraid they wont let me out anymore :D
Such great opportunity to participate in the #HiveFest, I've been tuned by YouTube.
Nice you were able to tune in on youtube dude, that is also a good one!
Dear @karinxxl, it's been a pleasure to meet you in Amsterdam. I wish we add more time to talk together. Maybe we will meet again in a local meetup made by the NL community. That's my greatest wish. 🌹
The hotel afternoon talk was a good one but indeed too short. Local meetup will happen soon i guess so will see us there!
Hive in a church struck by lightening and rising as the new star , a bit what saturday was for me. Impressed again and for sure this was not the last hivefest.
Had a great time , missed closing dinner but thats fine
Leuk je gezien te hebben
See you online on a blog or in the comments
Impressed by a lot as well. It was your first one ofcourse, yay a first!
Yeah you missed the closing one, bunmer it was fun and nice. Its a wrap! Recovery time here!
It was great to meet you all and at the same learning so much! See you next year and hopefully we're going to talk a bit more in person then :P
Im not counting these 5 seconds that we were passing by in a brief moment as a decent meetup so this deserves a retry for sure next time!!
I hope you had blast. Almost home here
Haha you pointed it out without any regard xD yeah let's do it!
