in my opinion its a quite expensive thing for a block explorer.
Can you tell us why you need two more additional developer and the payment increasement from 390 to 590 needs to be rectified.
We have an extensive roadmap ahead for above projects.
i would like to see your goals first before i would agree on such a big payment.
other question:
Wouldnt you agree on having an "on-demand" developement Team? Like when something really needs, you may write up an proposal for that specific.
i dont see paying 3 grand for 6 People a month without having clear roadmaps.
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback, @rivalzzz.
We’ve now updated the proposal to include a preliminary roadmap outlining our planned milestones and deliverables — please take a look above.
The budget increase primarily reflects the expansion of our development team (two additional engineers) and higher infrastructure costs required to sustain and accelerate progress across multiple HAF-related projects.
Our growing team is fully dedicated to building open-source tools that are essential for Hive’s long-term transparency, analytics, and ecosystem growth. We’re continuing the essential groundwork initiated by blocktrades & team within the HAF ecosystem, and we’re proud to actively contribute to this shared vision.
These tools are not just “nice-to-have” additions — they form the analytical and operational backbone that will make Hive more transparent, accessible, and developer-friendly. Having additional developers allows us to speed up delivery, address community feedback faster, and ensure Hive continues to stand as a model of openness and data integrity in the blockchain space.
While “on-demand” development can work for isolated fixes, our current scope spans long-term, interconnected projects (Explorer UI, Balance Tracker, HAF BE, HAF Stats, etc.) that require continuous collaboration and development stability. This approach ensures consistent progress rather than fragmented, stop-start efforts.
