You shouldn't. I run it for you :) Why would you want to use a hivemind node, you ask?

There might be several reasons:

  • You might want to use community related APIs
  • You might want to query the database directly (I also supply direct database user credentials.)
  • You might want to serve a fat node and redirect Hivemind related requests to this node, etc...

Thanks, how are hivemind queries different from directly quering the block chain?
