Follow Friday - 365 days of Hive

in #hive3 years ago

The news

Tomorrow Hive will be a full year old. About a month after Justin Sun bought Steemit the community decided his kind of control was not what they wanted. We are still here and going strong with $Hive at its highest since just after it started. There was a brief time when it was higher, but I think we will surpass even that in time.

Chart from @coingecko

Some people have pledged to buy some extra $Hive to mark this anniversary. Will you join in? I have ready to power up.

Follow Friday

Here are some suggestions of people to check out:

  • @csgeekdev is new here and is posting some technical articles on system administration. There is always something to learn.
  • @normie.fitness provides lots of tips on what really works when it comes to exercise and diet to counter the rampant misinformation out there.
  • @sidekickmatt draws superheroes both familiar and original. His latest could be the saviour of Hive.
  • @grindle is an urban explorer who joined Hive about a year ago and is already a dolphin thanks to great posts that are fun to read.
  • @meno is someone I met in Krakow a couple of years back. He has been away from Hive for a while, but is back now with more of this thoughts on life and finance.

User discovery can be a weak point of this platform, but you can help by sharing suggestions. Why not do your own #FollowFriday posts? Let me know if you do.

The doghouse

The anti-abuse community have been working recently to cancel out the ill-gotten rewards of a network of accounts. They are using the votes of accounts that were hacked (probably by phishing).

The guilty

They all seem to be sending their rewards to this account. The amounts are not huge, but would be worse if we do nothing. This sort of activity has to be dealt with to prevent it increasing. In this case the risk of retaliation is minimal, so give it all you have!

I noticed that some of the non-posting accounts on the Brit List are voting for the above. I already made contact with a friend of one to see if they can reclaim it. They probably only have posting keys, so changing your keys will lock them out. If you see anyone you know voting for the abusers let them know.

Stay well and Hive five!

I like these follow Fridays, thank you for the heads up on that I’ve always been interested about how much phishing actually can occur as it’s not like using your Facebook account for an hour there’s actual monetary risk if you lose access :/ will check out these peeps too!

You need to be really careful with your keys. Use Keychain and/or a password manager to reduce the risk. There have been some recent cases with fake airdrops.

Definitely my man - hivesigner is a wicked feature - and with keychain I don’t mind never putting the master in and having to spend a few extra seconds pulling the account from posting to active key - security only costs time sometimes !WINE

Disregarding the early spike due to over-exuberance, I'm loving the second half of that chart. !LUV .1

Command accepted!

Serious? A whole year? Seems like just yesterday... or perhaps I'm still stuck on the day/month when everything went pandemic pear shaped!

It's not been a typical year and time has been warped by events. It could feel longer or shorter depending on your situation.

!ENGAGE 20

Real life seems very long.... Hive life seems pretty short!

Thank you for your engagement on this post, you have recieved ENGAGE tokens.

Wow, it’s tomorrow? Better figure out how to work my Bittrex account to get the little bit of Bitcoin I bought especially turned in to Hive! (I really need to learn!)

Great follow list. I’ll follow those who I don’t already!

Time has flown by, but then a lot has happened in a year. I'm excited for what comes next.

Time flies - one year passed just like that. Hopefully, we will see some good price movement and hit a $ soon.

I think we are in a pretty good place. Lots of good development going on. Just need to build the community.

Nice chart. I didn't know it was only 1 year after creation

Well the blockchain started in 2016, but we don't talk about that one :)

Hard to believe it has already been a year!

Good things take time to build... which can be a challenge in this industry where so much is centered on "When Moon?" more than the long term viability and sustainability of the underlying project.

I'd like to think that the gradual rise to $0.40+ Hive we have now is sustainable, as opposed to the early spike of exuberance that quickly deflated.

I'm all for sustainable gains. Sudden changes make me nervous. We need to keep building on what we have.
