Follow Friday: Unite the chains!

in #hive18 days ago

The News

The markets still look fairly flat although $HIVE dropped slightly. You can always show support for it. It only takes a few votes to get that rocket flying.

Vote for Hive!

$LEO is on the way up again and may overtake the legacy crapcoin that has no real development. I cannot post over there on my main account due to censorship, but maybe others can persuade people to come to Hive where they will find more to enjoy.

Hive Analytics is a new site that provides all sorts of data on the state of Hive. It looks like more reports will be added soon. We need to be aware of how we are progressing and the challenges we face.

Friday Follows

  • @crimsonclad does not post often, but then she is travelling the world telling people about Hive. She at least does an annual report. Getting noticed in the hyped-up world of crypto is not easy. Hive has a solid track record of providing a platform for people to blog as well as all the other things you can do here.
  • One thing that may help is to get other crypto projects posting here. We already had @dashpay and more recently @digibytecoin. Now we have the wallet app @zypto who have integrated $HIVE. Hive could become a hub to follow your favourite projects without the fear of getting shut down by over-zealous social media companies.
  • If we want people to build on Hive then we need good development tools. The old beem Python library is not being developed any more, but now we have hive-nectar from @thecrazygm. Support for the legacy chains has been dropped to focus on Hive that is evolving fast.
  • The @snapie mobile app for posting short Snaps has made it into the Apple Store.
  • As someone with solar panels I am interested to see how others do with such technology around the world. @holoz0r marks a year with his in Australia.
  • If you are travelling or visited somewhere interesting then be sure to pin it on the map with @worldmappin.

On the communities front:

  • SkateHive is really active on Snaps with lots of little videos.
  • BuzzParty covers Hive events.
  • HiveFest will get busy as the event kicks off in Kuala Lumpur in a month.
  • Comics seems quiet right now, but it is a place for fans of that medium.

The End

I have seen too much negativity lately so will skip The Dog House this time. I always say that Hive is not perfect. People will try to abuse it and people with power will act as they see fit. They tend to be very independent and hard to influence. This is a fairly small community and bad behaviour sticks out. If someone does not like what you do then you have to decide on what could make it better.

I tend to focus on what I can do to help others on Hive. I have set up communities and some small curation projects. If you just focus on personal gain then you may not get far as you need to work with the community to get anywhere.

Enjoy your weekend and Hive five!

Thanks for the mention :) Those solar panels are running my hive witness node no worries at all, completely free to run, apart from my initial hardware start up costs - which were paid off years ago :)

I think this is the first time I've looked at your Friday Follows and have been aware of all the featured material. :)

I think a few Hive nodes are solar-powered. People can't really argue that it's an energy hog.

I try to find stuff to include each week, but it's just for fun and a bonus if people find it useful.

Thanks for the shout-out! We're happy to keep posting to Hive and will have some exclusive giveaways for Hive users only in the near future.

Cool! Have you had much luck getting Dash folk to move over? Hive is my main social platform and I don't use things like reddit much.

On and off. The INLEO censorship drama may have spooked some off though (especially when our posts got downvoted).

The Hive infighting is not helpful, but downvotes are not necessarily censorship. I think it was more about removing rewards given by version accounts, but I was not involved.

Of course. Much more nuanced than that. But the public perception may have had an effect.

No worries, we'll keep onboarding. We're also planning a giveaway to Hive users in the future.

Thanks for the shout out!

You are very welcome. I know some people who are into coding on Hive.

The price is so low right now. I don’t even know where to buy these days that’s easy and trusted? Any suggestions?

I've not bought any lately, so I'm not sure of the best options. It's something you would expect to see discussed more. I've been selling some game assets to build up my HP.

BTW I think I'll be getting a 3d printer soon.

Interesting. Yeah I’d like to see more conversations about trusted places that folk use to buy and sell Hive.

I’ve never sold any Hive (or Steem as it was then), ever. So I’ve no current plan or idea as to what I’d do if I wanted to cash some out.

I've not sold any in a while. I did via my Wirex card, but I've not used that in ages. You can buy vouchers for various things with crypto too. At some point I will cash out to treat myself.

This was enlightening, so to a technophope and crypto illiterate......If I get a zypto credit card, then when hive hits ATH, I can buy stuff and the twat in hmrc won't know about it?

I really don't know how much the tax man watches these things. I spent crypto previously on a different card that allowed it.

Just that doing self assessment one never knows. Probably Ok with a direct payment credit card

I missed this zypto thing. Cheers for alerting me to it!

We need these little wins. People are working behind the scenes to make it happen.

I played around with the tools on that site the other day and they are pretty cool. I can see how someone who is really into data could have a lot of fun there.

I like to analyze the progress of my HIVE account, and I use Hive Stats fir this. Thus, I will also check Hive Analytics. Thank you ;)

I support Hive with a smile, so that good news will come.

Hopefully with fed cut hive might see some pump

I pressed the rocket 🚀 button on Coingeco. It's down to 60% now!

Thanks for all the news about Hive. We get a good overall idea!

LEO is showing its class! That's awesome!

!DUO


You just got DUO from @hafiz34.
They have 1/1 DUO calls left.

@steevc, I paid out 6.642 HIVE and 0.000 HBD to reward 15 comments in this discussion thread.

Please ask your gay racist friend to leave me alone I'm not interested https://hive.blog/hive-124838/@oldsoulnewb/re-kgakakillerg-t2vylt
