Some time ago – actually, it’s been quite a while – there was a contest on stakingrewards.com. Back then, the Hive community took part, and we actually won a listing spot! That was a great moment, and Hive got officially listed on their platform.
Today, I was just casually looking for some tokens and their staking rewards, and while doing that, I ended up on stakingrewards.com again via a search engine. Of course, I was curious and wanted to check how Hive was doing there.
But to my surprise… I couldn’t find it. Our listing seems to be completely gone.
I even tried using their search – but no sign of Hive anymore. Really disappointing.

Unfortunately, I can no longer find HIVE when searching for assets:
Well... so our token was delisted from Stakingrewards - which is a shame, as we have one of the most interesting staking rewards in the crypto ecosystem.
I just went looking to find out what happened back then and what statements were made... I found quite a few things... Websites, official announcements, hive posts and more... Here are a few finds from back then - also from myself:

And finally the Announcement:
So, at X / Twitter the official tweets are very informative that the HIVE token is listed. Unfortunately, I was also unable to find our asset on the Calculator subpage: https://www.stakingrewards.com/calculator?search=HIVE
So I asked Archive.org's Wayback Machine what exactly was published in the journal back then - because I couldn't find these blog entries either, and lo and behold - I found them: https://www.stakingrewards.com/journal/hive-partnership
https://web.archive.org/web/20210726164007/https://www.stakingrewards.com/journal/hive-partnership
Well, I am currently very surprised that I can no longer find our HIVE asset there. Do you have any further details on this? Any information about it? Of course I would be very happy if our HIVE and HBD token would be displayed on Stakingrewards.com again - because with our rewards we don't have to hide!!!
"It's interesting to see all this — do you think with this kind of transparency and community support, a re-listing could be possible in the future?"
That's pretty crappy. I don't know as though it was brining a lot more people into the ecosystem, but still, if they thought it was good enough to add it, it should still be there.
