Promoting Hive

in #hive-1503293 years ago

Yesterday @belemo held a Twitter spaces about Hive and it’s ecosystem and it was amazing. Thank you for that, you should do more of that and bring some of your big friends to come speak too. It was beautiful that a user “Undefined” (I don’t recall his handle, I think he’s a dev) was so kind to give insights and offer help and suggestions to noobs like myself.

The interesting part for me was that hive is a community based ecosystem and everyone has a part to play in building it out to what it’s meant to be.

I wish more people knew about hive, the freedom it offers, the fun behind it, the people already in it (too nice and always willing to help newbies). Until then, each of us play a vital role in the PR of hive.

Yesterday, a tweet from the 3speaktv handle highlighted what hive has had for years but a podcast that recently added it is being praised for it. I understand that there isn’t like a budget for advertising and each developer or big user may not have the reach of an influencer to bring more noise to hive which means we’re still very early and when people realize, hive will melt faces. Eventually, they’ll know, eventually they’ll run to us to onboard them and i am looking forward to that day. I do what i can everyday to tell people about it, a friend signed up yesterday ☺️☺️

As a human, I just wished the hive ecosystem got more recognition for all it has going, but maybe partially so i can earn more from it😂, jk. From having the biggest P2E in the space with splinterland, to being early on web3 and NFTs, it doesn’t get enough credit.

While the spaces went on, a friend sent me a dm asking about hive central database that @belemo mentioned. He wondered, what happens when the central server is down? I tried to give an answer about hive having different layers but I am sure I didn’t do justice enough so, I’ll let @belemo and whoever else has a better answer to this question take a stab.

Here’s the question 👇🏾

P.S This post was written using the Ecency mobile app. I am attempting to get things done without necessary using the gadgets I resonate better with. So yaaay, thanks @iskafan for the nudge ☺️☺️

Thank you for reading 😊

There's no "central" database. The database in that statement referred to the blockchain that is just a collection of information. Hive has witnesses that validate transactions in the way you have Bitcoin miners.

Witnesses are decided through a stake based voting system. So there's no point of failure, since it is decentralised.

Cool, i will make sure he reads your reply

Awesome.

Hey, @moquero , did you finally dump me, your devices, and Hive without a proper good bye to me? I am heartbroken 😭😭😭

Hehehehe... Where are you? Please be back soon. 🥺

Lol. You are welcome. I am more happy that you are taking my advice and doing what you got to do with what you have. It's the beauty of life itself, being able to make do with the things we have at any given time.

Glad you enjoyed the twitter space and you understood the benefits that we early adopters of hive have over everyone else that would be joining in the future.

The question. I think I have seen belemo answer it below. I am interested in the answer too.. so I'll go check it out. Thanks for sharing this. 💞💞

I hope you'll write again tomorrow 😁🥺. Looking forward to it. ❤️❤️

Amazing, crazy how i was so early with Belemo when it was steemit back in 2018, i think i had some early issues and racial slurs on steemit that made me immediately quit, my account is quite old, but my activities are like that of a newbie. Back then, I only got my masters key, while listening to the session yesterday, i went on peakd and retrieved my other keys and changed my recovery account. So much to learn, so little time.
I also went through the post, couldn’t get my discord to work last night. So attempting again today 🤞🏽😊

Don't worry, take everything slowly and gradually, soon, you'll be the one educating others on the ways of the platform. I believe in you. 🤗
