The Hive Authentication Services have been officially launched several months ago and I would like to thank everyone who has given their support and enabled its development.
Hive Authentication Services (HiveAuth) makes it easy and secure for users to authenticate without providing any password or private key
• on any device (mobile, tablet, desktop, …)
• on any operating System (Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux, …)
• on any applications (either web, desktop or mobile)
As of today, HiveAuth provides the most simple and secure 3FA authentication process.
HiveAuth solves password problems and is phishing-proof because you no longer need to provide your password or private key to any HiveAuth-enabled app or website.
More than 10K users have used it at least once to authenticate with their favorite application and the HiveAuth infrastructure handles more than 9K requests per day (authentications or transactions). And it's growing every day!
A lot has happened since the first announcement and if you have regularly followed updates regarding HiveAuth, you know that we have never stopped working on the project, both visibly by implementing new features and behind the scenes providing help for app developers.
Here is a quick recap of the work that has been done:
Several important improvements have been made along the way:
Developer support work has also been substantial
@mintrawa for its Hive Authentication Client library (HAC)
@quochuy for its HiveAuth Client libraryLot of time has also been spent on creating and maintaining a clear and exhaustive documentation available at https://docs.hiveauth.com. It contains:
Preparation of HiveAuth presentation for several events
@jongolson and 
@taskmaster4450This funding proposal aims to further develop, support and raise awareness of HiveAuth as well as cover the costs of the underlying infrastructure.
Hive Authentication Services has become the first fully decentralized authentication service backed by a blockchain. It enables the concept of "Your Hive account is your key" to become a reality, both for the Hive ecosystem and for the "outside world".
HiveAuth opens the door to countless possibilities. It also highlights the many functionality and ease of development on Hive.
Recent presentations to audiences outside of the Hive ecosystem have clearly demonstrated that this is not only attracting audience interest in HiveAuth but also in the Hive blockchain itself.
For this new proposal, we are applying for a daily budget of 325 HBD for a period of 12 months.
There is still a lot of work to be done, in terms of development, support and communication.
