This is a very detailed and informative update on the development of Hive. It's great to see the progress being made with the HAF API node software suite, including the optimized block log splitting and the improvements to Hivemind. I'm particularly interested in the progress on the transaction signing algorithms and the rewrite of the 2nd layer lite accounts. It seems like a lot of work is going into making Hive more robust and efficient.

I'm curious to see how the hardfork will affect the user experience and what new features will be introduced. Thanks for the update!
