Ecency is one of the most widely used applications in the Hive ecosystem, operating across mobile, web, and supporting multiple services.

Next week we release something new from the Ecency team. It is not a feature, a wallet or an editor. It is a game. It is called Honeyback and it is a kind little flying game. Why a game and why this one

Excited to share new version of Hivesigner. This important OAuth2 service been serving dozen requests daily, connecting dozen people safely with their favorite apps on Hive. Few years ago, we re-wrote

Version 4.4.2 of the Ecency web app is live on ecency.com. It is a large release, so instead of listing every change, here is what actually turns up in your day. The headline is that curation stopped being

Version 3.5.9 of the Ecency mobile app is on the App Store and Google Play. It lands about three weeks after 3.5.8, so it is a smaller release, with three things worth opening the app for plus one fix

For a very long time now, I've always felt that Hive is like a pyramid, or perhaps more accurately, a layer cake. Those at the top seem to have all the cream, those in the middle are doing OK with the

Curation has been the quiet part of Ecency for years. It runs every day, it touches thousands of people and almost none of the rules were written down anywhere. That was our mistake. So here is the whole

Most of the traffic a good blog post gets over its life does not come from the day you publish it. It comes months later, from people typing a question into a search engine and finding your answer. Hive

Every post you publish on Hive gets written into a block, and every block is produced by a server somebody volunteered to run. Those somebodies are called witnesses, and here is the part most people miss:

Every editor on the internet now has an AI button, and most of them make the same pitch: you do nothing, and the machine writes the post. Ecency's AI writing assistant makes the opposite bet. It will not

You can write the best post in your community and still lose most of your readers before they read a word. In a feed, people are not deciding whether your post is good. They cannot know that yet. They

Email digests are live on Ecency. Anyone can subscribe to a creator, a community or Ecency itself and get new posts delivered to their inbox, weekly or monthly. If you write on Hive, you now have a mailing

Every Hive account ships with a real crypto wallet. Not a widget bolted onto a blog, an actual wallet with balances, transfers, savings, and staking, live from the day your account exists. On Ecency it

Version 3.5.8 of the Ecency mobile app is out for iOS and Android. It is the first release since 3.5.7 in early July and it is a big one, so instead of listing every change, here is what actually shows

The blog side of Ecency 4.4.1 got big enough to need its own post. The short version: there are now three answers to the question "where does my blog run". One of them costs nothing and does

Ecency is probably the most comprehensive Hive dApp with a web site, desktop application, a phone app and app for short form posting called waves. Its phone app is the most used mobile app for a general

Version 4.4.1 of the Ecency web app is live on ecency.com. It is a large release, so rather than list every change, here is what actually shows up in your day: a video feed inside Waves, three new ways

New creators often put all their effort into publishing posts and barely think about comments. I think that is backwards. Especially on Hive. When you are starting out, you probably don't have much of

Every comment you leave, every vote you cast, every wave you post turns your username into a link. People click it. What they find in the next three seconds decides whether you gain a follower or a back

Votes and rewards tell you what people were willing to reward. They do not tell you what people actually read. A post can earn well and still be skimmed, or earn little and hold every reader to the last
