That's a incredible amount of updates in a short amount of time. Cross-chain is the future for inter-blockchain services. Also, adding "Log in Twitter" should be good for bringing on more users.

Hi @steevc. I'm Erick and I'm the President of BEN. I've been spearheading the Hive initiative to get more of our global network of blockchain students on Hive. @CryptoFinally is a close friend of mine

I suggested renHIVE was the way to go in Dan's original tweet. The process is straightforward although maybe technically intermediate. A HIVE developer would have to make the integration using Ren's multichain

I think it's like Medium, where unless you get your post added to a major Medium publication like HackerNews, it's very difficult for people to naturally find your content. The content discovery mechanisms

Yeah that's true. I'm being told PeakD has a few good experiments going on with communities. Will be good to check out.

Good points. Yes by cancelling out I do mean counteracting their vote. At the end of the day, the main solution is to have more good actors outweighing the bad ones. A DAO only votes on the majority vote

Yes it is Bernie. People always say to just ignore him so I never thought much of it. I didn't realize it was a real problem that some people don't post or comment on Hive out of fear of being targeted.

Yeah I think the only way is to over time encourage more good actors join the platform to positively upvote to reduce the power of of malicious downvoters. I wouldn't advocate for removing anyone's stake

I didn't know communities had that capability, definitely will take a closer look as I think it helps to address my concerns for growth.

I think that is a great answer and exactly the kind of solution we should be helping build out. Everyone has a place on the Hive blockchain as it belongs to everyone. But it's difficult to get everyone

boom bit the bait

It did work very well for YouTube. YouTube rewards a very particular kind & style of content, and YouTubers that strayed away from that style were punished by the YouTube algorithms. The difference

Thanks @yabapmatt Hi @themarkymark, I reblogged the STEMGeeks hackathon from a few months back It was exactly what I was thinking of when I made this post. If you're planning to do another one I will also

I was hoping not to be one of the largest power-ups. Hopefully more people power up as well.

Thanks Sid for the analysis. Found it very useful. Did not that Publish0x was hiring writers, nor that their payouts were very low. Although, a lot of content on Hive that performs the best is trade talk

This is awesome. Gave 100% upvotes to each project. Hope to get more involved next time around.

Nice, finally a dolphin.

That's fair. Nothing is strictly increasing or strictly decreasing. The only guarantee is high volatility. I do my best to buy more at local lows and sell a bit at local highs.

My Steem powerdowns happen every Thursday. They started on the Thursday right before Friday. I wasn't willing to take the risk on Steem's status after the fork, even if it meant missing out on some HIVE

Sure the DAF doubled overnight but unless all of that HIVE is converted to HBD, it could all go back down overnight. Or double and double the DAF again. Even just 9 million is a lot in developer funds
