# The News Although the [$HIVE](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/hive) price is not zooming up it is good to see it staying ahead of the legacy crapcoin. Talking of crap, it is amusing to see our old nemesis Justin Sun [fighting](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/apr/22/world-liberty-financial-billionaire-lawsuit-trump) a Trump crypto project. I can hope they both lose. ![Prices from @coingecko](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steevc/23uFuVPWzHZNXs3RFZuR2yGHse3vV6LJ6tAuN4L1SvRzZaLe4PV6PybQKmKSzQit1ZYdJ.png) Meanwhile on the chain that matters, @asgarth [reported](/hive-139531/@asgarth/peakd-updates-from-the-last-two-weeks) on @peakd developments and @ecency have [plenty](/hive-125125/@ecency/transfers-savings-recurring-payments-everything) going on too, including a [new wallet](/hive-139531/@ecency/introducing-hive-keeper). Security is vitally important and @louis88 has been [using AI](/hive-139531/@louis88/1-month-claude-ai-a-report-of-progress) to find issues with various projects. There are projects like [Mythos](https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/apr/22/what-is-anthropic-mythos-ai-threat-global-cybersecurity) that do this very well and you can bet that the bad guys will exploit anything they can. # Friday Follows * @akipponn is having fun with [3d printing](/hive-189641/@akipponn/my-first-two-weeks-with-3d-printer-3d2). This is relatively cheap now. Of course we have [a community](/c/hive-103035/created) for it. * As well as being a prolific musician @ravenmus1c is [donating](/charity/@ravenmus1c/11-hive-money-donated-to-ankerhunde-ev-or-nft-sales-will-go-into-donation) crypto income to animal charities. It would be great to see more charity activity on Hive. On the old Tsu platform charities could get verified so that people knew they were legitimate and be confident of donating. * We have lots of people sharing their exercise activity here. @normie.fitness likes to get into what actually works. He has plenty of experience in this area. * @cutehive.com have a [tool](/hive-139531/@cutehive.com/introducing-hive-witness-monitor-making-witness-evaluation-and-voting-decisions-simple-and-intuitive) to let you check on witness activity. You want your votes to go to those who are doing a good job. * Another source of Hive news is @hivetoday. They are also on Mastodon where I follow them. If you use other social platforms then please support Hive projects there so that they get more exposure. * [Hive Open Days](https://hiveopendays.com/) in Alicante is next week. @tibfox is creating [badges](/hive-139531/@tibfox/107690e7) that let people easily create Hive accounts. # The Dog House This is not calling out anyone in particular, but my general advice to people on Hive is to act like a human. With so many bots around you do not want to be mistaken for one. If your comments just recycle parts of a post then they can look fake. Go for quality rather than quantity with your comments to actually have conversations with people. That is more likely to lead to good results. If you use 'AI' then make it clear that you do. I get that people speak different languages and so may use some tools to communicate, but always be genuine. Form communities related to where you are and what you are into. It only costs about 3 $HIVE to create a community and this gives you some options for moderation to keep it on topic. Just be sure to back up your keys! # The End Are you still motivated by Hive? I know the price is not great, but there is nothing quite like it. I will always say that it is not perfect, but it has potential. I get frustrated by other platforms, but also by some of the attitudes here. I do not have to agree with everyone, but I can do something to help others. Hive five!
