Weāve officially created a unified cross-poster that lets us publish a single post to Hive, Blurt, and Steemitāall at once, using one script.
But thatās not all. Every time we post, it automatically buys a small amount of PEK token on Hive Engine to support the PeakeCoin ecosystem.
poster = CrossPlatformPoster()
poster.setup_platforms(credentials)
poster.create_post(title, body, tags)
This little object does a LOT:

We're looking for builders, writers, and coders to help expand this into:
Want to test it? Run it on a Raspberry Pi or server with:
python3 cross_poster.py
Make sure your .json or .env config is set with your Hive, Blurt, and Steemit usernames and posting keys.

# Hello from CrossPoster with Nectar & PEK! šš°
This is a test post created using the cross-platform posting script with **hive-nectar** and **nectarengine** APIs, now featuring automatic **PEK token purchases**!
## New Features with Nectar & PEK Integration:
- ā
**Fast Performance**: Optimized blockchain interactions
- ā
**Native Hive Support**: Built specifically for Hive ecosystem
- ā
**Blurt Compatibility**: Full support via NectarEngine
- ā
**Modern Architecture**: Clean, efficient API design
- ā
**Enhanced Reliability**: Better error handling and node management
- šŖ **Automatic PEK Purchases**: Buys 0.0000001 PEK tokens with every post!
## PEK Token Integration:
- **Auto-Purchase**: Every time you use this cross-poster, it automatically buys 0.0000001 PEK tokens
- **Market Integration**: Uses Hive Engine API to get current market prices
- **Smart Execution**: Places buy orders at competitive prices to ensure execution
- **Supporting PeakeCoin**: Helps support the PEK token ecosystem with micro-purchases
## Technical Improvements:
- **Hive**: Uses hive-nectar for native Hive blockchain operations + Hive Engine integration
- **Blurt**: Uses nectarengine for efficient Blurt interactions
- **Steem**: Direct API integration for legacy compatibility
- **Resource Monitoring**: Real-time VP and RC checking
- **Error Handling**: Comprehensive exception management
- **PEK Market Data**: Real-time PEK token price and volume information
### Performance Benefits:
1. **Faster posting** - Optimized transaction broadcasting
2. **Better connectivity** - Smart node selection and failover
3. **Lower resource usage** - Efficient memory and CPU utilization
4. **Enhanced stability** - Robust error recovery mechanisms
5. **Automatic PEK support** - Seamless token purchase integration
### PEK Token Features:
- š¹ **Market Price Discovery**: Real-time price checking
- šÆ **Smart Order Placement**: Competitive pricing for execution
- š **Market Information**: Volume, bid/ask spread monitoring
- š° **Micro-Investment**: Small, consistent PEK accumulation
Happy posting to the decentralized web with PEK support! šāØš
