Five years on the blockchain, what a wild ride! And here's to another five years, or more!
I will dispense with the usual 'recap' style of post, so prevalent on the blockchain, where I state that I have 'x' number of followers, 'y' HivePower, and 'z%' growth on my account in the past year. Suffice it to say that I am still alive & kickin' on the blockchain. My number of posts has diminished quite a bit in this calendar year because of increased activity in answering questions about Hive in various Discords, helping people recover compromised accounts, assisting with a couple additional projects, researching plagiarized posts, challenges in my personal life, etc.
All of the changes to the Hive blockchain within the past year have been amazing and are a great testament to the vibrancy of our platform! There have been many new dapps launched, changes to the code & underlying structure of the chain to make things run smoother, additional projects begun, new Layer-2 tokens brought into existence, and quite a number of dedicated users have come on board.
BIG THANKS to the core development team and all those who develop dapps, projects, marketing strategies, and work to safeguard the security and integrity of our blockchain. The teamwork we have here is amazing!
Many thanks to 
So, have a piece of cake with me, covered with yummy honey from our Hive and celebrate the richness of our ecosystem with all the options of blogging, games, gambling, arbitrage, investing, and many more great things in our future together. Here's to great, exciting things to come! 🥂
