Update For Regular Content Creators - New Yearly Author Badge by @hivebuzz
Sharing HiveBuzz' update on their three badges to reward users who are active on the Hive platform: one for publishing a post every day of the week, one for publishing a post every day of the month, and one for publishing a post every day of the year. The yearly badge will only be tracked starting on January 1, 2023, and the badges are awarded based on Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Progress indicators are available to help users track their progress toward earning the badges, and users who miss a day or have not yet published a post for the current week, month, or year will see a red gauge. The article hopes that these badges will encourage users to be more engaged and committed to publishing on the Hive platform.
Quick FREECHAIN update by @lordbutterfly
Here we have a Freechain update on their film-in-the-making progress - the script for the first 20-25 minutes has been completed and approved, and the narrator parts have been recorded. This project is intended to be accessible and engaging for a wide audience, including those who may not have much prior knowledge about cryptocurrency. The rest of the script is expected to be completed in the next couple of months, after which OP and his team will focus on finishing the first third of the film and seeking connections, external support, and opportunities to showcase the content. They're also considering entering the film into various festivals, so show your support by checking and finding out more in this post! ⬆️
NEW: HIVE PHP Lib, the "Enterprise-class" PHP library to create projects. by @bambukah
This article is about the development of a new library called Hive-php-lib, which is intended to make it easier for PHP developers to work with the Hive blockchain. The library is designed to be easy to read and use, with well-documented code and clear examples. It follows established coding standards and is open source, licensed under the MIT, the library is intended to be used in production environments and will be updated regularly. It will also include shortcuts and additional functions to make data retrieval easier, and the OP plans to write more tutorials and unit tests to further improve the library. Come and check it all out here on any questions about the library, and show your support by reading more about the article! ↑
NOSTR Decentralized Social Media by @edicted
Here we've got OP discussing the potential impact of the decentralized social media protocol called NOSTR on the Hive blockchain. It's pointed out that NOSTR's adoption could be beneficial for Hive because it could help educate more people about how decentralized networks and public/private keys work, making it easier for them to understand and use Hive in the future. I gather that NOSTR is similar to Hive in many ways and could potentially serve as a gateway for new users to get involved in decentralized social media. However, it's noted that there is a risk that NOSTR could become more popular than Hive and potentially take market share away from it. Overall, OP believes that the spread of decentralized networks is a positive development and that competition between these industries could ultimately lead to the proliferation and success of decentralized technologies.
