The blockchain technology is changing our lives, opening new opportunities and improving already existing ones. Arguably one of the most innovative technology of the internet age; the blockchain technology has spanned across numerous areas of human lives and have dominated the internet for the past couple of years as different blockchain projects have evolved over the years. Presenting different concepts, these projects have gained utility in many real-life sectors (including the health sector). Cryptocurrencies attached to some of these blockchains plays notable roles in the global economy and financial systems.
Social media haven’t been left behind in the blockchain revolution. The idea of sharing thoughts and intellectual creations on an immutable platform where everyone have equal voices and ideas are shared without censorship attacks from interested third parties have appealed to many. Embracing this invention, blockchain-based social media platforms have brought together many different people from all works of life and different locations, thus creating a community of people.
Building communities and encouraging the development of the culture of communism is a global goal. Social media serves as a tool towards the pursuit of this goal with different social media platforms giving birth to a number of successful social groups and communities of people bound by a common goal. The HIVE blockchain upholds the community culture and was born out of the zeal to maintain decentralization and encourage the sharing of worthwhile information and ideas devoid of censorship and mutations.
With the objective of building a healthy and interactive community on the hive blockchain; WE are pleased to announce the creation of HIVEAFRICA, an initiative to encourage Africans on the hive platform.
HIVEAFRICA was created with support from @theycallmedan Cofounder of @threespeak
BIRTH OF A NEW TAG
Africa is a continent rich in culture and traditions with a historical value for communalism and communism, this is evidenced by the proliferation of tribes with related cultural history and bound by beliefs and genetic similarities.
The internet age have also seen the rise of Africans on the internet and on every social media platforms. As the number of enthusiastic content creators grows on the hive blockchain, HIVEAFRICA is determined to encourage this stream of content creators as they strive to make their creativity shine on the platform.
The HIVEAFRICA tag will serve as a means of identifying posts made with the African community on hive in mind by Africans as well as other members of the platform. The HiveAfrica community and its members will support this tag.
Introducing Africans to the blockchain
Despite being around for over a decade, the concept of blockchain technology is yet to be fully understood by Africans. Being relatively slower than many other continents in terms of adoption of technology, many Africans who are relatively competent in the use and social media still doubt the credibility of blockchain and cryptocurrency projects such as Hive. Being created in Africa for Africans, HIVEAFRICA will set the pace for Africans on social media to allow them understand better these concepts and take active part in it. As a continent filled with creative people, the presence of Africans is bound to be felt in any community which they are active part of.
HiveAfrica is poised to build an active community of people who are pretty new and also people who are used to the blockchain as a social media tool.
Promoting Africans on the Hive Blockchain
Having brought together Africans on the hive blockchain, HIVEAFRICA, its community and the Hive community will support African content creators who create original contents on the Hive blockchain. Member support through post curation and author promotion to encourage content creators from the content of Africa will form the bulk of promotional tactics by HIVEAFRICA for its members as well as other members of the hive community. The HIVEAFRICA tag will aid easy discovery of the authors and they contents.
We have created a curation trail to grow our rewards and build a good reward scheme for members of the HIVEAFRICA community.

Uniting Africans on the Hive blockchain
Unity in diversity, a vital concept in global unity, despite the relatively diverse African culture which steams from the numerous cultural groups all over the continent, Africans have continued to work together on different occasions to achieve a common goal. HIVEAFRICA works towards improving the cordial relationships between Africans and African countries.
The goals of HIVEAFRICA cannot be achieved by HiveAfrica, community action wins again, a community can only be built by a community. Join the HiveAfrica community and be a part of the new community. Support the first African community on the hive blockchain
