♦️Hive allows the application layer to capture value without charging unnecessary costs to the user. 0 fee.

$Hive 😍

Ecency has never: - Run a token sale - Taken VC funding - Sold user data - Run advertisements - Banned a user's account - Removed user content - Broken a promise on our roadmap 9 years. Clean record.

Hive allows creators, communities, and builders to design experiences where everyday interaction, identity, reputation, the dual economy, and dapps can function as a living system.

Hive is not just a social blockchain; it is a foundation for frequent engagement, community continuity, and economic models at the application layer.

Projects that launched the same year as Ecency (2016) and are now dead: - Steemit (sold, declining) - Peepeth (gone) - Minds (pivoted) - Sapien (gone) - Sola (gone) Projects from 2016 still building strong: - Ecency ✓ Longevity is the ultimate trust signal.

The base layer of a blockchain should enable the development of applications, not consume them. That's what we believe at #Hive.

The EVM integration work is mostly complete and working end to end on the Magi testnet. We are going through final testing and should have it ready soon to release with $DASH. We're also building ZK proof verification for the EVM integration. In plain terms: right now every validator node on the network would need to run a full Ethereum node alongside Magi, which adds significant hardware cost and complexity. ZK proofs solve this. This keeps validator requirements lean and affordable as the network grows, which matters a lot when you're supporting dozens of chains. Hardware cost that multiplies per validator, per chain doesn't scale which is already visible with other projects solving similar problems to the ones we are trying to solve in the crosschain space. Finally, work is underway on the Incentive Pendulum, the mechanism that enables validators to earn fees from swaps. This is one of the key remaining pieces before we can meaningfully grow our liquidity pools.

"But how do I know Ecency is legit?" Fair question. Here's how to verify everything yourself:

From Hive Creators, we continue working to offer in #Hive: - experience packages - dapps directory by tour - Hive Creators Labs as a navigation layer - docs more oriented to use and not only to architecture - builder and product showcase

In crypto, everyone has a roadmap. We have a track record. 2016: launched 2017: first apps 2018-19: built through bear market 2020: rebrand + web app 2021: 260K monthly visitors 2022-23: kept shipping 2024-25: top 2 Hive frontend Actions > words.

At HiveCreators, we don't want to build closed projects. We want to create open infrastructure: ideas that the community can review, question, and improve. It's not about selling promises. It's about inviting builders to validate whether something deserves to be built on #Hive.

Hive is a blockchain built for creation. ♦️ Write a blog ♦️ Launch a community ♦️ Use or build social apps ♦️ Play games ♦️ Manage crypto ♦️ Create projects

@nftloxbuild could introduce a new way of representing digital asset ownership on ♦️Hive: a protocol-level self-custody approach that does not rely on smart contracts and could reduce architecture maintenance costs by up to 70%.

A photographer joined Ecency few months ago. She was posting the same photos she shared on Instagram - landscapes, street photography, portraits. Difference: on Instagram she had 8K followers and earned $0. On Ecency she earned $360+ in 6 months. Same content. Different system

Hive, as a blockchain, has a strong presence in the creator economy.

We asked 100 creators what they want most: 1. To be seen (not hidden by algorithms) 2. To be paid (not "maybe someday") 3. To be safe (not one ban away from losing everything) Ecency delivers all three. Since 2016.
