Welcome to February. There is a rise in AI-generated content in nominee blogs. I am choosing not to send the HP delegation to those AI bloggers. However, I don't fault the nominator for missing it, since it is not always obvious. Please be aware and avoid nominating those AI accounts in the future.
Winners of the Contest January 2026 Edition

Rules for the next round
Again, this is an opportunity to nominate a new Hiveian to receive a delegation. The nominator and nominee will earn a 500 Hive Power delegation from me. I can accept up to 5 monthly nominations, totaling 5,000 HP (5 * 2 * 500).
The rules changed last month:
- Each nomination must be in the form of a post in the HivePizza on-chain community.
- Explain why the new-bee should be chosen for support in the post.
- You can only win once per month.
- You are not allowed to nominate yourself.
- Avoid nominating someone who won before.
The hiver you nominate must:
- have less than 500 HP
- have created their Hive account in the last six months
- be reasonably active on-chain (posting or commenting weekly or better). It can be anywhere on the chain, in any community.
- not delegate a majority of their HP to other accounts
