HiveFest is exactly NOT just about gathering at conference halls. It's about coming together, ideally under one roof. And we’ve secured that roof. Welcome to The Kuala Lumpur Journal Hotel, your official basecamp this October 15-19 in the heart of Bukit Bintang. Read on to learn more about the HiveFest Greatest Rates™️ early booking and our temp HQ in KL!

Heya my dear fellow Hiveans of the world!I can hardly believe it... HiveFest is turning 10! 😱 A full decade of meeting up IRL (and VR!), sharing stories, ideas, hugs, drinks (some), and countless moments that made this community what it is today.

Happy Hive5 Birthday everyone! 🎉🐝Today marks exactly 5 years since we forked away and started our own steemy adventures! Five years of Hive blockchain, and about a decade of our amazing community—can you believe it? What a wild ride it's been, from the early days of Steem to the community!

Good afternoon. It is here! Tomorrow Web3Amsterdam.com (ping for a free ticket!)! See you there?It's been a while since I've posted anything substantial about Hive development but I've been thinking a lot about this lately. In between building our house (which is taking forever and too long haha, but small win: just tested a toilet with automatic shower head TMI TMI TMI!) and maintaining my witness nodes, I've been thinking about an interesting tech mashup: connecting the Hive blockchain with the Fediverse

Hey goodday! Wishing you, dear reader of this blogpost - fellow Hivean, a great new year.Let's hope we all stick together and not end up in more useless games of thrones through tanks, drones, rockets and bombers. As our house is finally in the finishing phases (expecting rough delivery end of Q1 / beginning Q2) I'm getting more time for important stuff and start funnelling way more energy into Hive. Considering advising / helping out with projects, as I learned from housebuilding that a team gets so much more done than a lone wolf. Our house will be fed with a double redundancy internet connection with 5GB so I am seriously considering hosting a witness/seed cluster / backup in the basement, ofcourse partly powered by solar energy :)

Wow it's been a while since writing a post on Hive. And that has a reason, a once in a lifetime crazy cray cray experience....First off... Hello! My name is @roelandp, initiator and organiser of Hivefest, builder of Hive apps, designer of the Hive logo... but ever since running HiveFest Amsterdam last year, very busy BUILDING OUR OWN HOUSE.
