Each an every one of us that participate or interact with the HIVE Blockchain are actually helping to build it and maintain it, just as bees do everyday in the real World. The bees must do this everyday until the hive or colony ceases to exist, and so too, we must continually help to maintain the HIVE BLOCKCHAIN through our participation which can be anything from running witnesses nodes, coding, creating Dapps, upvoting, staking (Powering Up), blogging etc etc. This blockchain lesson of Community was most prominently displayed with the recent steem/HIVE Blockchain Hard-Fork demonstrating that the technology is nothing without a community that believes in it and more importantly uses it.
