What is Hive?
Hive is a fast, scalable, and powerful blockchain based social-media platform. It powers the groundbreaking Play-To-Earn game, Splinterlands.
Hive is supported by a passionate and talented team of contributors with a growing and thriving ecosystem of Web 3.0 applications.
You can find more about the ecosystem here:
Hive uses the $HIVE cryptocurrency which has real monetary value.
Members are able to earn $HIVE by publishing content to the blockchain.
- $HIVE Price on CoinGecko
- $HIVE can be purchased on BlockTrades.
Several front-end applications interact with Hive and share an account management system. Your keys will allow access to them all. There’s no need to sign up for individual applications or games.
I listed the following front-end’s in order of user-friendliness.
Ecency is the perfect entryway for new Hive members. The application is easy to navigate and has a pleasant feel. Another feature that makes Ecency unique is the use of its own token called Ecency points.
When members use Ecency they earn points. They can also buy points with Hive, or earn by delegating Hive Power (HP) to the application.
Spend Ecency points to boost rewards for your or another’s post and promote your content.
