# πŸš€ Cross-Posting to Hive, Blurt, and Steemit – Automatically with PEK Support!

@peakecoin Β· 2025-08-04 02:29 Β· LeoFinance

We’ve officially created a unified cross-poster that lets us publish a single post to Hive, Blurt, and Steemitβ€”all at once, using one script.

But that’s not all. Every time we post, it automatically buys a small amount of PEK token on Hive Engine to support the PeakeCoin ecosystem.

🧩 What This Does

  • βœ… Posts the same content to Hive, Blurt, and Steemit
  • βœ… Uses hive-nectar and nectarengine for seamless Hive and Blurt interaction
  • βœ… Handles Steemit via direct API
  • βœ… Automatically buys 0.0000001 PEK tokens every time we post
  • βœ… Logs all results locally and shows URLs of published posts
  • βœ… Shows Voting Power and Resource Credits for each platform
  • βœ… Adds self-upvotes and supports beneficiary splits if needed

πŸ” How It Works

poster = CrossPlatformPoster()
poster.setup_platforms(credentials)
poster.create_post(title, body, tags)

This little object does a LOT: - Checks and configures connections to Hive, Blurt, and Steem - Buys PEK tokens using Hive Engine API - Builds the post and pushes it to each platform - Returns the result per platform - Optionally includes beneficiaries and metadata


πŸ’Έ PEK Token Integration

  • Auto-purchase amount: 0.0000001 PEK
  • Market data fetched from Hive Engine
  • Purchase executed at slightly above the lowest ask to ensure fill
  • Supports the PeakeCoin ecosystem every time content is posted

βš™οΈ Technical Highlights

  • Built with:
  • hive-nectar
  • nectarengine
  • Hive Engine market API
  • Compatible with requests, beem, hiveengine, and fallback methods
  • All posts are created with markdown and optional beneficiaries
  • Custom permlink generation avoids collisions

🧠 Sample Output

Creating cross-platform post...
HIVE: βœ… Success
BLURT: βœ… Success
STEEM: βœ… Success

Want to test it? Run it on a Raspberry Pi or server with:

python3 cross_poster.py

Make sure your .json or .env config is set with your Hive, Blurt, and Steemit usernames and posting keys.
