๐Ÿš€ Hive Blockchain Contribution Update โ€“ Running Union Indexer Node ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธโšก

@sagarkothari88 ยท 2025-09-25 04:30 ยท HiveDevs

Hello Hive Fam ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Hope you all are doing amazing, powered up, and stacking Hive like true blockchain warriors ๐Ÿฆธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿฆธโ€โ™€๏ธ!
This time, instead of pure technical tinkering, I bring you a resource-driven update. Yesโ€ฆ more servers, more bandwidth, more headaches ๐Ÿ˜…, but ALL for Hive! ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ’›


๐Ÿ”Œ Allocating Resources for Hive

As many of you know, I am a Hive Witness, and that means responsibilities, uptime nightmares โฐ, and of course, running shiny nodes for the Hive blockchain ๐Ÿš€.

Hereโ€™s what Iโ€™m running right now and whatโ€™s cooking in the future kitchen ๐Ÿณ:

โœ… Running Nodes

  • ๐ŸŸข Hive Witness Node
  • ๐ŸŸข Hive API/RPC Node โ†’ https://hive-api.sagarkothari88.one
  • ๐ŸŸข VSC (Witness) Node
  • ๐ŸŸข Union Indexer Node
  • ๐ŸŸข 3Speak Video Encoder Nodes

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Planned Nodes

  • ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป Hive Engine Node
  • ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป Hive Engine RPC Node
  • ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป DLUX Node
  • ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป DUAT Node
  • ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป SPKCC Node
  • ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป Spk Storage Nodes

๐Ÿ’ก If you think I missed an important node that could boost Hive, drop your suggestions in the comments below โฌ‡๏ธ and Iโ€™ll see what I can do. ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿš€


๐Ÿ— Hive Witness Node

Hive Witness Node

Running as a Hive Witness for a long time nowโ€”with just 48 blocks missed ๐Ÿค“. Not bad, right?
โญ If youโ€™ve got a spare Witness Vote, smash that button and show some love โค๏ธ.


๐ŸŒ Hive API Node

Hive API Node

Running Hive API Node right from my home ๐Ÿก (yes, with all the insane electricity and internet bills ๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿคฃ).
Available at: https://hive-api.sagarkothari88.one.
Itโ€™s listed on peakd.com, and only a few Hive warriors run these nodesโ€”Iโ€™m proud to be one of them ๐Ÿ™Œ.


๐Ÿ”— VSC (Witness) Node

VSC Witness Node

The future is cross-chain! โšก
Iโ€™m also running a VSC Node (Virtual Smart Chain). Think interoperability on steroids โœจ powered by Hive with ZK proofs and secure wrap protocols. Pretty cool, right?


๐ŸŽฅ 3Speak Video Encoder Nodes

3Speak Video Encoder Nodes

Guess whoโ€™s powering your videos? Yup, me ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ช
Iโ€™m running the most number of encoder nodes for 3Speak. It eats up insane internet bandwidth ๐ŸŒ, but hey, no pain no gain for Hive ๐ŸŽ‰.

Even with ISP headaches (hello internet drops ๐Ÿ‘Ž), I keep them running!
Fun fact: Recently, @eddiespino also joined this mission of running encoders. Teamwork makes Hive work ๐Ÿ’ฏ.


๐Ÿ”Ž Union Indexer Node

Union Indexer Node

My latest addition = Union Indexer Node ๐ŸŽ‰
Link: https://union-indexer.sagarkothari88.one/api/v2/graphql

In @vaultecโ€™s words:

Union Indexer handles all the cool advanced stuff Hive APIs donโ€™tโ€”tag filtering, text search, comment count magic, and better data parsing. Without it, say goodbye ๐Ÿ‘‹ to text search (and hello to frustration ๐Ÿฅฒ).

So far, only @threespeak had been running it. And nowโ€ฆ tadaaa ๐ŸŽฉโœจโ€”Iโ€™m part of the Union Indexer Gang too! ๐Ÿ

Find details here: github.com/spknetwork/union-indexer-node


๐Ÿ”ฎ Whatโ€™s Next?

Coming soon to a server near you ๐Ÿคฉ:
- ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป Hive Engine Node
- ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป Hive Engine RPC Node
- ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป DLUX Node
- ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป DUAT Node
- ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป SPKCC Node
- ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป Spk Storage Nodes

Stay tuned! Iโ€™ll keep spinning up nodes like popcorn ๐Ÿฟ until Hive becomes unstoppable ๐Ÿš€.
