Can you believe it's only been a year since we forked?
Yes, today we celebrate the fork day or the birth day of Hive, however you want to call it. Wow, time passes quickly!
In the end, the character that shall not be named did us all a favor and released us from an entity that constantly held us back for years.
Now we are one split and one hard fork away and with another hard fork being prepared as we speak. Lots of core changes to the blockchain, many hivemind developments, most of them having little to no impact to the regular user, but very important to the stability, scalability and future development of Hive.
It was not all great the past year, because the market price of Hive seemed to fail to acknowledge the developments that took place, the thriving communities and the overall bull market. But that changed lately, with Hive price starting to soar.
At the same time, Hive's 2nd layer tribes and projects as well as games did a great job entertaining, engaging and exciting our communities. All while bringing more real value to our pockets.
None of us knows everything that goes on in the Hive ecosystem. This situation was prognosticated even before Hive's birth, when communities came to life, maybe even earlier, when tribes first joined the ecosystem.
Hive is one! But we are Hive. Every tribe, project and dapp is Hive. And history already shows Hive is not an asset to possess, it is alive.
Happy Birthday! Happy Fork Day!
