The Hive Way: Passion, Action, and a Little Bit of Chaos
In case you missed it—last week something pretty cool happened in our little corner of the decentralized universe. Hive Dapps officially made their debut on The Dapp List!
Now, if you're sitting there scratching your head thinking, “What in the world is The Dapp List?”—don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Think of it as a kind of digital showroom, a curated directory where the coolest, most promising decentralized apps (dApps) get their time in the spotlight. It’s like the red carpet of #Web3, and Hive just strutted right down it. You can check out their platform HERE, or dive into our very own intro piece HERE if you’re the reading type.
Now, let’s be real for a second. Getting listed on The Dapp List isn’t going to instantly send #Hive to the moon, nor is it going to make headlines on CNN. BUT—and it’s a big but—what is truly inspiring is how it happened.
You see, this wasn’t some top-down corporate maneuver orchestrated by a team in suits. Nope. It was actually the work of two everyday Hive enthusiasts @minigunner and @artakush. Just two random dudes, not paid, not prompted, not prodded—just passionate. They rolled up their sleeves, took a look at the playing field, and said, “Hey, let’s do something awesome for Hive.” And they did.
This is the real power of Hive. It’s not just a #blockchain, it’s a movement fueled by individuals who believe in the mission and want to see the ecosystem thrive. These two guys didn’t wait for permission. They didn’t wait for someone else to take the lead. They just did the thing—and now Hive #Dapps are out there getting noticed by an even wider audience.
Which brings us to you.
Yes, YOU reading this right now. You’ve got just as much power to make an impact. You don’t need to be a #developer, a #whale, or a #marketing genius. You just need the willingness to step outside your comfort zone and wave the Hive flag in your own unique way. Write a blog. Make a video. Share a tweet. Talk to your friends. Build something. Do anything.
So here’s our challenge to you:
Get out there. Be bold. Be loud. Be weird if you have to. But most importantly, be a part of this movement. Let’s show the world what Hive is really made of—one passionate individual at a time.
More Than a Game: How Splinterlands and Hive United for a Cause
When it comes to getting Hive Dapps noticed on The Dapp List, there’s one key requirement: a minimum of 50 upvotes. And that, friends, is where the magic of the Hive #community comes in.
Let’s be honest—without you, none of this would even be possible. You, the builders, the players, the creators, the curators, the ones who show up day after day… You are the foundation of this #ecosystem. You’re not just participating—you’re literally shaping Hive’s future.
Our very first mission? Shine a spotlight on none other than @Splinterlands—and we had some very solid reasons for that pick.
Not only is #Splinterlands one of the oldest and most battle-tested dapps on Hive, but they’ve also been riding a growing wave of hype thanks to the build-up around their upcoming Conclave Arcana announcement. So we thought—why not help make that wave even bigger?
But that’s not all. Splinterlands also boasts one of the most passionate, loyal, and engaged communities in the Hive ecosystem. We knew that if any dapp could rally support and hit that 50-vote milestone, it was going to be them. And wow, did they deliver.
It was honestly something special to witness: #Splinterlands and #Hive coming together, showing what this ecosystem is capable of when we act as one. Community members didn’t just show up—they showed out.
And here’s the cherry on top thanks to some incredible collaboration behind the scenes with @Acidio, Team @OCD, @Starkerz, Team @Threespeak, @Blocktrades, and @Aggroed, we were able to reward every voter through @Commentrewarder!
Not familiar with how Commentrewarder works? No worries—you can check out a full breakdown HERE and see how this cool little system helps incentivize engagement across the Hive ecosystem.
From 50 to Front Page: Hive and Splinterlands Take the Spotlight
Originally, the goal was simple: hit 50 upvotes for @Splinterlands on The Dapp List so it could officially qualify as a listed project.
But wow… the Hive community didn’t just show up. You blew the doors off.
As of now, we’ve passed **140 **votes—and the numbers are still climbing by the day! That’s nearly triple our target, and it’s all thanks to your unstoppable support.
What started as a grassroots push turned into a full-on community-powered rocket launch. And now, our hope is that this momentum doesn’t just stay within the #Hive and #Splinterlands ecosystems, but catches the eyes of users from all across the Web3 world. If even a handful of non-Hive folks stumble upon our dapps, get curious, and eventually join our community, then we’ve already made a massive win for #decentralization.
Let’s break down what this means:
✅ Hive is officially listed on The Dapp List
✅ Splinterlands is now a fully listed project
✅ We’re climbing the rankings—fast
✅ Discovery just got WAY easier
And it gets better...
Thanks to your overwhelming support, Splinterlands is now featured on the front page of The Dapp List. Not only that—it was awarded the "Project of the Week" badge, a shiny mark of distinction that helps draw even more attention to what we’re building.
Let that sink in. A Hive-based project is sitting front and center in one of the biggest curated dapp directories out there—and it’s all because of the power of our collective voice.
You didn’t just vote. You elevated an entire #ecosystem.
So let’s keep this energy going. The more we support our own dapps—by voting, sharing, participating—the more visible Hive becomes to the rest of the world. Let’s make sure the spotlight stays right where it belongs: on the innovation, creativity, and unstoppable spirit of the Hive community.
Hive Dapp Fridays: A Weekly Movement to Boost Our Ecosystem
The Hive ecosystem is bursting with brilliant dapps—projects that deserve the spotlight, recognition, and support from both our community and the broader #Web3 space. So we thought, why not make it a regular thing?
Introducing Hive Dapp Fridays—a weekly event where we come together as a community to focus our voting power on one specific dapp and help it rise to the top on The Dapp List.
Every week, we rally behind a new dapp, vote it up, and help it gain visibility, credibility, and potential new users from outside the Hive bubble. And the best part? Every single vote you cast will be rewarded. That’s right—supporting your favorite Hive projects just got even sweeter.
Here’s how the schedule is shaping up so far:
- April 11 - April 17: We’ll be showing our love to the essential Hive wallet, @keychain.
- April 18 - April 24: Next up is the all-in-one social frontend, @ecency, a project known for making Hive fun and accessible.
- April 25 - May 1: Time to boost the visibility of @thedistriator, a unique and innovative app in the Hive space.
- May 2 - May 8: We’re wrapping up with the the very cool frontend, the reliable and feature-packed @PeakD.
Each Friday kicks off a full week of voting, so you’ll have plenty of time to jump in, vote, and support Hive #Ecosystem.
And don’t worry—this is just the beginning. We’ve got a ton of incredible Hive dapps lined up and will continue rolling out more names as the movement grows. If you’re a dapp creator or have one you think deserves some attention, stay tuned—we’ve got plans for that too.
So set a reminder, mark your calendars, and get ready to vote, support, and get rewarded every week. Let’s show the world just how strong and united the Hive community really is.
One dapp at a time, one vote at a time—we rise together.
