I want to wish a Happy 3rd birthday to Hive. I started playing Splinterlands around December 2021 so technically I was in the Hive ecosystem around this time. I only started blogging around November 2022; I started with Splinterlands challenge posts and eventually branched out to other communities. I have to say I do love the Hive ecosystem. I've seen the life changing posts and impact it has made to peoples lives and I totally support this.
I used to blog before on my own personal blog gr8u.blogspot.com but I was never able to monetize that ever. I find it awesome that I can write about almost any content I like such as games, food, answering prompts or sharing my daily life and I can actually make a decent side income from it. The best of all is I do enjoy writing and it helps me keep my writing and English skills up to par.
I've actually done my part in trying to introduce Hive to new people such as @adoraonhive and @sigalaluf. It's a bit rough in the beginning and I've been supporting them and encouraging them to keep posting. Hopefully, they also can see the greatness in this ecosystem and continue writing and engaging with other writers.
Anyways I'm taking part in the #HivePowerBday initative and I highly encourage you to participate as well if you haven't already. You can check out how to participate in the blog post here. The screenshots below show that I have done my part in powering up 10 hive power for the initiative and you can also see that I've been powering up through my blog earnings as well.
Happy Birthday To Hive and I hope we can hit a million active users soon! Let's go!
