"Haliey "The Hawk Tuah Girl" Welch is making headlines for running what seems like almost certainly some form of cryptocurrency scam.

Of course, that's what happens every day in crypto, so if you lost any money in the fracas, you're either a complete imbecile, an easy mark, or down so bad that we have no practical advice to offer."

Hi there, Reddit! My name is u/shescrimsonclad and I’m a educator and entertainer who loves web3, crypto, and creating better social and financial tech. I’ve been using, teaching about, and helping to build the Hive blockchain for the past half a decade, and now we’re here to do an AMA and giveaway session to bring the users of the Hive ecosystem and Reddit together!

We're giving away 2025 $HIVE ($650 USD) during our ongoing AMA to three of the best comments and questions, as well as sending 3 $HIVE to EVERY other engaged commenter to get you started on your Hive ecosystem journey.

We’re excited not only to share what makes the Hive blockchain unique — but also some of the upcoming tech that’s creating real (like actually) cross-chain connections to the ENTIRE blockchain world, some of our games and services, and to show you some cool content sites that feel familiar to Reddit which are a great compliment to finding topics to share here.

I've got some basic info for you, as well as a ton of links so you can start exploring and make the best use of your free $HIVE, but I’m really looking forward to learning more about what you’re interested in, what you think, and answering your burning questions! Hive has an incredible origin story, a passionate community, and pushes for true decentralization every day. Let's jump in...

Why HIVE?

Connecting to what matters to you should be easy. It should be fast, and it shouldn’t cost you to use your assets or share your stories. You should be able to own your data, control your finances, and choose the places you want to interact. Your identity and history should be yours to build, and carry with you to wherever you want to use it. No company, founder, tech firm or investor should be in control of how you use the tech you love. This is what Hive is all about.

For the technically minded- Hive (hive.io) is a decentralized information-sharing blockchain built on the Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) protocol. Hive supports many different types of Web3 applications that contribute to the freedom and accessibility of data. The performance of our blockchain is designed to scale with widespread adoption of the currency and platforms in mind. By combining near-instant processing times and no fee, no gas transactions, Hive is positioned to become one of the leading blockchain technologies used by people worldwide. It powers some of the biggest and longest running dapps in the world, and creates a free to access ledger that anyone can build on or connect to while bringing everything that matters with them instantly via a human-readable wallet address that’s like a master username.

How to get started:

  • Create a Hive wallet via Hive Keychain (Metamask equivalent); Ecency (email confirmation) or use simple InLeo social logins to create an account (X or Google).
  • Remember, Hive wallets are human readable, not long alphanumeric strings of characters!

How to win free HIVE here on Reddit:

  1. Comment your HIVE wallet address below with a question for us. (e.g., u/yourusername).
  2. We’ll send 3 HIVE to every commenter 💸 (though we’ll be keeping an eye out for multi-account abuse, at our discretion)
  3. Grand Prize Alert: Three of the top comments or questions will win 675 $HIVE each ($215 USD)

Explore Hive:

Decentralized social platforms are where Hive got its start, but they only scratch the surface!

Web3 social has been alive and well for more than half a decade, unlike a lot of MLM-style attempts that have bought hype to sell out users. If you love Reddit, you’ll likely find most of Hive’s social platforms really familiar.

You’ll have a ton of fun exploring topics and making friends across sites that let you create, curate, and read content, explore communities, share posts from other sites, vote on and earn votes and badges on interactions, and potentially earn some crypto while doing it. All of these platforms are connected by Hive, which means your username and all your posts and friends go with you, wherever you log in. They also allow you to access and manage your crypto funds. Just a few great examples include:

  • Ecency : a feature rich, mobile optimized social site that includes communities, post boosting systems, multiple views for posting and reading content, as well as a cool short-form content feature called Waves
  • Inleo : an incredible short-form and long-form social app that has some similar vibes to X, focusing on live interactions with the Threads feature to provide interactive commenting feeds that you can use alongside other social sites to instantly distribute crypto, evergreen monetization, content gating and subscription options if you so choose
  • Travelfeed : beautiful, customizable travel, food or adventure focused content feeds to browse, with personal blog pages that can be instantly styled and deployed, can support your own URL if you choose, AI assistant, with blockchain commenting and monetization options baked right in and no special hosting necessary
  • PeakD : a vast, all-topics style forum and feed styled content site, with tons of communities (similar to subreddits) as well as badges, special post collections, beautiful layouts and portfolios, short-form Snaps, public and private user chats, and a lot of specialty features that make it a great place to start crossposting content you enjoy to and from Reddit
  • Liketu :  a beautiful picture focused, mobile-first app that focuses on visual experiences
  • Hive.blog : a traditional (feels a lot like old Reddit) front end that creates a no-frills forum styled content experience, with an encrypted, identity and key verified Rocket Chat instance attached   3Speak : a video distribution platform where you can post, view, vote for, and even help distributed host content if you choose that is part of the larger SPK Network of services

Blockchain gaming and Hive are a match made in heaven. You can play with the friends you’ve made on social apps, create and vote for content cross platform about the games, trade and build assets freely, or even use some assets in cross-play dapps. Hive allows gamer identities (wallets) to be used to log into service and social sites and vice versa, and allows your funds and assets to follow you wherever you want to use them, automagically and with no fees.

How you make Hive yours is up to you; its services power and connects parts of the world that you may not even realize! Ranging from the cool custom maps, reviews, and curated shop stores of Waivio, the lightning fast Podping podcast notification service being used by more than two thirds of the worlds podcast announcement systems, custom pin-drop adventure and location marking with World Mappin, to the instant, no-fee Bitcoin Lightning settlement rails of V4V.app, there's a ton to explore and a lot of ways to earn and spend $HIVE and $HBD.

Watch for in Q1 2025:

Hive's VSC layer 2 (Virtual Smart Chain) — a neutral cross-chain protocol which enables cross chain interoperability will connect hundreds of different blockchains and wallets to seamlessly interact with each other utilizing our

  • Feeless transactions
  • Universal connectivity
  • Human readable addresses

To pay across multiple wallet types seamlessly, use BTC in smart contracts and EVM wallets, send ETH to Solana in 3 seconds or less… it’s kind of a big deal.

Hive was created to be scalable, fast, simple to build on and highly resilient. The Hive protocol is an open-source development project spearheaded by a diverse group of blockchain experts who are driven by their commitment to decentralization. VSC has leveraged this inherent flexibility to **build the infras...

I've been invested into crypto since Apr 2021 I bought high and bought 2 weeks later right after a big correction and been Dcaing into the Number 2 crypto ever since. 90% of my bag is number 2 and the whole day at my preconceived price targets I've been taking profits.

I remember seeing posts on this sub during the last 2 bull runs, when I was still just a lurker, about taking profits so I feel it's my duty to remind those that may have unrealised gains to take some profits.

Another correction will come and with our profits we can fill our bags again. Idk about you but I'm in it for the money, always have been. The tech is cool and I do believe crypto or at the very least block chain tech will become apart of our lives in ways we don't yet know and many ways we do know.

Ultimately this is prime time to be realising some of those gains we've all been seeing.

As a side note what's a coin you've been hodling that isn't in the green yet but you still have hope?

For me it's LoopRing, LRC. I've got a small bag that I got at nearly $1 per LRC and I'm not in the green yet with this coin. There was so much hype around it and I aped in. I've got diamond hands. I've never EVER sold lower than what I bought at and I'll sooner see a bag head to zero before selling at a loss just in case it decides to clime 3million% right after I sell. I'm still holding my og bag of PoW Eth just incase.
