Here's a big fat question:
What’s the last Hive rabbit hole you fell into? 🕳️ 🐇
Oh, you fell into more than one hole, did ya?
That's alright. There's a bunch of us.
So we made a show to entertain ourselves with Hive rabbit holes!!
Let's get ready for tomorrow's show!🍿
About our guest
🌟
For Episode 47, Hive Thrive Community Hour is welcoming our guest, . You may also know him as Damir, who is someone many Hive users know as a thinker, experimenter, and occasional stirrer of big ideas about where the Hive ecosystem could go next.
Over his eight years on the chain, he’s been involved in projects sitting at the crossroads of technology, culture, and cross-chain DeFi. He’s closely associated with the project formerly known as , now evolving into
, which explores how Hive accounts and identity might connect with smart contracts and cross-chain systems.
But his interests don’t stop at infrastructure. He was executive producer of the Freechain documentary, which tells the story of a truly decentralized community. As a designer, he’s currently developing the Hive Watch — a luxury timepiece inspired by the chain itself.
He also served as lead organizer of -9 in Split, Croatia, welcoming the global Hive community to his home country.
So with , we’ll be exploring his projects, discussing his take on where Hive's headed, and pondering questions about the chain that may make you put down your snack and listen a bit closer. We hope to see you there!
Welcome to Hive Thrive Community Hour — Episode 47
Hive Thrive Community Hour is our weekly town hall for builders, critics, curators — and anyone stubborn enough to still care about this strange and resilient blockchain of ours.
Each week we slow things down, ask real questions, and let ideas flow in real time.
There are no scripts. No talking points handed out in advance.
Just open conversation about Hive — its culture, its economics, its people, and the future we’re all quietly shaping together.
We Explore 🤔
• Why Hive keeps attracting people who claim not to care…but clearly do
• What actually creates value here versus what we pretend creates value
• The psychology of the downvote button
• Whether Hive is antifragile…or just stubborn
• And possibly why everyone thinks they could run the DHF better
There may be hard truths.
There may be laughs.
There may be mild discomfort.
Hive Thrive Ain't Just Another Discord Show 😄
We treat it more like a live town hall for the blockchain — a place where developers, witnesses, curators, creators, and critics can share the same room and talk about the systems shaping Hive.
If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking about Hive — why it works, why it doesn’t, or why it somehow keeps pulling people back in — you’ll probably feel at home with the likes of us.
What we’re trying to do
✅ Help people understand what’s actually happening behind the scenes
✅ Reveal the real stories behind Hive’s institutions and projects
✅ Talk openly about governance friction and systemic issues
✅ Look for ways forward that strengthen the network instead of dividing it
Hive is a wonderful and remarkable experiment🔬 — and like any experiment, it works best when people are willing to talk honestly about it.
