I suppose I shouldn't be surprised by the number of Hive related projects that fall by the wayside after a little time has passed.
I have long been a user of the BeeSwap application here on Hive because I find that it was always a quicker and easier interface to use to access things on Hive-Engine than either Tribaldex or Hive-Engine proper.
So, a couple of days ago instead of getting the usual BeeSwap interface I found myself looking at the parking placeholder of a domain name service (see image above).
I gave it a couple of days before deciding to write about it because — after all — sometimes people forget to pay their domain subscription, or the credit card on file has expired and needs to be updated and you don't necessarily get to it on time.
But since I'm still getting the domain squatter's placeholder page I guess we have to assume at this point that something is left-of-center at BeeSwap.
I have checked around for update posts but they don't seem to be any. Not that that's surprising, either, since most Hive project holders seem very reluctant to communicate anything going on with their projects.
I do sincerely hope this doesn't mean the end of what was actually quite a good service for the Hive ecosystem. I like to use BeeSwap because it enabled me to access not only Hive-Engine tokens but also my liquidity pool investments from a single location. And, as I said before, the interface moved a lot faster than the alternatives.
I guess all we can do at this point is just sit back and wait and see if there's some kind of announcement or the service comes back up. I'm not going to hold my breath on that one, however!
What does cause me pause for thought is that BeeSwap "lived" on the dCity domain, making me wonder whether the dCity game is also history, at this point.
Feel free to leave a comment — this IS "social" media, after all!
