Hey, everyone! Part of Hive’s decentralization relies on its witnesses. For the system to work as intended, everyone with a stake should get involved and vote for active witnesses who are contributing to the blockchain.
In this clip:
- Engage in Hive Governance
- Check your witness votes and support active contributors
- Withdraw support from inactive witnesses
It’s easy to forget to check if the witnesses you’ve voted for are still active. Doing this a few times a year is a good practice. Getting involved supports the decentralization of the platform.
There’s not much rotation among the top witnesses. With the way governance works on Hive, it’s hard for someone to lose their position at the top once they’re there. That’s why it’s crucial to remove support from inactive witnesses and back those who are currently contributing.
And while you’re at it, consider supporting the leofinance witness!
