At the time when I join Leofinance I had no idea what is the word HIVE meaning for, I saw most of the trending blogger's post talks about Hive. I asked myself what is this? I think maybe these people here talk about the home of bees? Hahaha, am fun. But after reading a few posts I start to get an idea about what they talk about, ahaaa! They talk about something which is part of this modern technology, blockchain technology.
But, I become more interested and start to dig deep on posts to post of different bloggers and sometimes using google to gather more detail about HIVE. I know many people around here are like me as was before.
