Hive Thrive: Our Hour for Hive Community
đź“… Tuesday, 28th April @ 6 PM UTC
📍 Live on Discord in the Voice General Channel
🎙 Hosts: and
➡️ Guests: and
of Innopay
Here we go again with another round of Hive Thrive, the weekly town hall where we bring Hive’s builders, critics, protectors, reformers, and the occasional trouble-maker into one room and see what happens.
Tomorrow we head into one of Hive’s most important frontiers: real-world payments. We’ll be joined by Sorin Cristescu and Denis from the Innopay team, a Luxembourg-based project working to connect restaurants, customers, and digital payments through practical tools powered by Hive technology in the background.
While much of crypto talks endlessly about the future, Innopay appears focused on the checkout counter, the table order, and the customer experience right now. That makes this a conversation worth having.
This week we’ll dive into:
- What exactly Innopay is, and how it works in the real world
- Why restaurants might choose it over traditional payment systems
- Using Hive and HBD without forcing users to “be crypto people”
- Merchant onboarding, customer habits, and what actually creates adoption
- Lessons learned building in Luxembourg
- Whether this model could expand internationally
- The difference between a cool demo and a scalable business
- How many times
says “this is what Hive needs”
Since this rocket launched, we’ve welcomed guests from all corners of Hive and explored everything from the DHF to front ends, games, curation, value plans, infrastructure, governance, and more. Join us and see how everyday Hiveans can better understand and engage with this multi-faceted ecosystem.
Bring your questions. If Hive is going to matter beyond Hive, conversations like this are part of the path.
