About our guest, Good-Karma 🌟
Alright friends…on Tuesday, 24th February we are welcoming someone who quite literally helps keep Hive running — !
He's the founder of , a long-time infrastructure builder, a member of the consensus, i.e., a top 20 witness.
He’s built the apps you log into, one of the systems that sign your transactions securely, one of the search tools that help you find content, and the servers that literally produce blocks on the blockchain.
So if you’ve ever posted, voted, boosted, logged in, searched, or explored Hive — chances are you’ve touched something he built.
With we’ll be talking about building at scale, sustaining infrastructure in Web3, and what it really means to serve a decentralized community for the long haul.
Welcome to Hive Thrive Community Hour, Episode 45
Hive Thrive Community Hour is our weekly town hall for builders, critics, curators, and anyone still stubborn enough to care about where this chain is heading. Hive Thrive is where we slow things down, ask the questions, and let ideas breathe in real time. No scripts. No talking points handed out in advance. Just open conversation about Hive, its culture, its economics, its users and its future.
🎙️ What we’ll talk about:
• 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
• If 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.
Come hang out with us
Hive Thrive isn’t meant to be just another background podcast.
We treat it like a live town hall for the blockchain —
• a place where devs, witnesses, curators, creators, and critics can speak in the same room
• a space to explore the tools, tensions, and governance structures actually shaping Hive
• and a setting where honest conversation can replace years of silence, fear, or misunderstanding
We’re here to —
✅ Help people understand what’s actually happening behind the scenes
✅ Surface the real stories behind Hive’s institutions and projects
âś… Talk openly about drama, governance friction, and systemic issues
âś… Look for ways forward that strengthen the network instead of dividing it
