After yesterdays chaotic meetup at SM Ecoland in Davao City, received news that
would be donating HIVE to the official
(formerly
) account.
This news was unexpected and nothing in any of the prior discussions that had with
implied that
would donate to #HivePhilippines so this was an unexpected gift to the
project, the Hive community here in the Philippines and the Filipino OFWs and immigrants living abroad.
Chris still wasn't sure how much the amount would be but later in the day after getting a little sleep, messaged him asking if
had purchased a bunch of Steem. It turns out that Nathan donated over 8,000 HIVE to
and entrusted Chris to use it for the
project however he sees fit.
In Nathan's words:
its a donation so you can use it for anything you need for HivePhilippines.com.
That means that our #HivePhilippines account is now a Dolphin!
This definitely builds confidence in the #HivePhilippines community and it shows that people ( in this case) are seeing value in the in-person meetups we are holding in Davao City, Philippines
Thank you for giving us the gift of HIVE, we will continue just as we have since the beginning of our meetups 😊
If anyone lives in Davao City, Philippines, consider contacting Chris Rice
