Many moons ago, in a life very different than the one I am living now, when asked by someone to do something for them I would ask the question, "What have you do for me lately?"
It was always interesting to watch someone's facial expressions after asking this question.
Good friends would laugh because they knew I was joking. Some people would turn red in their faces because they knew they were always asking for help but never there when I might have needed help.
Some people would just ignore what I said and repeat what they wanted me to do. A sure sign that what they were asking for was very important to them.
I have always been a huge believer in thanking someone for helping me or helping others if I see it. "Thank you's" cost nothing but one breath. It also helps when you are sincere while saying it.
When Ned Scott sold the blockchain many people came together to put in place plans should anything go wrong after the sale.
Many people stuck out their necks and wallets to make sure if anything went wrong people like me would still have a Blockchain to call home. A place where I could write anything I wanted to. A place where I could make long rambling videos because that is all part of who I am.
Being objective for a moment. I will say that I am very sure in the secret, secret, slack of decision making my name never came up as to why it was best to have a backup plan for our blockchain. #SnookdidNOTmakethemdoit. 😹
The secret group went on to make the transition on all of us as easy as they could. I was not looking forward to staring at a blank homepage and trying to fill it up again with stories of my life. Thanks to the secret group I did not have to. All my blog posts followed me when the time was right.
I had worked very hard on getting my token power to 5,000. I was not looking forward to starting over at zero again. Once again the secret group took care of that for us too.
There were a few guidelines followed to be taken off the list of who received the airdrop. There was also a way to make a case for yourself as to why you should get an airdrop of tokens for those that needed it.
The secret group made the move to @Hiveio seamless for normal users.
When a project goes so smoothly it means one thing. People busted their BUMS off in a very short time to make sure everything worked correctly. I know people that were going on zero sleep while this was all going on behind the scenes. With brainpower being stretched to limits many of us could never sustain they worked until it was done in record time.
While I am one tiny user on the Hive Blockchain, I offer one HUGE
Thank You!!!
to ALL the people that worked and are still working on Hive Blockchain to make it the best Blockchain there ever will be.
Help someone smile today. It can not hurt you.
