I cannot do my usual price chart today, but here are some prices. I had someone ask if I would be doing #FollowFriday and I appreciate the support I get. $HIVE is not ending the year where we might hope, but it is not as low as some feared.
Despite this there is plenty going on with this blockchain. People are still building things on it. @meno has been busy with the @snapie app that is really popular. I think that short form content is important and we need to decide what has value. We can use it to share news as well as our personal updates. Communities can form around it.
Private messaging is important too as we need options away from corporate platforms. You can do it in @peakd and @ecency.
Hive is built to encourage developers as there is minimal cost in using it and transactions are quick.
I have talked with many people this year and met a few. I always say the in-person meetups have better bandwidth.
I will just drop a few names of people I appreciate. You can look at previous posts for more. I would love to see more people doing the same.
@alessandrawhite has been representing Hive as well as running Creative Work Hour every day.
@bozz is a really consistent poster on various topics including music, finance and travel.
@thetroublenotes are spreading musical joy around the world on their tours.
@mcsamm continues to work on providing more boreholes in Ghana.
@louis88, @brianoflondon and @themarkymark are building cool tools on Hive.
@adetorrent makes quality videos reviewing gadgets. @livinguktaiwan has travelled to Antarctica. I met them both in London too.
@sidekickmatt draws several different comics that appear on Hive.
There are many more people who make Hive fun. Please share some of your favourites.
Hive five and I wish you all happy new year.
Yay! thanks for including me :). Hope your Christmas went well. Enjoying boxing day with the fam. Much food still to eat haha
More vegan food, @adetorrent? 😂
@bitterirony: Is this a Mildred restaurant, like that one we went to together two years ago?
@steevc: Yes, it’s the same vegan restaurant, just at Canary Wharf.
@adetorrent: Wait! This is a vegan restaurant?
😂 😂 😂
That was SO much so fun!
I'm actually on commission with Mildred's so that's why I take you there 😁 It was fun spending time with all of you.
People have no idea how funny you are!!
We've had plenty to eat. Need to get out and burn some calories. Been watching a lot of TV.
Have a good one.

Happy new year to you!
Thanks for the shout out! I agree, there some amazing things being built here and we still have a lot of benefits over many of the other chains out there. There is no reason we shouldn't be doing better.
We have something special here that more should know about. Of course it's imperfect, but more users would fix various things. We need content, activity and curation.
Yes to all of that!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
And the same to you. !BEER

Hi Steeve :) if you don't know @thonykx01 check him out, great rock-fusion guitar improvisation
I'll check him out. Thanks.
I always respect Meno's work but astonishingly I haven't tried the snapie app yet as it is for photos/short form but I think I will give it a whirl
He's been a busy little boy this year and the app is nice. I find uses for short posts.
Yeah, I am looking at it right now. It's quite swish
I've never done mobile development, so it's all witchcraft to me. Maybe some day I'll find time to learn about it.
I am sure you will, you are quite the whizz in these respects!
You have been manual curated and upvoted by @ecency
Merry Christmas Steevc
@steevc, is this your way of not doing your #followfriday post? 😂 A slimmed down version perhaps (and the dogs don’t get mentioned this week) but you surprised us with another edition.
Thank you!
I do appreciate your mentioning @creativeworkhour. For the fifth consecutive year, we hosted the crew on Christmas Day.
The creative work included cooking, wrapping presents, and playing with a cat chasing Christmas ribbons.
I'm not at the PC, so I had to keep things simple and I don't want to dwell on negativity. This year has gone quickly, but a lot happened. All the best for 2026.
