HiveFest 2024: Last-Minute Changes, Timeschedule Now Available, and Mobile App Launch!

With just two days to go until HiveFest 2024, exciting is gearing up. Literally gears as we see amongst others the #roadtohivefest posts from knowhow92, arcange, the family olha.maslievich all on the road to Split.

There are some last-minute changes to the program to share with you. Unfortunately, Nikita from Decentr won't be able to join us due to visa issues. He will surely be missed!

However, we are excited to announce two fantastic last-minute additions to the speaker lineup: knowhow92 from SkateHive and Seckorama from Ecency. Here's a sneak peek into their presentations:

SkateHive: Reclaiming Skateboarding Culture through Web3
Knowhow92 will introduce SkateHive, a vibrant skateboarding community built on the Hive blockchain. SkateHive aims to onboard skaters into the world of Web3, reclaiming skateboarding culture from mainstream social media monopolies. The talk will dive into how SkateHive's open-source app allows skateboarders to own and monetize their content while fostering an engaging, supportive environment. Learn about their push for financial independence and how decentralized technology empowers skaters worldwide.

Ecency: Enhancing Hive Engagement with Innovative Features
Seckorama from Ecency will present on how this fast and lightweight front-end for Hive, available on both web and mobile platforms, is enhancing user engagement. Ecency rewards its users with Points, which can be used to boost posts, give tips, and much more. In this talk, you'll hear about recent improvements such as Decks for organizing content, 3Speak video integration, and new chat and community features. Seckorama will also offer insights into upcoming updates aimed at scaling the platform and enhancing customization and stability.
