Just a very short and quick update, because people do not even appreciate the research, work and time I put into my posts, notifications, hints anyway. Which is probably also one of the reasons for the downfall and failure of our beloved Hive project.
We had some "discussions" - mainly people just arguing against me and pushing me into bad optics because they don't like what I say - about Hive. You can see it for example here:
Hive dying and soon stalling?
But also in quite a few other posts. And now I'm really looking forward for these people to act as they've claimed to do. But I still think it will just be empty blabbering.
Because no human acts against their own interest, which is mainly formed by INCENTIVES. And also, even if you do 'altruistically' (as they call it), you still cannot act against the Hive mechanism and just magically be in the top witness, when starting to run a new node.
So Hive's own mechanism will also help to its downfall.
While I still have to say it again now, I think: I am not saying that Hive will fail an stall today or tomorrow. But I am for open discussion and wondering how long it will continue to survive. More to that in the above linked post, and especially in its comments where I again tried to explain the post in even better words to stop misunderstanding.
And now the main topic:
I was trying to check Hive (yea, I still do it from time to time) from my phone. And I have just noticed that most nodes are down:
Only 4 are still fully online. Very reliable ones like anyx.io hive-api.arcange.eu hive-api.3speak.tv are completely offline.
Just as the oldest and 'official' one: api.hive.blog is completely offline.
Please spin up your nodes now, altruistically arguing fellow Hivers, and do it really now.
Because you still need some time for marketing and making stakeholders vote for your node (/witness).
As always, sad to watch people ignore valid critics. Ignorance is bliss, until we end up in chaos.
And then this chaos is being called 'anarchy' which makes you stuck into the eternal reincarnation cycle of sorrow forever. Good luck.
Thank for the attention.
