Hello Hive ❤️

Hey everyone, it's @Artakush and @minigunner back with the CBRS Podcast episode 45! We're feeling way more awake this time around with no sleepy vibes like last episode.

Kicking Off with Hive-Echo Winners

We kicked things off as usual with the @Hive-Echo, this time for week 32. We also had a new out-of-the-box CTA helping @hivefest reach more people and promote #CryptoCulture event that is also a part of Hivefest. But before diving deep, we spun the wheel for our winners, sponsored by @ThreeSpeak. We love seeing familiar names and new ones popping up. It's awesome how the community keeps growing.

The lucky winners this time? @Eliza01, @nsigo1, @Amazing23, @mdakash62 and @nkemakonam89! Each snagged 10 Hive. Congrats, folks! It's super cool that most were first-timers who got lucky on their single entry, even with others posting multiple times. Hive-Echo is such an easy way to promote Hive on Web2. It's low-hanging fruit for everyone. We should also use those videos from the @HiveSummitAachen to make shorts and spread the word!

Highlights from the Aachen Hive Summit

Speaking of the Aachen Summit, we watched all the videos. Seven hours of gold! There are tons of short-worthy clips, but it takes manual work to edit them right. If you're up for it, dive in and create some. We heard stories like the one from Andre Liesenfeld about Solana, Ape NFTs, and breaking Snoop Dogg's gin record with a massive event that drew 5,000 people. The key takeaway? Build real-world use cases with Hive tech. We need to stop bubbling in our own world and reach out to others.

Then there was this talk from @michaelreischer on blending blockchain with an American football team called the Rebels. Imagine tokens that give fans real influence, like voting on team swag or events, without focusing on dollar value. It's about community power. Earn tokens by proving support, like sharing on X or showing game tickets. We brainstormed ideas from our old @makdao project: proof-of-share, fan-voted projects, and more. Sure, clubs want sponsors and money, but this could add fun layers like signed #NFTs or exclusive perks. Playing devil's advocate, it might be tricky for pros, but Hive's perfect for this kind of fan engagement.

We also chatted about our first X Spaces with Boy Maas from Jamzing and Polana. They're crushing it with second place in transaction speeds at 11.97 milliseconds. Congrats! It's inspiring to see projects we talk to level up.

Epic Luck and Community Shoutouts

On a personal note, one of us had an epic morning: opened @Splinterlands packs with 52K glint and pulled multiple gold foil epics worth over $200! Even landing in Gold II felt like a win. The chase is real. Big players like @jeffopenscards are pulling millions in glint. Props to the devs; it's addictive.

We've started posting on #CoinMarketCap. Our updates are getting thousands of views. It's a great spot to shine Hive to crypto folks. Maybe this could be also interesting for the #Posh team. We already passed this info to @acidyo and @hivetrending, so fingers crossed it is nothing too crazy difficult to do and not too expensive to achieve.

For a laugh, we wached this hilarious Instagram clip of a guy with Tourette's syndrome named Omulcutourette. His tics had us cracking up, and he laughs at it too. Check the link HERE. We're not mocking, it's just pure joy.

Upcoming Events and Final Thoughts

• #CryptoLatinFest wrapped up smoothly, with CheckInwith.xyz nailing onboarding: 38 new users, all listed with pics and links. It's transparent and fun, way better than vague claims.

• Hive @BuzzParty in Alicante, Spain, this April. Expect warm vibes, great food, and crypto talks.

• Also, the Crypto Conference in Dortmund on September 3 October 16-17 might be worth the train ride.

Shoutout to @Meno for getting his DHF proposal approved for Snapie mobile app. Smart move: build first, propose later. We can't wait to try it.

We stumbled on the Baltic HoneyBadger Expo in Riga using Arcade on Arc Network for Bitcoin Lightning payments. Super fast, under six seconds. It reminds us of @v4vapp. Maybe something interesting for @brianoflondon? Here is the link to post on X: https://x.com/prashanthc123/status/1962407340105195966

Finally, our buddy @sagarkothari88 is on fire with updates on dApps. We gotta interview him soon, but first we are going to have a podcast with The @Skatehive crew. These passionate skateboarders are coding late nights. We might hit a local skate shop after for some real-world Hive chats. Strategy is key!

That's episode 45, folks. Thanks for tuning in. Hit us up on YouTube for watch hours, subscribe, and support however you can. Until next time!
