Hive Communities Analysis | Number of Communities Created, Top Communities by Subs, Authors and Activities
Hive communities have been long awaited feature on the blockchain. They finally arrived officially in February 2020, but were in a test phase before that starting from October 2020.
Communities should allow users to find content of their interest easier and also post in the communities of their interest, allowing them to connect more with people alike. It should help discovering content as well.
With the media tokens update, communities can have their own tokens in the future.
Here we will be looking into the following things:
- Number of Communities created
- Top Users that created the most communities
- Top Communities by number of subscribers
- Top Communities by number of posts
- Top Communities by number of authors
For the number of posts and authors we will be looking for a period from April 1st till June 22.
Number of Communities created
First lets see the total number of communities created with time.
As already mentioned, communities went live officially in February 2020, but they were in a test phase before that. The period above is from November 2019 till June 22, 2020. There is some small number of communities created in October but for better visibility those are left over from the chart.
We can notice that there are communities created before the official launch date, but the spike in the number of communities created is quite visible in February. On February 20, there was more than 200 communities created. Afterwards the number dropped and lately its in the range between 5 and 10 per day.
More than 1800 communities exist now on the Hive blockchain out of witch around 1200 are created after the official launch.
Top Users that created the most communities
Who is creating communities?
This doesn’t mean that it’s a good thing, since having one successful community is better than a lot not but not doing much.
Anyways its interesting to see who is creating the communities so here are the top users that created the most communities.
@threespeak is on the top here. I think this is because they implemented this future first and created some of the already existing communities out there.
Top Communities by number of subscribers
What are the top communities on the blockchain? We will be looking at this by more than one parameter, but for starters lets take a look at the most obvious one, the number of subscribers.
Here is the chart.
@ocd comes in the first place with more than 5300 subscribers, followed by @dtube and the @gems community.
Some other know communities there as @hive.gaming, @powerhousecreative and @leofinance with more than 2000 subscribers.
Top Communities by number of posts
What about the activities in communities? Which has the highest number of posts? Here is the chart.
As noted, the data for the number of posts in each community is from April 1 till June 22. The no.1 community by number of posts is the @gems community followed by @actifit and @ocd.
Interesting out of the 276k posts in the period 166k are made in a community, or 60% of the total posts. Meaning authors are using them.
Top Communities by number of authors
What about the number of authors posting in the communities?
The GEMS community comes first here as well, followed by @actifit and @ocd. These are not the overall number of authors that posted in a community but just for the period above.
Hope to see more communities and more development on this side 😊.
All the best @dalz
