HIVE is only 38 days old but what happened in this short period of time is nothing less than phenomenal!

One of the biggest problems before the fork was, that many expected that we would be without any exchange other than blocktrades for a few months.

Another problem that bothered many of us was, that most forks that happened on other blockchains (and even on Steem) did not surpass the original blockchain of the fork even after years... so the risk of making this move to HIVE was very high.

The third problem was that people were not sure if enough of the core community would convert to HIVE to give it a chance of succeeding longterm.

All of these problems have been solved or resolved themselves!

Exchanges are basically beggin' us right now to list HIVE, so that they can earn a ridiculous amount on the trading fees of millions of dollars daily trading volume. Exchanges love HIVE and yesterday 3 more came online. Even binance caved in and now wants a part of this delicious HIVE pie. So far we are listed on:

Blocktrades Bittrex Probit MXC Huobi Global Binance HBTC Hotbit Ionomy WazirX (India's biggest exchange) Gate.io
BHEX SimpleSwap.io BiteEU Boboo Cryptex24 CoinEgg StealthEx.io Sequoir Upbit Bitsonic Swapspace.co more to come... correct me if there are more listings already...

Did we surpass the Steem blockchain in terms of HYPE, marketing, current market price, censorship resistance, attack resistance and decentralization? You can bet your ass that we did! And more to come soon... Remember that HIVE is just 38 days old...

Did we manage to get enough of the core community to convert to HIVE? Hell yeah, look at this statistics from @penguinpablo

How did we do it? I really don't know. All I know is that a lot of dedicated people are making this possible and still are giving their everything everyday to make HIVE a giant success for everyone. THANKS to everyone who helped us achieve all of this in such a short time! Love you all <3
