Announcing livegaming Hive Witness
livegaming now is a Hive Witness.
What’s a witness?
Hive Witness is a person or a group of persons who run the Hive Blockchain software on a computer that produces blocks on the Hive Blockchain. They also publish HIVE price feed which helps the blockchain determine post payouts and such.
Witnesses are elected by the community through a mechanism called delegated proof of stake. Witnesses receive HIVE POWER as rewards for producing blocks (processing transactions).
Why a new witness?
For a decentralized network like Hive Blockchain, the more people run the software and validates the transactions, the better. In our mind, a witness is a voice or representative of a community. We felt that our community is under-presented in the blockchain and we plan to alter that. We prefer to give small players a voice. We like the say to the greater hive community that consider us as friends, consider us as your representative so that we can voice your opinion to the governing body of this blockchain.
What’s in it for livegaming?
livegaming has been on the chain for almost 1 year Runing curating contents, helping and representing HIVE community. Now we want to show your support for the chain by taking part in the governance and security of the chain.
What’s in it for the Hive community?
We like for the greater community to enable us as a sounding board, not only as a representative of a specific part of the world but also to rise above the tunnel vision that is typical of many blockchain projects. We want to bring something new to the table. This is in the form of bringing emerging content producers; writers, artists, music producers, comedians that we see in our everyday life, to the hive blockchain. This will not only enrich us at a personal level but it will give the small players a voice, a vision, a unique experience. For investors, and venture capitalists; we like to offer competitive return-on-investment without the hassle in daily monitoring. We are manual curators and will always be the human touch on this blockchain.
How can an individual be involved?
Hive being a DPOS blockchain, every user has a say in the governance of the chain proportional to their HP. We have recently proved that every vote counts. So, vote us as a witness or set us as your witness voting proxy.
What will you do in the future?
We are planning to enhance our curation projects and develop more tools and projects on top of the Hive Blockchain.
What is the mission statement?
livegaming has a vision to curate and support of content across all over the hive interface. There is a desire to on-board not only new members but members who are emerging players in their respective fields. Introduce the power of social media on the blockchain to already established or emerging cultural leaders of the broader ecosystem is what livegaming plans to achieve in the near future. This helps Hive community in 2 ways.... first: enrichment of the platform itself; and second: the spread of 'hive' to a more prominent segment of the social media by enrichment via the 'star content producers'
