The Blockchain for Web3

A Thriving, Mature Ecosystem

Hive is not a shiny new toy. We’ve been around for a while, and have grown a thriving ecosystem of hundreds of dapps, communities & projects. We are home to some of the most used Web3 dapps in the world, such as Splinterlands, PeakD, and Ecency.

Fast with No Fees

Built for people and communities, Hive technology has enjoyed 3 second transactions and zero gas fees for years. For the technically inclined, we’re a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) chain, allowing those who invest the most time and resources into Hive to realize the most value.

Fresh accounts by default have some free RC to help them start.

Decentralized

Hive is one of the most decentralized blockchains. There is no single entity or organization that controlls the network. Everything is run by the community members.

The initiative behind the creation of Hive was decentralization. The community came together to create something that can not be overtaken by the centralized entities.

Readable Wallet Addresses

Wallet addresses in Hive are easy to remember. They look and act just like usernames in traditional applications. In other words, a username is a wallet address and a social media handle at the same time.

Decentralized Hive Fund

The development of Hive and its ecosystem is made possible by the community. To incentivize crucial work, the same community can engage in stake-weighted voting to fund proposals via the Decentralised Hive Fund (DHF).

Hive Backed Dollar

HBD is a USD-pegged algorithmic stablecoin backed by HIVE. We currently provide one of the highest interest rates in the crypto space for holding HBD in savings.

The interest rate is variable and is voted by the Witnesses.
