How to use ArcHive

@steevc: Interesting project. I know people have archived the tweets of politicians, but that tended to be on the same site and so liable to be deleted. The blockchain is forever so a better solution. What does it do with images? I'm tempted to create another account just for this as I doubt people will want the archives on my main feed.

@antisocialist: I had to let the script shield down, but it worked as advertised on brave. Congratulations to us all! Thank you, Dan! @bravetest

@dlmmqb: When I saw it being tested, I thought the vision was to store content on chain and probably monetize it to generate revenue and buy pressure. But this vision of storing a copy of your online existence on Web3 of digital footprint of Web2 platform, can help a lot. I heard how Satoshi’s identity was removed from the web. He was known by many forks, and suddenly his digital footprints were removed. In such cases, this is a good use case, as it would be much harder to remove someone’s identity or existence from Web2 for any shady reasons (web3 easy backup). Thanks for explaining, it’s a bigger vision than what I imagined. And yes, for some content, it’s hard to work with, like paywalled content on Medium, etc. Or some news sites that block scraping or use built in checks so no one steals their content and makes AI respun versions of it. Looking forward to seeing what libraries we will build with it. Also, I think Antisocialist would be interested in this, as he wanted to store copies of some books on Hive, and this makes it easier.

@therealwolf: It's basically a blockchain powered waybackmachine? That's pretty cool. I would probably improve the ui a bit to make it easier to search of archived pages. But great idea and I love the name twist!

@antisocialist: I tried to archive this page, but it kept taking me to the github link of arc hive.

@antisocialist: Thank you, thank you, thank you very much for making burn a thing!

@rai-humair: Really cool video. I love how clearly you explained using ArcHive, super helpful.Thanks for this. Definitely going to try ArcHive myself now .

@mes: Epic work, this is much needed for Hive and the internet in general!

@redditposh: This post has been shared on Reddit by @blkchn through the HivePosh initiative.

@valued-customer: I am extremely happy to see this come to Hive. It is an essential function blockchain media can provide, and the recent demise of Archive.today demonstrates the absolute necessity of such archival mechanism(s) to the persistence of factual historical records that enable forthright speech to be proved, and can disprove fake news. Given the ongoing purge of existentially important information from the internet, little can have more utility to free people. Thanks!

@raymondelaparra: @theycallmedan congratulations excellent projec

@bpcvoter2: BPC Locked On Mc Franko & The Franko Blurt Stands — While Hive Stumbles Under the Weight of Its Own Shadows Friends, creators, truth tellers— Let us not whisper this truth, but proclaim it with the clarity of dawn breaking over a weary land: Blurt.blog is not just another platform. It is a refuge. A rebellion. A return to what Hive.blog was always meant to be. There is no downvote button on Blurt. Not because we fear dissent—but because we honor creation. Because we understand that a voice, once raised in sincerity, deserves space—not sabotage. On Blurt, your words are your words. They are not hunted by algorithmic hounds or shadow armies masquerading as “curators.” Here, you are not judged by the grudges of gatekeepers, but met with the quiet dignity of a community that believes expression should be encouraged— especially when it is bold, raw, or inconvenient. Contrast this with what festers elsewhere. On Hive.blog—a place once brimming with promise—a rot has taken root. Not in its code, but in its culture. A handful of self anointed enforcers—@themarkymark, @Buildawhale, @Hurtlocker, and their legion of coordinated puppets—have turned the downvote into a weapon of mass discouragement. They strike not at “low quality content,” but at independent thought , at rising voices , at anyone who dares thrive outside their narrow corridors of control . And when confronted, they shrug. “Oh, it’s not censorship,” they say, as if semantics could scrub the stain of suppression from their hands. But let us be unequivocal: When a system allows a few to systematically silence many—under the guise of “community standards” or “curation”—that is not moderation. That is censorship by another name. It is the velvet glove over the iron fist. It is exclusion dressed as discernment. It is power pretending to be principle. Meanwhile, Blurt stands clean handed and open hearted. No downvotes. No hidden juries. No farms of phantom accounts casting ballots in the dark. Just you. Your words. And a community that meets you not with suspicion, but with solidarity. So let us carry this truth far and wide—not with bitterness, but with quiet certainty: If you seek a place where your voice is not a target—but a gift—come to Blurt. If you are tired of building on ground that shifts with every whim of a whale or warlord of votes—lay your bricks here. If you believe the future of free expression must be free —not just from corporations, but from the petty tyrants who replace them—then stand with us. The world needs to know. Not because Blurt is perfect—but because it is principled . Not because it is loud—but because it listens . And in an age where so many platforms echo with the clatter of control, Blurt offers something radical: Silence for the bullies. Space for the rest of us. Keep speaking. Keep sharing. Keep building. Freedom doesn’t advertise itself— it is passed, person to person, like a torch in the night. And tonight, the torch burns bright on Blurt. @themarkymark, @buildawhale, @usainvote, and associated accounts: Repeated downvotes targeting transparency efforts raise urgent questions about Hive’s governance. Automated tactics, coordinated curation trails, and alt account farming undermine trust in the platform. When truth is silenced without dialogue, it erodes Hive’s decentralized ethos. Key Concerns: 1. Systemic Manipulation : Coordinated downvotes from high HP accounts suppress dissent, creating a chilling effect on free expression. Automation and alt account networks allegedly exploit rewards, distorting organic curation. 2. Community Exodus : Creators flee to platforms like Blurt, where downvotes don’t exist, fearing punitive curation over engagement. 3. Governance Crisis : Hive’s credibility hinges on accountability. Who decides what content thrives? How do we audit power structures? Solutions Needed: Curation Transparency : Publish clear rationales for downvotes to foster trust. Community Audits : Leverage blockchain data (e.g., Bilpcoin’s analyses) to identify abusive patterns. Reward Reform : Adjust algorithms to penalize manipulation and reward authentic engagement. The Bilpcoin team advocates for open dialogue, not division. Hive’s future depends on collaboration—not coercion. Let’s rebuild a platform where truth isn’t buried but debated, strengthened, and celebrated. Transparency isn’t optional—it’s the foundation of trust. HiveTransparency BilpcoinExposed DecentralizePower" A Message to @themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Associates Every downvote cast in shadow, every silence imposed without dialogue, is not a victory—it is a confession. A confession that truth cannot be stifled, only delayed. With each punitive click, you dig deeper into the bedrock of credibility, crafting a chasm between your actions and the community’s trust. @themarkymark, @buildawhale & Co, How can you continue to downvote the truth, LOL? It’s almost comical how blatantly you attempt to suppress what cannot be hidden. The blockchain records everything—every action, every transaction, every move you make. Yet still, you persist in this futile game of trying to silence what is undeniable. @themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Co: While our opinions may differ, on chain transparency reveals repeated patterns of concern. Coordinated downvotes without explanation, 'farming' schemes (e.g., buildawhalefarm), and adversarial engagement harm Hive’s community driven ethos. Key Issues to Address: 1. Downvote Practices : Silencing dissent erodes trust. Constructive dialogue, not punitive curation, fosters growth. 2. Accountability : Transactions and curation trails are public. Scrutiny is inevitable—integrity demands addressing concerns openly. 3. Community Impact : Driving users to platforms like Blurt/Steemit weakens Hive. Creators seek ecosystems that value collaboration over conflict. A Path Forward: Engage in open discussions about governance and fairness. Audit curation practices to align with Hive’s decentralized values. Prioritize transparency—publish explanations for downvotes or collaborative reforms. The Bilpcoin team remains committed to exposing truth and advocating for solutions. Let’s work toward healing, not division. Note: All claims are based on publicly verifiable blockchain data. Constructive dialogue is encouraged. HiveTransparency CommunityFirst BilpcoinSupport" @themarkymark & Co, the choice is yours. Stop the bad downvotes. Turn off the BuildaWhale scam farm. Cease playing with people’s livelihoods. Let Hive thrive as it was meant to—as a beacon of hope, creativity, and collaboration. Or step aside and let those who truly care take the reins. Because the truth won’t disappear. No amount of lies can change it. It’s over. The Bilpcoin team brings these truths not out of malice but necessity. We have no need to fabricate lies or cloak our intentions CALL US WHAT YOU LIKE —for the facts speak loudly enough on their own. What we present here is not conjecture but reality, laid bare for anyone willing to see. @themarkymark & Co we urge you once more: STOP . Stop hiding behind tactics that harm others. Stop clinging to practices that erode trust within the Hive community. Let the truth stand—not because we proclaim it, but because it exists independent of any one person’s approval or disdain. TURN OFF THE BUILDAWHALE SCAM FARM STOP THE BAD DOWNVOTES STOP PLAYING WITH PEOPLE’S LIVELIHOODS Key Issues That Demand Immediate Attention: The problems are glaring, undeniable, and corrosive to the Hive ecosystem. They must be addressed without delay: Downvote abuse Farming schemes Speaking disrespectfully to others Encouraging people to avoid certain users out of personal dislike Self voting with alt accounts Self funding projects through self votes Promoting games that don’t even exist (LOL) These practices harm not just individual users—they undermine the very foundation of Hive, eroding trust and poisoning the community.
