Hive Changing Peoples Lives

Hive Changing Peoples Lives

Good morning Lions I trust you are safe and well I'm not sure about the roaring into action as yet because the markets are down and Bitcoin is trading in the red which, as we know is bringing everything down with it.

But without focusing on the negatives I wanted to focus on Hive itself today. Created as a stand alone blockchain focusing on social media Hive continues to grow with a broad range of developments occuring from Decentralised Finance (De-Fi) to online gaming.
That isn't all it is doing in the broader picture of Web3. Hive is actually changing lives.

If you have followed me for sometime you may have seen a previous video I produced around how people in Venezuela were earning Hive through blogging to purchase food and other things like paying accomodation costs and even purchasing cars.
Another focused on how communities in South East Asia were using Hive income to build roads, this is pretty impressive stuff.

However, today we can top that with the Hive Empowers Communities Project which has supported a community in Ghana, West Africa build a borehole and provide clean drinking water to their community.

Now this wasn't just a small project this was something that has become quite large with community leaders attending the official launch which can be read on the follow up article by the group Agona-Bedomase Hive Water Project was Finally Opened for Community Consumption Today which also brought out the local pastor for the community and a prayer was held for the community event.

Clean water had been a challenge in the area according to the community leader who has been advocating for support fomr the Direct Assembly. When they community learned it was made possible not by the Direct Assembly but Hive blockchain they thanked the broader Hive community for their efforts.

A large cohort of the community attended the official opening which is life changing stuff. As a westerner we have the luxuary to have clean drinking water in each home just by turning on a tap. For many around the globe that is a luxuary.

The market might be down today and you maybe hurting over lost funds, but in a small regional community in Ghana, West Africa an entire community has access to clean drinking water because of web3.

Amazing.
