Hello and Namaste Friends

HIVE is the new word thats almost trending on the steem platform today and the majority of users are excited about this hard fork of the steem blockchain. 

I have gone through many posts and about HIVE blockchain and in this post, I am sharing my thoughts and understanding about HIVE. I also see that many steemians are sharing their stand whether they are going to be part of a new blockchain or not however at the same time many of them are in a neutral state.  Even some users have shared that they will be working on both the platform. Now since both platforms are going to be the separate one after the hard fork and all the way users will have the choice to choose one or both as per their convenience and interest.

Many users are quite technical and have sound knowledge about blockchain hard fork and how it works but many users are not much technical and they are on Steem because they Like sharing their content with the community and at the same time they like reading too. Fuck this type of user this hard for and many other things are a bit tough to understand and even many of them might not be able to understand which platform to choose. Now since I have already gone through the last hard folk which was known as HF 22 so I have an understanding of how this hard fork work And that is why I am quite okay this time. 



# Which One I am Choosing -  Steem or Hive?
Honestly, when I joined Steem I was not well aware of crypto blockchain and all these technical words like hard for but after spending a year I have much knowledge about it. I joined Steem just because of its fantastic community and earning was never the priority for me. I was not in love with the brand name as Steem and that moment I mean a.m. would have been okay with me provided I get the opportunity to connect with the community and share my thoughts with them. I am happy to share that I got a warm welcome by the community and fantastic support throughout the year and for this credit goes to This lovely and awesome community. 

I joined this platform for the community and stayed here for the community. Earning money was never the priority for me on this platform so at this moment When this community is moving to a new platform then I am going to follow them. I understand that there will be some changes but will handle it and will continue to support this wonderful family. 


I confirm my stand that I'll be going with a new platform Because it's always more fun to stay with the community rather than the platform which stands for nothing. We are such a fantastic community and this is Team drawn drama has put a very bad impression but never mind as we will have a nice time new platform.

*When we don't feel good at our home then we must understand that this is the time for us to get a new one and leave the old one to move on in life*

*Steem was like another home for me where I feel so good and comfortable but not anymore because recent changes here is not making me feel secure future*

# Change may be good or bad but it was Needed
Since the day I have joined the Steem platform I had a thought in my mind that it is a decent life is platform and nobody would come forward to take any decision against the community. We all have seen that recent announcements and changes are showing that this platform is not decentralized anymore and those who are looking for decent ligation then they are at the wrong place.

*With the new HIVE platform coming in, We will enter in another world of decentralization where there will be no company operating the platform and decisions will be made through the collective efforts of the community*

I trust this awesome community and family so whatever will happen next I fine with this change. Sometimes in life change is highly needed and this one is the same situation I feel.


# What will Change for me ?

I dont think much will change for me because most of dApps that I am using are moving to new chain so things will almost be same. However I think initially there would be option to post on both chains and this should be fun. I will certainly enjoy this and will see how it works.
