This post is letting you know, there is two hours until we start. 

That will be at  6pm UTC | 2pm EST | 11am PST

#### What is the Hive Thrive Community Hour?
A HIVE discord show that will have a town hall feel to it.
We see a real gap between devs, projects, witnesses, community leaders, and everyday Hive users. There are so many people looking to feel more connected, engaged, and informed—and we want to bridge that gap. This show is about:

✅ Learning about the Hive Blockchain
✅ Sharing what what’s available to use or being worked on
✅ Exploring where Hive is headed (or could be)
✅ Identifying roadblocks—and, more importantly, finding solutions
✅ Fostering constructive and proactive discussions
✅ Providing another space for the community to engage
#### Meet our guest
@ura-soul
Our guest this week is a long-time Hive witness, developer, and one of the platform’s most thoughtful and principled voices. As the lead force behind Ureka.Social, a Hive-powered social platform focused on privacy, healing, and conscious connection, he’s been quietly (but relentlessly) building tools that reflect his vision of a freer, more ethical digital world.

More than just a coder or commentator, ura-soul brings a philosopher-engineer energy to Hive — someone who’s just as interested in blockchain’s ability to transform society as he is in how it runs under the hood. From his deep dives into intellectual property reform and decentralized identity, to his active role in the Hive ecosystem as a witness, he consistently shows up with a unique perspective: grounded, challenging, and refreshingly human.

If you’ve ever asked questions like “Who really owns my data?” “What does sovereignty look like online?” or “How can we build tech that serves people — not the other way around?” — then this weeks conversation is for you.

### We’ll be diving into…
- His work building Ureka.Social, a Hive-powered social platform centered on well-being and privacy
- Why he’s committed to witnessing Hive
- His philosophical takes on intellectual property, decentralization, and reclaiming human agency
- The Hive ecosystem from a long-view — what’s working, what’s missing, and where we could go
- And how personal healing and system design aren’t as separate as we think

🎤 As always, the chat is open during the show, and the after-show continues the conversation
—————
This isn’t just another talk show—it’s modeled after a town hall for the Hive community. Whether you’re a dev, a content creator, a witness, or just someone who wants to learn and be more engaged, this is your space.
So mark your calendars, join the discussion, and let’s build the Hive we want to see!

🚀 See you today, today July 8th @ 6 PM UTC!
