Hey everyone, How are you all? I hope you all are doing well.

Today I want to talk about something personal. It is about why I am still here on the Hive blockchain even after six years. Before we talk further let me tell that this is my participation for the contest running on India United community and I will leave the link to contest at the end of the blog.

So, many people do not know that I actually joined Hive back in 2020. One of my old accounts got compromised, which forced me to create a new one, but that did not stop me from continuing my journey here.

There is not just one reason why I am still here. There are many. So let me share them one by one.

The People I Met Here

The first important reason is the people.

Hive is not just a platform, it is a community. Over the years, I have met so many amazing people here. I have made real friendships even though we have never met in real life.

I talk to some of them almost daily, even on calls. And honestly, I would love to meet them someday.

There are developers, writers, gamers, all kinds of talented people. And the only reason I know them is because of Hive.

I Believe Hive Has a Future

The second reason is belief.

Right now Hive is not trending. Most people are not paying attention to social blockchains but I strongly believe that in the coming years, things can change.

Once people understand what Hive is offering, they will come. And when they do, we the current users will be known as early adopters.

P2P Opportunities

This is a very practical reason.

If you are in India, you already know how heavy crypto taxes are on regulated exchanges. That is why Hive gives a unique advantage which is private P2P deals.

When you build connections here, you find people who are ready to buy or sell crypto directly. There is no middleman and no heavy tax burden like exchanges.

For me this is one of the reasons to be here as well. Hive let me meet people who directly deal with me and it's not risky because I know who to trust and why to trust them.

Earning Beyond Just Writing

Hive is not just about writing and earning from posts. There are side projects, games, and opportunities where you can earn in different ways. For example, when Holozing game was launched, people were earning very high rewards just by delegating Hive Power or providing liquidity.

Even today such opportunities exist. If you understand how things work, you can earn tokens and build future wealth.

Hive is Undervalued in My Opinion

This is something I personally believe. I feel Hive is heavily undervalued right now. It has the potential to grow many times from here. Of course not everyone agrees and that is fine.

But if you are earning Hive today, you are holding something that might be worth much more in the future.

A Place for Every Niche

One of the best things about Hive is that it welcomes everyone.

It does not matter what you do:

• Writer
• Artist
• Gamer
• Tech enthusiast
• Photography
• Philosophy

You will find your community here. when you connect with people who think like you, two things happen. You learn new things and you share your own knowledge. That is what makes Hive special.

Hive Became Part of My Life

This is the final and most important reason. Hive is now part of my daily life. Even if I do not post for a few days, I still come back. I check updates, I see what is happening in games like Splinterlands or Terracore, and I stay connected. I am not here just for money anymore.

Right now the market is down. Not just Hive, almost all crypto is struggling. But I am still here because this is no longer just a platform for me. It is a habit, a routine, a part of my life.

So, I am not staying because of profits. I am staying because of the journey. Now I would love to hear from you, the readers on the other side of the screen.

Why are you still on Hive and what makes you stay?

This section is where I will quickly share about my terracore attacks from today, you can see in the screenshot below the attacks I performed in the game today from my terracore base.

I won close to 900 scraps but I am more happy about stacking 160+ scraps just by mining as that is something I never see in my terracore base.

Thank You
