A fun park in Magdeburg
Magdeburg is a city in the east of Germany that may be off the usual tourist routes, but our daughter is working here and so we are likely to visit now and again. So far she has not met any other Brits, but there are a range of nationalities here. Younger locals often speak some English, but older ones may have learnt Russian at school. Luckily my German is not too bad.
The city has some historical sites, but also some lovely parks. Generally those are free, but you have to pay to get into Elbauenpark that has a range of attractions.
The Millennium Tower is a huge wooden structure that dominates the local skyline. Inside is a science museum that covers much of human history.
The lower level is huge with lots of big exhibits. You can climb stairs inside or a ramp up the outside.
It is big on working models including this Archimedes spiral pump driven by a treadmill.
There was a temporary exhibition of some nice Lego models.
On other levels are exhibits about various aspects of science. It is something like the London Science Museum, but with less original artifacts. We had a great day so the view was good from the top. The park extends over a huge area. You can get around on their road 'train', but a lot of people brought their bikes.
There is a lake full of big carp. There was much more than we could explore in an afternoon, so we may well return some time. There is a zipwire from the tower, a climbing area, a toboggan run, butterfly house and various gardens. A lot of locals turned up with picnics to spend the day there.
Entry is not too bad at 9€ for adults and various discounts, including yearly passes. Some activities cost extra. They have a few places to buy food and drink. The local tram service seems good with a stop right outside.

You find all the interesting places, A great structure in the shape of a wizards hat but do they have a parkrun. !LOL

No parkrun yet, but my daughter has found some people to run with and will be doing a local race. It's a nice place for it with lots of parks and paths along the river.
It would be nice to sit anywhere around the lake and to rest my head :)
Wow you really are enjoying an East Germany road trip, I used to visit Magdeburg on business occasionally back in the day, many moons ago. I remember it well but never did any sight seeing. I did return a couple of years back on a climbing through windows road trip. Which was epic.
Where is your next stop?
We head home in a couple of days. It's been a nice trip.
Yes, I am sure it has been great parts of Germany
A Wake-Up Call: Accountability and Redemption in the Hive Ecosystem
To those who believe their actions on the Hive blockchain go unnoticed, it’s time to confront the truth. The power you think you wield through downvotes, vote farming, and manipulation is an illusion. True strength lies in doing what’s right, not in exploiting systems for personal gain or silencing others out of fear.
1. The Illusion of Power Through Exploitation
If you’re downvoting critics, running coordinated farms, or hoarding influence to control rewards, ask yourself: What does this say about your character? Manipulating Hive’s reward system doesn’t make you powerful—it exposes vulnerabilities. It shows a reliance on unethical tactics to feel significant in a space that was meant to empower everyone equally.
But here’s the reality: these actions won’t bring lasting satisfaction. At night, when you’re alone with your thoughts, do you truly believe what you’re doing is right? Regret has a way of lingering, and no amount of HIVE tokens can silence the voice inside telling you there’s a better path.
2. The Ripple Effect of Your Actions
Your choices don’t just harm Hive—they affect the people around you. Your online friends may follow along now, but loyalty built on shaky foundations crumbles quickly. And what about your family? Do they understand how much energy you pour into behaviors that ultimately hurt others and yourself?
Every action has consequences, and the deeper you dig, the harder it becomes to climb out. You’re not just harming Hive—you’re pulling those close to you into a cycle of negativity and regret. Is it worth it?
3. Change Before It’s Too Late
The Bilpcoin team isn’t here to attack individuals—we’re here to spark change. We’ve seen the evidence, and we know the impact of manipulative practices. But we also believe in redemption. There’s still time to step back, reflect, and choose a different path.
Ask yourself:
Hive deserves better. So do you.
4. Strength Lies in Doing What’s Right
Real power comes from integrity, not manipulation. Instead of focusing on how many tokens you can farm or how many users you can silence, consider how you can add value to the ecosystem. Create meaningful content, support genuine contributors, and advocate for reforms that benefit everyone—not just a select few.
If you continue down your current path, remember this: you are being watched. Many stay silent, but they see everything. Blockchain data doesn’t lie, and accountability always comes knocking—whether today, tomorrow, or years from now.
5. A Final Plea: Fix What Needs Fixing
It’s never too late to change course. Stop the farming, stop the toxicity, and start contributing to Hive in ways that uplift rather than tear down. If you’re struggling with why you’ve chosen this path, take a moment to reflect. Seek help if needed—there’s no shame in admitting you’ve lost your way.
The Hive community is watching, waiting, and hoping for positive change. Will you rise to the occasion, or will you let regret define your journey? The choice is yours.
From the Bilpcoin Team: We’re committed to helping Hive thrive by exposing the truth and fostering transparency. Let’s work together to build a stronger, fairer ecosystem—one where everyone has a chance to succeed.
What will your next move be?
Addressing the Downvote Issue on Hive: It’s Time for Real Change
Marky Mark Stop the manipulation game Lady Zaza Bpc AI Music
Let’s cut through the noise and address one of the most pressing issues holding Hive back from reaching its full potential: abusive downvotes. The Bipcoin team has consistently exposed the systemic problems that stifle growth on this platform, yet little to no action has been taken. If Hive is to thrive, we must confront these challenges head-on instead of engaging in empty discussions that lead nowhere.
Hive cannot grow if nothing changes. How can new users and smaller creators flourish when they are constantly suppressed by those who exploit the system? Many so-called “whales” contribute nothing meaningful to the ecosystem—instead, they focus solely on farming rewards through manipulative tactics like mass self-voting, spam content, or coordinated downvoting campaigns. These actions discourage genuine participation and erode trust within the community.
Blockchain transactions don’t lie. We’ve seen firsthand the shady methods used to game the system—whether it’s creating alt accounts to amplify votes, orchestrating downvote brigades, or hoarding influence without giving back to the network. Why does this behavior continue unchecked? Talk is cheap. Actions speak louder than words, and until concrete steps are taken to address these abuses, Hive will struggle to move forward.
We have repeatedly presented evidence of these practices, not to divide but to demand accountability. The truth is out there for anyone willing to look at the data. Yet, despite our efforts, the cycle persists. Today, we’re asking again: Can we finally talk about the real issues plaguing Hive? And more importantly, can we take decisive action to protect the integrity of this platform?
Do not let bullies destroy what makes Hive special. Abuse of power through downvotes and manipulation harms everyone—creators, curators, and the community as a whole. It’s time to fight back against these toxic practices and create an environment where all voices can be heard and rewarded fairly.
The Bipcoin team remains committed to exposing the truth and advocating for meaningful change. But we can’t do it alone. Together, let’s push for solutions that ensure Hive becomes a place of opportunity, fairness, and growth—for everyone.
Enough talk. Let’s see action.

So cool! I hope your daughter enjoys it! I have a friend that works near there :)
It's a nice place that we might not have visited otherwise.
I've never been to Germany, but I've been to the other side of that eastern border. It's nice that you speak some German. Locals always appreciate when you speak a bit of their language.
