My Hive Highlight: Hive improving lives in Ghana

avatar

This post is for the 2023 Hive Highlight Challenge. We can feature anything from this year.

I want to highlight the Hive borehole project that has brought fresh water to communities in Ghana. @mcsamm and @collinz have been behind this.

Hive boreholes

I think too much coverage of cryptocurrency covers how it makes some well off people richer, but from the start I could see that this blockchain could empower people who might struggle just to get by. Drinking water is something most of us take for granted, but there are still plenty of people in the world who have to make a real effort to get it every day. This project will make many more aware of the Hive name. I would hope that some of them can get online and be part of the community. That opens up possibilities for a local economy using crypto.

Other projects that excited and inspired me include:

  • The growing communities in Venezuela and Cuba.
  • The Hive rally car driven by @ssekulji that got the brand in front of more eyes.
  • The Freechain documentary by @lordbutterfly that I hope to see soon.
  • The meetup I organised.
  • The fact that Hivefest happened in the Americas. I could not get there, but it allowed some people to get involved.

I love that the community is so diverse. You can follow the people who make your feed interesting and fun. In 2024 I hope to see some growth. People say that the stagnant $HIVE price is an issue, but the fact that you can earn here every day is still radical. You need to make it fun too so that you want to keep logging in.

I will keep on doing what I enjoy. I have made a lot of friends here and I hope to meet up with more of them soon. I may well do another event and will try to get to others.

Hive five!

I didn't fully realise the power of Hive as a true Web3 platform until the commencement of this journey. It has been nothing but a transformative adventure that is empowering communities. How could an online platform move from virtual activities to social initiative to achieve this huge success? I am thankful to you, @steevc, for your continual support of this initiative. The #hiveborehole deserves more attention than it has now, but I know that in the right time, the world will come to a realisation of what the hive has achieved with humanity.

Hive is such a positive influence worldwide. I believe it sets the example as shown in Ghana but for all people and situations.

Exactly! This work is under-appreciated, especially by those who just dismiss crypto as a fad.
