Oh wow,
There's so much to learn..
Well, witnesses are people who run a computer or node that keeps the blockchain going, they pretty much own "powerful" computers that act as a server to hive which makes it function properly.
I had to read this over and over again before I could grasp.
Still don't understand much sha
Hope to gain more clarity as I read more comments.
Just read through some comments, there was some explanation
They are like those handling the supercomputers using to run the Hive blockchain. If you know how bitcoin is being mined and run on the blockchain, that is like how witness works..
