Hello everyone!
Nearly eight months ago, we launched our #SpendHBD initiative, which has become an important part of our community. We've seen hundreds of posts and videos showcasing individuals spending HBD at local businesses, supporting both the Hive ecosystem and small enterprises. We've curated many of these contributions, celebrating the creativity and dedication of our community members.
Two months ago, we introduced @thedistriator, a significant step forward in our mission to create real-world utility for HBD. Today, we're excited to announce a shift in our focus from the #SpendHBD initiative to the #Distriator initiative. This new phase invites you to engage with the Distriator app, document your experience, and earn cashback rewards—all while continuing to support local businesses.
What is Distriator?
Distriator is a not-for-profit discount/rebate system designed to provide cashback when you spend Bitcoin Lightning or Hive Backed Dollars ($HBD) at participating businesses. The unique aspect of Distriator is that it leverages the Hive blockchain, where users document their purchases via social media, creating a transparent and rewarding experience for both buyers and sellers.
You can read more about Distriator and how it works here.
What is the Goal of This Initiative?
The main goal of this initiative is to raise awareness about the benefits of using Distriator and to encourage more people to participate. By documenting your experience and sharing it with the community, you're not only earning cashback rewards but also helping to showcase the potential of HBD in everyday transactions. This is an opportunity to demonstrate how the Hive ecosystem can be seamlessly integrated into real-world commerce.
How to Participate - Step-by-Step Guide
Make a Purchase with HBD:
- Read how to claim your discount rewards here.
- Choose a whitelisted business that accepts HBD or Bitcoin Lightning for payment.
- Complete your purchase and remember to document the process.
Claim Your Cashback:
- Use the Distriator App to claim your cashback rewards. This process will automatically generate a post on the Hive blockchain. If you prefer, you can use an alternative account for these posts, but remember that any payments must come from that specific account.
Document Your Experience:
- Record a video of your entire experience—from making the purchase to claiming your cashback on the Distriator app. Share your thoughts, highlight any challenges, and provide tips for others who might be interested in participating.
- Upload your video to 3Speak.tv to share it with the Hive community. By doing so, you become eligible for upvotes.
- Use #distriator and #spendhbd tags on your post.

The #Distriator initiative is much more than just cashback. It's an opportunity to be part of something bigger. By using Distriator, you're not only helping to build a stronger, more connected Hive community but also demonstrating that HBD is a powerful tool for real-world transactions benefiting both consumers and businesses.

¡Hola a todos!
Hace casi ocho meses lanzamos la iniciativa #SpendHBD, que se ha convertido en una parte muy importante de nuestra comunidad. Hemos visto cientos de publicaciones y videos que muestran a personas gastando HBD en negocios locales, apoyando tanto al ecosistema de Hive como a pequeñas empresas. Hemos curado muchas de estas contribuciones, celebrando la creatividad y dedicación de los miembros de nuestra comunidad.
Hace dos meses, presentamos a @thedistriator, un paso significativo en nuestra misión de crear utilidad en el mundo real para HBD. Hoy, estamos emocionados de anunciar un cambio en nuestro enfoque, pasando de la iniciativa #SpendHBD a la iniciativa #Distriator. Esta nueva fase te invita a interactuar con la aplicación Distriator, documentar tu experiencia y ganar recompensas en cashback, todo mientras sigues apoyando a los negocios locales.
¿Qué es Distriator?
Distriator es un sistema de descuentos/reembolsos sin fines de lucro diseñado para proporcionar cashback cuando gastas Bitcoin Lightning o Hive Backed Dollars ($HBD) en negocios participantes. El aspecto único de Distriator es que aprovecha la cadena de bloques de Hive, donde los usuarios documentan sus compras a través de las redes sociales, creando una experiencia transparente y gratificante tanto para compradores como para vendedores.

La meta principal de esta iniciativa es crear conciencia sobre los beneficios de usar Distriator y alentar a más personas a participar. Al documentar tu experiencia y compartirla con la comunidad, no solo estás ganando recompensas en cashback, sino que también estás ayudando a mostrar el potencial de HBD en transacciones cotidianas. Esta es una oportunidad para demostrar cómo el ecosistema de Hive puede integrarse sin problemas en el comercio del mundo real.

This is obviously an amazing initiative. Funny enough I have purchased anything with HBD before, I guess this will prompt me to give it a try
The U.S is still not completely crypto friendly even though I live in a crypto friendly state.

Hello @thedistriator
I've been testing the app for a while, it's a great idea. I have some thoughts, I suggest adding the option of adding your own tags when publishing a post. Then the post will be seen by most of my community, there will be more votes, the wheel of returns will turn more :)
You are right
