RE: Ithaqa Comic Makes the Jump To Hive!

Glad to have you here on Hive.

Communities seem to work the same on Hive.

The tribe tokens, I've been noticing they are automatically beeing gradually transferred and staked over time every day or so as shown in the new Engine portion of my wallet. I'm not sure exactly how to transfer over the rest of my tribe tokens, or if I should just leave them there. Not sure if tagging tribes is activating rewards for posts the same as before, because I do not know how to view incoming token rewards, but I've been using those tags the same as before.

Peakd.com is the website for using enhanced features (replacing steampeak).
Hive.blog is the standard website replacing steemit.com.
engage.hivechain.app is a new app to assist with responding to mentions.

Sort:  

Awesome, thank you! That mentions app sounds useful, one of the things that was always way too hard to figure out for me on steam.

I must admit, I have no idea what you mean when you say tribe tokens haha

Prior to communities, we had tribes.

On steem, we could use tags like #creativecoin #palnet #neoxian and hundreds more to earn a token. On steempeak, the incoming token rewards for these posts would appear when you mouseover the post rewards. Other tokens were being given manually as tips, so many tokens were being rewarded for great posts in this way too.

After receiving some tokens, you would go to steem-engine.com, and now hive-engine.com, to access all of the tokens you earned.

Engine tokens were made on a somewhat sister chain, to reward people on the main blockchain with tokens. Each one can be traded on the engine exchanges. Some of them can be staked to earn incoming rewards just for holding them.

I always enjoyed the ability to add tribe tags to my posts to earn these additional little rewards.

There has not been much information spread about how all this works for people transferring to Hive, but I assume it is the same. Most of the focus and energy has shifted to communities.

The struggle for everyone is in choosing to manage accounts on both Steem and Hive, or one or the other exclusively. Have you noticed a sharp decline in activity on Steem? On Hive I am noticing positive interaction with many people I never knew about before.

Ohhh I didn't know we called those coins tribes, I used to use creativecoin and a few others, never got to logging in and claiming them though. Everyone I ever talk to is telling me that steem is a sinking ship. Plus hive is worth like ten cents more at the moment, which is interesting
