The person that forked the code, Netuoso, isn't even around anymore. He left Hive, from what I heard. The name Hive was voted on by the witnesses; the name wasn't really important at the time as getting a chain up and running before that lunatic destroyed Steem. DPOS, you vote on witnesses to act on your behalf, and if anything, the speed at which we were able to get to a new chain without centralized management or funding was amazing. Community members with low single-digit stake and far less all stepped up in various ways. So much goes into why DPOS + PoB + DAO is such a good token distribution, and we haven't even reached our final form yet.

Oh, I agree. So much going on like always on Hive.
In some years Hive will be very different and the backbone of web3 imo.
