Hello everyone
The news are all over Steem but in case you've missed it a new "sister"chain of Steem will be launched on March 20 and it's name is HIVE.
Here is the official announcement:
@Steemskate goes HIVE
@Steemskate will be activelly curating and resteeming #skateboarding content on HIVE blockchain after the launch. We hope all #steemskate members will start posting their skateboarding blogs on HIVE blockchain too. Let's all stick together #steemskate fam and let's start posting our content on a trully decentralized chain (HIVE Blockchain).
Steemskate will continue to upvote and resteem all skateboarding content on Steem like always for the time being.
See you on Hive

A Call for Help
Vote for your Witnesses
I am sure you've read a ton of posts by people you follow on Steem so I won't go into details. Just a reminder that if you want to keep our blockchain decentralized you must vote for witnesses.
If you do now know what witnesses on Steem are, take a look at the post bellow
Some weeks ago @justinsunsteemit tried to take governance of Steem Blockchain by using Steemit's Ninja Mined stake to vote for his witnesses (they were not even real people, just some bots) and overthrow our Steem Community's democratically elected witnesses out of the top 20 positions. This caused a huge uproar on Steem as no-one wants Steem to be a new facebook ruled by one man (Justin Sun).
All Steemians took action and started voting for their witnesses. We currently have 11 witnesses back in the top 20 spots.Don't waste time, go vote for witnesses. It's super-easy and of course by doing so you are helping in securing Steem's reputation as the best decentralized social media platform.
If you do not know how to vote for your witnesses, take a look at the posts bellow.
How to vote for witnesses via Steemit
How to vote for witnesses via Steempeak
Click the arrow next to your user name at the top right corner of your screen and then click on Witnesses
Then follow the instructions of the post bellow
Every tiny vote helps. Let's take back the governance of our beloved Steem Blockchain.
The @Steemskate Instagram Initiative
If you are using Instagram you most probably follow the @steemskate account but if you don't YES, we now have an official Steemskate account over there. We need to gather followers and start inviting more people to our #skateboarding community here on Steem so we will be starting a fun Instagram #steemskate campaign to get people's attention and onboard more skaters.
How you can help us
It is quite simple. First of all if you don't already follow us on Instagram and have an account over there start following the official Steemskate Profile. Here is the link https://www.instagram.com/steemskate_/ .
After following us, the only thing we ask is to tag us or use the #steemskate tag at your post so we can start sharing all people's posts as stories. More variety of skaters tagging us and we sharing stories of their posts means a lot more visibility for @steemskate.
And that's pretty much it. Just by tagging us and using the #STEEMSKATE tag we can attract people's attention, gather followers and start inviting more people.
More info can be found at the link bellow :
Delegate and earn SKATE TOKENS
Delegators will be receiving a fixed ammount of SKATE TOKENS monthly depending on the amount of SP they delegated. For every SP you delegate, you will be receiving x5 SKATE TOKENS. That means that if you delegate 10 SP you will be getting back 50 SKATE TOKENS every month.
The Steem Power Delegated to us will be used to vote exclusively skateboarding content and give all skaters the appropriate support. Whether we like it or not, a big upvote is a huge motivation.

I will raise delegation for @steemskate on Hive blockchain to 10K HIVE POWER to motivate what you are doing guys! If you want to use a new account like @hiveskate or @beeskate let me know, I have reserved that names and have the keys ;) I you like another name (in case you decide to rename @steemskate) I can create for free any account available .(don't make the desire of a name public for obvious reasons, reach me out privately)
PS Delegation for @steemskate at steem network will be pushed back soon.
Once things are in place with Hive and everyone knows how thinks work we will start moving Steemskate completely on Hive Blockchain.Thanks a lot @liondani! I was thinking about it but I have to ask the #steemskate folks first about switching names. @Beeskate sounds realy cool! Hahaha.
Thanks again for everything bro!
Any news about the name? Will the community keep it like that?
We need to come up with a new name and logo probably.
I'll keep you updated @liondani. I just do not want to rush things. I want the transition to be smooth ;)
I will help you to make the transition smooth enough...
When you guys find the name and make the transition to hive I will delegate 50000 HIVE POWER (50K HP) to the new account you will use to curate skate content.
You are free to inform the skate community about that :)
Holy sh*t, thanks a ton man!
I'll keep you updated!
#SKATEFORLIFE yooo
just saying :)What about @SKATEFORLIFE or @SKATEFORHIVE ^^^
PS
Maybe make a post and let the community give ideas and decide. A POL or something when you get the 5 best names for example...
maybe you must consider another name for the community also ;)
Sweet
Hell yeah bro!
