Where is Hive as this is just not right.The latest list released from the China Electronics and Information Industry Development Institute (CCID Research Institute)
Like a dummy I was looking for Hive and it kind of miffs me that we are not even featured. Knowing what we know and what has been going on anything out of the top 3 or 4 would be a slap in the face. Not being mentioned is no slap but a full on uppercut.
Hive has been around for over 3 months already as crazy as it seems and the only reason I know that is my power down finishes today and that is 13 weeks.Over those 13 weeks we have seen the bulk of the ex Steem community pack their bags and relocate onto the Hive chain.
Steem is in 15th position and in all honesty has a hugely shrunken community from what it had. Tron is a joke being placed in second spot as we know what type of community they have from our wonderful experiences in the past. In my honest opinion block chain is about decentralization and both of these don't really qualify as we know who holds the power and makes the decisions.
The Chinese have lost all credibility by ignoring the obvious and are favoring their chosen few it seems. How many of these block chains have a truly decentralized witness system and governance? I know EOS which is ranked at number 1 has a one sided coin distribution with many in the hands of the few and is kind of seriously off putting for myself.
Steem has lost Splinterlands which was their big user draw card and what they have left is minimal. Hive on the other hand has been adding Dapps and new users at a regular pace and is growing every week. How long can the CCID afford to ignore Hive before the rest of the Crypto community starts asking serious questions on their ratings. I would like to see an independent rating on their same basis points as I believe the list is swayed in favoritism and is not trustworthy at all.
This current list does not give me the information and overview an investor would possibly require if he was looking at certain key points. How can a list be trustworthy when they have avoided the elephant in the room? Hive is something that is different from the rest of the list and has an every day use case which many don't. The number of developers on Hive is basically infinite as it is decentralized and placing a number on that is impossible so how can that be rated?
Hive will have it's haters and negative people who don't like the way it works but that is their loss. The community of Hive will go from strength to strength over time as they have a community and a genuine one. This is something money can't buy even though some have tried. I look forward to the next list and see what and if there are any changes, but I am not holding my breath.
I bet you money if Steem were still decentralized and censorship free it would not be in that list either. The only reason it is still in there is because of their buddy Mr. Sun.
it is like our ruling party claims they have over 60% support, or North Korea 100. not surprised that there is no hive in their ranking list.
The only reason China is in crypto is turn it into a centralized, dystopian version of itself.
Steem was on the list years before Justin Sun came along so it can't be related.
3 months isn't that long, most on the list are much older. Perhaps our promo-team that we are paying 100s a day for should get on it.
