This week in Hive Chain News
This week, Hive-Engine started up a P2P testnet with 9 witness nodes. If all goes well, the system will be fully launched in February. [info]
@fbslo also started up a Wrapped Hive testnet with 3 trusted validator nodes. The goal is to fully launch this new system by April 13th, 2021. This post thoroughly describes the governance model. [info]

Hive is home to a growing number of blockchain games. Here's a quick summary of the Hive game landscape.

This Week in Hive-Powered dApps, Tribes, & Tokens
Hive powers a growing number of decentralized apps (dApps). Since they all live on the same chain, one Hive account can access every app. Here's a quick summary of the Hive app landscape.
@ausbitbank's hive.ausbit.dev saw several updates this week. The site now has rewards claiming, notifications, and multiple account support. In addition, various parts of the UI received tweaks. [info]
DBuzz, the micro-blogging dapp, announced an expansion into long form content. A change will roll out in a few weeks and allow for posts longer than 280 characters. [info]
LeoFinance, the finance blogging dapp, has deployed a new "Lightning DB" feature this week. The feature makes the app 10X faster when posting comments. The Leo team also shared an onboarding report. 346 onboarded users have done at least 1 Hive operation. [info]

Hive Engine went down for a bit this week, so I hope their developments help prevent that in future. Too many people are relying on it now.
Thanks for stopping by every week! Appreciate your support
