For the longest time, I couldn't imagine a reason to leave bitcoin. Then I found Steem.

Then for the longest time, I couldn't imagine a reason to leave Steem.

But bitcoin wasn't my home then and Steem isn't my home now.

You are.

I'd planned my last post on this chain to be a bitter kiss-off for the fly in our ointment; but if I wanted to talk to him I'd stay on his chain. Either way I don't imagine he'd read it. He's not my audience.

You are.

In 2012, when I became obsessed with bitcoin, reading everything I could, and trying to find or recruit anyone to talk to about it; anyone to share the passion, the excitement, I knew there had to be others like me. I knew you were out there.

You are.

I invited you to the pub every month, for years. I gave away delegations, supported newcomers, hosted Path of Exile races, shared your joy when you pulled that gold legendary; I even sent you a cockatoo.

I engaged, posted, commented, collaborated. I flew across the country to meet you at the Christmas party, and when I couldn't get to Krakow, or Thailand or Acapulco, I was there. Everything but my body, was right there.

Justin isn't the reason I'm moving exclusively to Hive.

You are.

I look forward to interacting with you on Hive.
In addition to finally having a properly decentralised chain, the name change is a big positive.
I'm so sick of explaining to people the difference between Steem and Steam and Steemit.

Hey mate...When we get to HIVE we'll have to be good you know...We'll have to...

BeHIVE!

See what I did there? Lol.

Never going to let go of my Aussieness. I'll defend that to my dying day. 🇦🇺

Reading this from from the other side!
