Thou dost dream a bit much, methinks. Even the best of the ancient marvels, the pyramids, or the best of the modern ones, Hoover dam, won't last forever. If humanity were to disappear tomorrow, they would last thousands of years. But eventually nature would destroy them. The water itself would eventually destroy the dam, and the pyramids would be buried under sand once more, then also destroyed by water when the climate shifts, as it tends to do in that area every 10000 or so years. Hive won't survive anywhere near as long. The blockchain is only as good as the witnesses, and we don't even have all that many of them. The Hive ledger will exist as long as computing? Nayβonly as long as the witnesses choose to keep it going. If they give it up, it will disappear about as fast as Geocities did, which was cached by even more servers than the Hive blockchain is written to, yet with few exceptions, it is nearly completely gone.
But everything in life and the universe is ephemeral, so this is actually ok and normal. We write to write. We write because we are writers. We write because we would write even if no one read what we wrote (and let's be honest, that's about all that reads most of us here). We write because we are in love with words, how they look and how they sound, and we fancy we might one day turn a phrase like the Bard. There is no other reason, at least not here, nor ultimately anywhere.
just WOW !!!
see, it takes people like you to bring the flame, the soul, the heartbeat
and everything makes sense and everyone follows and understand what a brotherhood really is.
i believe in HIVE because it has a good star ( in astro )
but also because it has what any great community or movement need...
worshipers of the stars and passionate sunshines..people like you π©·
