Hive Cryptocurrency Overview and How to Sign Up

https://3speak.tv/watch?v=mes/tdvxnmej
In this video I provide an overview of the Hive cryptocurrency and how to create your own immutable account on the Hive blockchain. Hive was founded in 2020 as a community hard fork of Steem after Justin Sun, billionaire founder of Tron, undertook a hostile takeover of Steem. Since then, the Hive community and blockchain has grown to be a resilient and censorship resistant platform to upload text content, earn stable high-interest yield dollars, and build immutable communities that can't be seized or censored by any central authority.

I also provide a quick tutorial on how to sign up for a Hive account and import it into the Hive Keychain browser extension. One Hive account gives you instant access to the dozens of current decentralized apps (Dapps) and any future dapps that get created. Start your journey into Web3 today!
