Quick Guide about Hive (HIVE) and Its Decentralized Blockchain
Hive is a cutting-edge, futuristic, decentralized blockchain and ecosystem that is designed to grow in order to gain acceptance as a widely used platform and currency.
What is Hive (HIVE)
Hive’s ultra-rapid processing rates and fee-free transactions have placed it among the top Web3 blockchains used by users globally.
Delegated Proof of Stake is the consensus mechanism that Hive uses (DPoS). By making sure that transactions are accurately represented, this algorithm secures the blockchain. A DPoS system is a form of tech-based democracy that uses voting and election procedures to safeguard blockchain from centralization and abuse. Regarding how this relates to Hive, the weight of your vote is determined by the amount of Hive Power (HP) that you have invested in your account. The Hive server, which creates new blocks and maintains the entire network’s functionality and security, is run by witnesses who are chosen by stakeholders.
Hive is the blockchain for multimedia. Blogging, sharing videos, live streams, sounds, and images. Returning the value created by creativity back to the creators themselves. The users are the owners of this decentralized platform.

Where to store Hive (HIVE)?
Hive has its own wallet called Hivewallet, a fast, secure, and open-source wallet for the Hive blockchain. Encryption-wise, it is just as safe as the cli_wallet app provided by the Hive software, using AES 256 encryption and a per-device and per-re-install unique initialization vector. Also, the app obliges you to choose a difficult-to-guess passphrase for encrypting your wallet file. You can opt to store that passphrase in your device’s native keychain if your device provides biometric access (Touch ID, Face ID, or Fingerprint) and you have that feature enabled.
