Music has broken away from tradition in recent years. The digital age has provided powerful tools for artistic promotion, allowing musicians to reach further, connect with their fans in different ways, and showcase their work with greater impact. Music Zone understands this perfectly, and we have been working on new spaces to disseminate music created on blockchains.


We are very proud to announce that the songs of the winners of the Song Challenge editions we have held so far (@obaro & @elisonr13) are now on Spotify, thus taking the music of our community beyond the blockchains. We know that what we do empowers artists and inspires them in their careers. Thus, we are proud to be pioneers in this type of support within the Hive blockchain.

La música se ha salido de lo tradicional en los últimos años. La era digital viene ofrecido herramientas muy poderosas para la promoción artística, así los músicos pueden llegar más lejos, conectar con sus fans de distintas maneras y dándo a conocer su trabajo con más impacto. Music Zone entiende esto prefectamente, y hemos venido trabajando en nuevos espacios para difundir la música creada en la blockchains.

Estamos muy orgullosos de anunciar que las canciones de los galardonados de las ediciones del Song Challenge que llevamos hasta ahora (@obaro & @elisonr13) ya están en Spotify, para de esta manera llevar la música de nuestra comunidad más allá de la blockchins. Sabemos que esto que hacemos fortalece a los artistas y los inspira en sus carreras. Así, nos sentimos orgullosos de ser pioneros en este tipo de apoyo dentro de la blockchains de Hive.

At Musiczone, we have worked to promote the talent of the musicians and composers who are part of the Hive family. As you know, at Musiczone we hold an annual contest to encourage musical creation called Song Challenge, which has had two successful editions, reflecting our commitment to our artists and our initial proposal.


The main objective of this contest is to give artists a real opportunity, as we understand that opening the door to success involves overcoming certain challenges. So why not make that path easier for our artists, who so richly deserve it?

El objetivo principal de este concurso es brindarles una verdadera oportunidad a los artistas ya que entendemos que abrir la puerta hacia el éxito lleva algunos retos que cumplir y ¿por qué no hacerle más fácil esos caminos a nuestros artistas que tanto se lo merecen?.

The Song Challenge offers artists much more than recognition; it offers something much more tangible and beneficial to their career as an artist: the musical production of one of the songs submitted to the contest and a high-production lyric video. We firmly believe that these tools offered by the Song Challenge are crucial for artists to stand out in today's music industry.


That's why we set out to take artists beyond these boundaries and maximize the reach and impact of our winning artists. So, we decided to go one step further and created a Spotify playlist featuring the songs already produced in our Song Challenge. This playlist is not only a showcase of the musical productions of Music Zone winners, but also a springboard for our artists. This way, their music and our community will be discovered by a wide audience outside of Hive.

El Song Challenge les ofrece a los artistas algo mucho más que un reconocimiento, si no, algo mucho más tangible y beneficioso para su carrera como artista: La producción musical de uno de las canciones presentadas en el concurso y un video lyric de alta producción. Confiamos fírmente en que estas herramientas que le ofrece el Song Challenge al artista son cruciales para que ellos puedan destacar en la industria musical actual.


Por eso nos propusimos llevar a los artistas más allá de estas fronteras y así maximizar el alcance y el impacto de nuestros artistas ganadores y por eso, nos hemos decidido dar un paso más allá y hemos creado una playlist en Spotify con las canciones ya producidas en nuestro Song Challenge. Esta playlist no es solo una exhibición de las producciones musicales de los ganadores de Music Zone, sino, un trampolín para nuestros artistas. Así su música y nuestra comunidad será descubierta por una audiencia amplia fuera de Hive.

BRAVO!! Quiero agradecer y reconocer el esfuerzo que hay detrás no solo de este prestigioso evento llamado Song Challenge o la iniciativa de llevar las canciones ganadoras de Hive a Spotify. Es el reconocimiento del equipo detrás de todas estas ideas, propuestas e ingenio. Esta transición no solo amplía la visibilidad de los artistas emergentes, sino que también demuestra cómo la innovación y el apoyo profesional pueden impulsar carreras musicales dentro de la blockchain. Esto ha roto cualquier barrera y abrirá las puertas a nueva audiencia que es fundamental para nuestro escenario y por supuesto para los mismos artistas. Estamos, sin duda, ¡IMPULSANDO CARRERAS MUSICALES DENTRO DE LA BLOCKCHAIN!!

Marky you can't delete the facts Mc Franko & Keni Find freedom on #blurtblog #blurtchain #blurt

In the beginning, there was hope.

A dream:
That value could be created by anyone.
That power could be decentralized.
That a post, a vote, a creation —
Could rise or fall on its own merit.

But Dreams do not kill systems.
Corruption does.

And corruption has found its perfect form:
The scam farm
A ghost in the machine,
Wearing the mask of curation,
Feeding on trust,
Rewarding loyalty,
Punishing honesty.

It does not build.
It extracts.
It does not serve.
It controls.

And if you are new to this world —
If you speak truth, post honestly, expect fairness —
You will be broken.

Unless you learn to see.

So here, in plain language,
Is how to spot the scam farm.
Not with rumors.
Not with hate.
But with observation,
With logic,
With the cold light of the blockchain.


1. No Original Content — Only Engagement

The first sign:
They create nothing.

No posts.
No art.
No analysis.
No music.
Only votes.
Only comments.
Only reaction.

They are not users.
They are operators.

Like a drone circling a field, they move from post to post — upvoting allies, downvoting dissenters, farming rewards like a machine.

Ask:
What have they built?
If the answer is nothing —
Then they are not contributing.
They are consuming.


2. 24/7 Curation Rewards — The Machine Never Sleeps

The second sign:
Non-stop reward accumulation.

Real curation is organic.
It ebbs and flows.
It follows interest, passion, discovery.

But the scam farm?
It earns rewards every hour.
Every day.
Like clockwork.

It votes at 3 AM.
At noon.
At midnight.
Not because it sees quality —
But because it is programmed to extract.

This is not passion.
It is automation.
Or worse — coordinated manipulation.

Look at the pattern.
If an account farms rewards without pause,
It is not curating.
It is farming.


3. Burn Comments & Self-Voting Loops

The third sign:
Artificial engagement.

They post low-effort comments — “Nice!” “Great post!” — under their own content or that of allies.
These are not interactions.
They are fuel — used to game floors, trigger rewards, inflate visibility.

They may self-vote.
Or vote in loops with a network of alts.
A closed circuit of power —
Where influence flows only to itself.

This is not community.
It is a cartel.

And the blockchain records it all —
Even when websites hide it behind JavaScript walls.


4. Massive Delegated Hive Power from Centralized Sources

The fourth sign:
HP from exchanges or known whales.

Check delegation history.
If an account holds millions in Hive Power —
But most is delegated from @blocktrades or similar centralized wallets —
Then it is not independent.
It is a proxy.

Power given is power controlled.
And when one entity delegates across dozens of accounts,
It is not decentralization.
It is feudalism.

The land is farmed.
The peasants earn crumbs.
The lord takes the harvest.


5. Downvotes on Critics — Coordinated Silence

The fifth sign:
Suppression of dissent.

When someone exposes the farm,
When someone traces the trail,
When someone speaks truth —
The downvotes fall.

Not one.
But many.
Fast.
Silent.
Financially crippling.

No debate.
No response.
Just erasure.

This is not moderation.
It is censorship with profit motive.

And the worst part?
They call the victim a “troll.”
A “spammer.”
A “toxic user.”

Projection is the last refuge of the guilty.


6. Reward Flow to Secondary Accounts

The sixth sign:
Obfuscated wealth transfer.

Rewards flow not to the farming account,
But to another — often a spouse, partner, or private wallet.

@alpha receives rewards from @buildawhale.
@themarkymark benefits from activity routed through hidden channels.

This is not privacy.
It is obfuscation.
An attempt to hide the machine’s true ownership.

Follow the money.
The chain does not lie.


7. The Website Hides the Data

And now — the final proof:

PeakD requires JavaScript to view @buildawhale’s activities.
Other explorers show no results.

Why?

Because transparency threatens control.

They want you to look away.
To trust the interface.
To believe the silence.

But you do not need their website.
You have the blockchain.

You have logic.
You have memory.
You have the testimony of those who saw before the curtain fell.

And you have this guide.


The Escape: Blurt Offers True Freedom

On Blurt.blog, none of this can happen.

Because there is no downvote button.
Gone.
Not hidden.
Not reformed.
Removed.

No financial punishment for honesty.
No silent sabotage.
No cartel.

What you earn — you earn.
No whale can kneel you.
No gang can bury you.

Blurt is what Hive promised to be.


Conclusion: You Are Not Powerless

You entered crypto seeking freedom.
You found manipulation.

But you are not powerless.

You have eyes.
You have reason.
You have this knowledge.

Teach it.
Share it.
Protect the new.

Because the next victim could be you.

And when the system fails —
When the farms grow too bold,
When the lies become law —
Remember:

Truth does not require permission.
It only requires courage.


The Bilpcoin Team
We create. We expose. We survive.

Every downvote you cast drives another soul from Hive —
To Blurt.blog,
Where there is no downvote button.
Where what you earn — you earn.
Where silence is not weaponized.

Even Steemit — older, quieter —
Offers more freedom than what Hive has become.

And that should terrify you.

Because when people flee not to greener pastures,
But to freer ones,
It is not the destination they seek —
It is escape.

They are running from you.

Whatever you are doing,
Hold it with both hands.
Chase it fiercely.
Because you only get one life.

And in that life —
Never be afraid to say no.
Never be afraid to stand alone.
Always do the right thing —
Even when it costs you votes.
Even when it costs you rewards.
Even when it costs you silence.

At Bilpcoin we have not scammed anyone.
We have not stolen.
We have not lied.

We have only done this:
Shared what the blockchain already knows.

Transactions.
Data.
Patterns.
Not fabricated.
Not imagined.
Not speculated.
But verified — open, public, immutable.

And what we found is not conspiracy.
It is control.

Go to peakd.com/@buildawhale/activities — if the site allows it.
Look at the account.
Watch it move.
Like a machine.

@buildawhale
A name that should belong to a myth.
Instead, it belongs to a farm.

An account that farms curation rewards all day, every day.
That auto-downvotes users — not because they are wrong,
But because they speak.
Because they expose.
Because they are not part of the circle.

And who owns Buildawhale?
Not some anonymous farmer.
Not a rogue actor.
But Blocktrades
A whale whose influence stretches across Hive like a shadow.

Over 2 million Hive Power delegated.
Rewards flowing in.
Powering down daily.
And where do those rewards go?

To @alpha
The account widely known as Blocktrades’ wife’s wallet.
A silent beneficiary of a system rigged from within.

“We Are Bilpcoin”

We do not stand against the people.
We stand with them.
Shoulder to shoulder.
Hand in hand.
Not as leaders, but as fellow travelers — scarred, shaped, and strengthened by the same storms that have battered so many.

The Bilpcoin team each of us has been tested.
Not by theory, but by life, life itself.
By loss.
By silence.
By systems that mistake conformity for virtue and call censorship “moderation.”
We have known hunger — not always for food, but for fairness.
For a platform where a voice is not priced, punished, or purchased.

And yet —
We are strong.
Not because we were born that way,
But because we had no choice but to become so.

As a team, we have grown — not in spite of the chaos, but because of it.
We’ve learned to build in the dark.
To create when no one is watching.
To trust when trust is rare.
We’ve learned new tools, new truths, new ways of being — not for profit, but for purpose.
Because one thing must be said, and said plainly:
You should never stop learning.
You should never stop dreaming.
You should never stop reaching for what is right — even when the world leans heavily on the side of wrong.

When we began — back in the early days of Steemit — the idea seemed impossible:
You can earn from your words? From your art? From simply speaking your truth?
To many, it felt like magic.
To us, it felt like justice.

And know this: Bilpcoin was not born in boardrooms or venture capital pitches.
It was born in a single mind — one person’s quiet vision, carried like a torch through the fog.
Circumstances, harsh and unyielding, led that founder to let go of much of what they built.
We do not speak of those details.
Some wounds are not ours to expose.
But this we say:
From that fire, Bilpcoin did not die.
It evolved.

Bilpcoin is not a corporation.
It is a social experiment — one that asks a simple question:
What happens when we reward people not for gaming the system, but for sharing their truth?

Our mission is clear:
To reward creators, not manipulators.
To burn BPC tokens, not hoard them.
To return value to the network — not extract it.

We believe in Blurt — not because it is perfect,
But because it dares to be free.
To remove the downvote button is not a small thing.
It is a revolution.
A refusal to allow power to be weaponized by the few against the many.
No more silent sabotage.
No more financial punishment for honesty.
On Blurt, your voice does not lose value because someone feels threatened by it.

And let us be clear:
We have only ever shared what the blockchain already knew.
The transactions.
The patterns.
The truth.
We did not fabricate.
We did not exaggerate.
We revealed — and that, more than anything, is why we were targeted.

Downvotes are not about quality.
They are about control.
Whales farming rewards on Hive are not “supporting the ecosystem.”
They are gaming it — and everyone sees it.
Even those who won’t say it.

How can the world take Hive seriously when its pulse is set not by passion, but by power?
When the loudest voices are not the most honest, but the most rewarded?

But here — in this moment — we dream.
Not foolishly.
But fiercely.

Imagine it:
Steem. Hive. Blurt.
Not as rivals.
Not as fragments.
But as allies.
A united front of decentralized expression.
One network, many voices.
One mission: freedom to create, freedom to speak, freedom to be.

Yes — it would require change.
Yes — some would have to go.
Those who profit from silence.
Those who fear transparency.
Those who confuse their privilege with merit.

But if we stood together — truly together —
We would not be a footnote.
We would be a force.

For now, it is a dream.
But dreams are the first code of revolution.
And who knows what the future holds?

We do not claim to have all the answers.
We only know this:
We will keep building.
Keep sharing.
Keep burning tokens, not bridges.
Keep standing with the people — not above them, not against them, but beside them.

Because in the end, it was never about coins.
It was about courage freedom truth.
And courage, like truth, cannot be downvoted.

The Bilpcoin Team.
