Our move?
🔹 Unite voices: Use #bilpcoin or #bpc to highlight censorship & demand accountability.
🔹 Document abuse: Share evidence of unfair downvotes, self-voting scams, and double standards.
🔹 Push for reform: Advocate for transparent governance, vote caps, and community-driven rules.

Decentralization isn’t just a feature—it’s a fight. Let’s model fairness, rally allies, and pressure Hive to live up to its ideals.

Don't forget that Blocktunes.net encompasses all music related posts using the 'music' tag, so it's an all in one place for tunes on Hive. I have streamlined the whole platform to just focus on the community and the front end and not so much about the services and even working on an EVM stand alone app. Going to getting back to my own mixes and such as well.

Do you have any ideas of things we can do to help build it back up? Not sure... As an electronic musician, I can think of remix contests and such, But there aren't many of us on Hive, lol.

This sounds very interesting! I'm not a musician, but the same principles can probably be used for many other creative endeavors too. Thank you for hosting these excellent conversations! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
