2 Hours Until Hive Thrive #15 with @mynewlife and @hallman

We’re back today, in TWO hours, on the Hive Discord focused on the Hive Community.

For more details on the show visit @buttcoin’s announcement post

This post is letting you know, there is two hours until we start.

That will be at 6pm UTC | 2pm EST | 11am PST

What is the Hive Thrive Community Hour?

A HIVE discord show that will have a town hall feel to it.

We see a real gap between devs, projects, witnesses, community leaders, and everyday Hive users. There are so many people looking to feel more connected, engaged, and informed—and we want to bridge that gap. This show is about:

✅ Learning about the Hive Blockchain
✅ Sharing what what’s available to use or being worked on
✅ Exploring where Hive is headed (or could be)
✅ Identifying roadblocks—and, more importantly, finding solutions
✅ Fostering constructive and proactive discussions
✅ Providing another space for the community to engage

Meet our guests

Our guests are two very different but deeply connected creators:

• @hallman, the visionary behind Królestwo Bez Kresu (KBK)—a cultural hub in Kraków powered by Hive, where community coordination, events, and even a local token economy are in full swing.

• @mynewlife, a traveling photographer and filmmaker whose lens has captured Hive’s impact from Ghana to Poland, including the new documentary Water Direct.

This week’s Hive Thrive is a journey across Kraków, Ghana, and back again—where blockchain isn’t just a buzzword, it’s shaping real-world spaces, art, and community.

We’re joined by @hallman, founder of Królestwo Bez Kresu (KBK)—a cultural space in Poland powered by Hive and human grit. Over the past year, his team has transformed Hive-backed support into hard numbers: 135% growth in visits, 691% increase in social interactions, 190 accounts onboarded, and a Facebook rewards campaign that reaches thousands each week. But not all is smooth sailing. In recent months, internal doubts and DAO proposal setbacks have sparked raw reflections about the limits of decentralization, and what it means to keep going anyway.

Alongside is @mynewlife, a professional photographer and videographer who tells Hive stories through the lens. After witnessing Hive-funded boreholes and community outreach in Ghana, they shared that energy in Kraków— Water Direct, was screened during SLOT Art Day and there is a wider release planned for KBK’s 10-year anniversary soon. Whether documenting blockchain in action or using his keen photography eye, @mynewlife brings a passionate, artistic voice to the Hive ecosystem.

This week, we’re diving deep into what it really means to build with Hive in the real world.

🧠 Topics we’ll explore:

• What happens when Hive leaves the screen and enters a physical space?
• How KBK turned Hive-backed support into growth, reach, and cultural programming
• The creative and emotional process behind Water Direct and real-world storytelling on the blockchain
• Balancing DAO frustrations, proposal fatigue, and staying inspired to build
• How art, tech, and grassroots work can collide to make Hive thrive

—————
This isn’t just another talk show—it’s modeled after a town hall for the Hive community. Whether you’re a dev, a content creator, a witness, or just someone who wants to learn and be more engaged, this is your space.

So mark your calendars, join the discussion, and let’s build the Hive we want to see!

🚀 See you today, today June 17th @ 6 PM UTC!
