Welcome Back to CBRS Podcast Episode 48 ❤️
Hey everyone, we're back with another episode of the CBRS #Podcast, and this time it's number 48. Things have been wild lately, like "living in a banana republic with crazy events everywhere". But we kept this one short because we're on a tight schedule, @minigunner had to pick up his son @Dovycola from school. We jumped right in without getting too deep into the madness. There was even a funny moment with a door slamming shut from the wind, reminding us of that old song about earth, wind, and fire. You know, September vibes. We chatted about how entertainment comes in good and bad forms these days, with so much happening around the world. But let's get to the fun stuff.
Spinning the Wheel for Hive-Echo Winners
As always, we started with @Hive-Echo, our favorite segment where we spin the wheel of names to give away rewards. We had 50 HIVE ready, and we spun five times to pick the winners, each getting 10 HIVE, supported by @threespeak. If you're new to this, head over to the @Hive-Echo account, grab those low-hanging fruits, earn rewards, and you might win from us too.
A quick reminder for everyone entering: please show the dates on your posts so we can easily check the stats. Rules are simple, just follow them. We have a specific post explaining exactly how it works, so tag us if you're confused.
Here is the article by the way: https://hive.blog/hive-197333/@coldbeetrootsoup/the-journey-of-a-hivean
Now, the winners! First up is @eunice9200, or as we joked, like Beverly Hills 90210. Congrats! Next, @hiventhusiast, full of enthusiasm. Then @palabras1, another solid win. Number four goes to @zoe01 everyone, a new face which shows anyone can win. And finally, @aafra123, wrapping it up like Mambo Number Five. Big congrats to all, and thanks to Three Speak for the support. Don't be selfish, invite your friends to join, it's for the greater good of Hive on the web too.
Buzzing News from the Hive World
We dove into some exciting updates. First, the @zypto app is a game-changer. You can put your crypto like HIVE, HBD, or Bitcoin into it and use it like a Visa card anywhere, not just where they accept crypto. It's synced with your Hive account, so changes show up right away. But here's a big warning: they ask for your master key, which you should never share of your main account. Create a new account just for Zypto, add funds as needed, and keep your main one safe.
We tried getting a virtual card, but you have to buy some crypto first, unlike other platforms where it's instant. We couldn't buy HIVE or HBD due to a glitch, and we tagged @zypto on X about it but no reply yet.
Last week, we had an awesome chat with the @skatehive team. Those guys are incredible, building their own world with nonstop coding and ideas. It's like entering a Hive of activity every time we connect. They deserve more attention from Hive, especially since they built everything themselves without help, like sleepless nights and all. We brainstormed cool stuff like skate spots on world maps. Check out the full podcast with them, it's long but worth it.
#CodeHive is open for new submissions until November 20th, so get in there if you have ideas. Prizes were big last time, around 10,000 bucks, but we want more details on tasks and winners.
Shoutout to @themarkymark for his new Hive tool, Hive Analytics. It's perfect for digging into data without needing SQL skills. We loved the rally car detail, like the money zooming off. Support him, he's been killing it for ages.
There's a new app called @snapie on the Apple Store, not Google yet, for easy Hive use. We haven't tried it fully, but if you have a review or video, drop it in the comments and we'll share.
Hive is an official partner at the Ghana Youth Tech Summit, which is huge. We had one before that was packed, and Hive is growing strong in Ghana and Nigeria. Speaking of, the @happycustomer Supermarket is thriving, covering ground with seminars and more. They're paying back loans and changing lives, all thanks to @thedistriator kickstarter. It's inspiring.
Shoutouts and What's Next
Big love to @eddiespino and @sagarkothari88 for their nonstop work. They're putting in free time from morning to night, and even with personal stuff like Sagar's mom in the hospital (she's doing better now), they keep going. @starkerz always raves about them too. These guys deserve more recognition.
We teased some heavier topics, like earthquakes and bombshells not just in the real world but in Hive too. Lots of interesting stuff brewing, but we'll let it sit and maybe dive in next week. We've had intense moments before where we poured our hearts out, even redoing episodes to tone it down. Sometimes things need to be said, but for now, we're watching.
That's it for this episode! Thanks for listening. Check our YouTube channel for more, we need those watch hours. See you next week, guys. Peace!
