Hive is already a working version of Twitter’s Bluesky decentralised social media protocol
Do you remember Twitter’s Bluesky?
The company’s initiative to develop a decentralised social network protocol.
[Hive is already Twitter's Bluesky.](https://images.hive.blog/DQmPUo4ogVsEifj7zbn1BNwSvyVATKZnTuZ7gUqga2EdiEK/twitters-bluesky-is-hive.png)
Here’s the description of Twitter’s Bluesky protocol on Wikipedia:
"Bluesky is an initiative to develop a decentralized social network protocol, such that multiple social networks, each with its own systems of curation and moderation, can interact with other social networks through an open standard. Each social network using the protocol is an "application"."
Congratulations Twitter, you are trying to build Hive.
Twitter’s BlueSky is Hive
If you simply replace Bluesky with the word Hive, I don’t think you could have described our own currently working blockchain-based solution any better.
Seriously, give it a go.
Hive is an initiative to develop a decentralized social network protocol, such that multiple social networks, each with its own systems of curation and moderation, can interact with other social networks through an open standard.
Fits like a glove.
Let’s take it a step further and break down each part, describing what is already implemented and working on Hive.
So BlueSky describes each social network using the protocol as an "application", just like the Hive blockchain houses social decentralised apps (dApps).
Each of these dApps or front-ends use their own rules to call and display the immutable content published onto the Hive blockchain via autonomous accounts that users own the keys to.
Front-ends are able to moderate and choose who and what is published, but the open standard of the blockchain ensures that freedom of speech is always maintained at the account level.
If you don’t like how one social dApp is displaying the content (for example, maybe you’re banned for posting illegal content or simply being a pest), then you can simply move to a different front-end that is more to your liking.
Nobody can ever touch your account due to the censorship-resistant nature of your Hive account’s home on the immutable Hive blockchain.
Hive is Bluesky without the billionaire ‘leader’
As you can see, Hive is already what Twitter’s Bluesky aims to be, except for one massive difference.
There is no individual in charge.
Seriously, how can you have a multinational corporation or billionaire at the top like Elon or Jack, building a decentralised social media protocol?
