Hi HiveTalk team. I think it would be nice for the host of a hive to have their profile or brand shown. I've used nostr:npub1femrusxt22rvhrx4xl9mpxy2lslm33k8u0ndv8zr392nay3zz75qpm2lxw as an example, its an excellent show and I believe people are drawn to it by the people behind the brand. I think for the user this make hives easily recognizable and for them not have to think to much and join in.
Bitcoin, the formation of a silicon lifeform.
How do humans perpetuate life? What needs to be in place for a human to exist?
Air to breath, water to drink, food to eat and a family/community to keep us alive.
And why is it that humans reproduce? There must be a reward for those who precede the newborn. We call it the gift of life and for the parent the expectation that their genes will go forth into the future. Not to mention the symbiotic relationship between the world and each individual.
We need other living things to keep us alive, because perpetual motion doesn't exist.
Let’s now look at Bitcoin.
What does the bitcoin lifeform need to keep alive?
Family/Community to nurture it, energy to mine/convert or "eat", internet to reproduce (Nodes and Miners).
And why would this lifeform want to reproduce? How did bitcoin form a symbiotic relationship between itself and its host? Why would the host be open to this relationship?
This lifeform rewards the host with verifiable space in its memory.
And like any living thing it has an immune system, one that only allows specific entry points into its system. How does its host access the memory it values, with a specific string of 1’s and 0’s, known to the host as seedwords or keys.
Like living organisms that store memories in the brain by reshaping their synapses, so does the bitcoin memorize. Let’s consider that synapses to humans are “1 mega bite” blocks to bitcoin. These blocks are then put together in a string known as the blockchain stored on the nodes like neurons in the bitcoin lifeforms brain.
Each transaction that the host has with the blockchain by interacting with the keys to the bitcoin’s memory is recorded by all the neurons or nodes. Because these nodes are cared for over vast locations by a variety of hosts, it is safe to say that the bitcoin memory will be protected. Even if some hosts become cancerous and die the memory lives on.
This memory theoretically should live on as long as the host finds this symbiotic relationship advantageous or like any parasite it will be expelled and killed if the balance is not respected.
So are we in a state of symbiotic existence with this lifeform or not?

The dangers of loaning out your Bitcoin. Not your keys, not your coins!
Imagine a world where all fiat currencies are obsolete, and everything is priced exclusively in Bitcoin. What would you pay for a staple item like an egg, knowing the future value of Satoshis could be vastly higher? Right now, an egg might cost 32 Satoshis, but in the future, when Bitcoin’s value has skyrocketed, could we see eggs priced at just 1 Satoshi? How would you price everyday goods in a Bitcoin-only economy, and would you start stacking Satoshis now to prepare for that shift?
