Blockchain-based communications protocols could be a big theme for 2023

HiveToday #54 - January 22nd, 2023

Hive Bees,

Happy Lunar New Year!, to those of you who celebrate. It’s been another great week in Hiveland. We have a beautiful new DEX site built by a community dev and witness. A new learning platform is on its way. Hivers in Venezuela continue to use Hive and HBD at local businesses.

There’s a lot of talk on Twitter these days about new blockchain-based communications protocols. I think that could be a big theme for 2023. And I think we take for granted the basic features built into the Hive protocol that allow everyone to broadcast messages and send encrypted memos for almost no cost.
