MIND BLOWING AND SHOCKING ABUSE REVEALED ON THE HIVE BLOCKCHAIN

in business •  3 years ago  (edited)

Note to viewer: First posted on Hive February 2nd

I must preface the rest of this shocking information by clearly stating this is not about me, I just happen to be one of their many targets they abuse. This post is about the consistent wrong doings and destruction of the Hive platform that so many of us hold in high regard; and to share my experience to shed light on the situation at large.

After nearly three months of sitting back and watching @hivewatchers and their associated accounts destroy my blog for reasons that don't even fit their criteria, (see post here here for more info on that) and going against the recommendations of the community (see comments below); I've decided to engage them once again on their discord server and here is how it went. (screen shots from their discord server)

I started by politely asking them to stop down voting me through said accounts.

I'm immediately harassed by two people in @hivewatchers discord chat-room. One of which attacks my race and ethnicity for no apparent reason. Hivewatchers says or does nothing about this blatant Racism. I'm left to assume this is acceptable behavior for @hivewatchers.

After walking away from nasty racist harassment, @hivewatchers finally responds, referencing a line I used to defend myself from the harassers which is 100% true, just look at what they did to @gringalicious and her entire family running off near half a million market cap there alone, and that's just the start of what I know behind the scenes and all I can mention due to promises of privacy from others. Here is their response.

This part I find incredibly illogical. They highlight a true statement from @lichtblick of how my posts on steemit are good for steemit! Yet the exact same post on hive is spam and bad for hive! I'd really like to know how they make sense of that.

Then they briefly wrap it up explaining that five years of other people's opinions via up-votes and positive comments does not mean anything and that I should have been well aware that I more or less suck; a complete insult to hundreds of people who have supported my work over the years and those who chose to continue to do so to this day. Meanwhile they never address the blatant racism directed towards me on their server.

Here is my response.

And that's it! No further response from them other than sweeping through my blog to down vote it more. They've done so much damage to my blog over the past few months that many of my friends and followers here are just totally baffled. I have never once received a comment supporting their actions other than from their tiny inner circle. Before I go any further I'd to thank all those who have taken the time to review what is going on and understand that's it's been a terribly upsetting time for me after growing very attached to my blog with my face all over it.

My debt to the community is to expose the destruction not to me personally but the platform at large. As they may very well be the top abusers running large sums of money and people off the platform and that's not even talking about would be investment and new members. I sincerely know this to be a fact. Is this to satisfy a power tripping sadistic ego? Not sure, but I do know it is damaging and wrong.

As mentioned above here is a list of publicly made comments to my blog over the past few months in regards to their actions. (all screen shots from my blog)

As you can see @hivewatchers has absolutely zero respect for the opinions of any of these prominent members of the Hive community.

Below are screen shots of just some of the comments from my blog posts over the past couple months since this has happened. I've received far less comments than I used to due to the degradation of my account via @hivewatchers relentless downvotes. Meaning, before all this I used to receive far more complimentary comments.....and @hivewatchers wonders why I had no idea that my blog sucked and my posts were "spam".

Again, as you can see @hivewatchers has absolutely zero respect for the opinions of any of these members of the Hive community either; while referring to me as a "scammer".

The only conclusion I can make is that in communist dictator fashion they hate successful consistent bloggers who've built a following through hard work and dedication; refer to them as "farmers" and "milkers" then seek and destroy while using the equivalent of a traffic violation to justify their actions.

This is exactly what they did to another veteran and top food blogger of the platform @gringalicious and who knows how many others. Again running her, her entire family, and their large investment off the platform; for what any of you would consider a minor offense.

Further more, I've watched how they talk to and treat people in their discord appeals room for a while now. They talk to everyone like they are totally righteous, like their shit doesn't stink, and that you are guilty of murder until proven innocent. Then this bizarre onslaught of racist trolls chime in to add insult to injury. It's beyond disgusting. Further more they make people gravel and degrade themselves publicly to get removed from their blacklist. Like this poor Indonesian man just trying to make a few extra bucks to feed his three children. Looks like more racism to me....

Sadly making people humiliate and degrade themselves publicly is a common practice by @hivewatchers. This photo was taken from his blog post, so photo credit @ridwant. You can click here to see his highly disturbing post and see what they've been putting him through, for the crime of not giving a proper photo credit to a picture of a cat from 10 months ago!

Their appeals chat room looks to be loaded with people of an ethnic minority based on western standards. Just totally disgusting. Then if they complain too much and don't immediately gravel and lick their boots, they banish them to "time out". It's just unbelievably childish, racist, and sick. Lets be real, we are talking about some seriously mean-spirited and sadistic people. Just look at the dark imagery on their logos. Is this how we attract investment and newcomers to Hive? Witnesses, is this what you want as your friendly neighborhood hive policeman?

Here are the profile photos of three of their downvoters in order from left to right @azircon @guiltyparties, @spaminator. Their other downvoters do not have profile photos but their names should be known @steemcleaners, @adm. These accounts are extremely well funded and of course they keep it private as to who they are and who is funding them. Meanwhile I've had my real face all over my blog for five years. (again, Photo credit to these four images in order above @hivewatchers below @azircon, @guiltyparties, @spaminator). Very dark imagery and fits the bill perfectly.

A couple of these accounts may respond to this post saying they are not part of @hivewatchers but they clearly work together and are part of the club. It's really amazing how they fly under the radar as basically plagiarism detectives. I'm sure these accounts will respond attacking me and spin spin spin reality. But it's all laid out for you in this post, from a respected five year content creator many of you have gotten to know on a personal level over the years. Meanwhile they are totally anonymous except to a small few funding this sick behavior.

Now if all this is not disturbing and disgusting enough; it's been brought to my attention that these accounts are riddled with suspicious transactions. Small amounts and large amounts of money constantly coming and going especially from the @hivewatchers account. I personally am not a financial investigator and have no way of knowing if these transaction are legit or not, but it looks like there may be some sort of set up where the more they punish and abuse the more money they make, which would clearly explain their "over policing" ....again this is just speculation.

With characters and behavior presented in this post I would not put it past them at all. Maybe a commission every time they find a cat photo of ten months ago with no credit attached. Maybe they are blacklisting people then extorting money out of them to be released from their hivewatchers prison. I have no way to prove this nor the know-how, but I would highly suggest someone with the ability to investigate these said accounts do so from top to bottom. When things simply don't make sense on the surface, they say "follow the money" and that is exactly what should be done. Who is watching the watchers?

In conclusion the Hive Social Media Blogging Platform or any social media platform has a very limited future if this kind of behavior is allowed to go on. That is why it's a no brainer for me to remove my once 20,000 + hive from the platform and invest it elsewhere after experiencing such unfair treatment first hand.

Never in my wildest dreams would I think I'd be recommending people to stay away from Hive, and I am not; unless there is a complete failure from the witnesses to step up and to do something about this unbelievable abuse of power. Sadly I don't have much faith anything will be done, as those in the top 20 witness position would not want to rock the boat and put their cozy earnings at risk. Hopefully they realize the boat has already been rocked, and inaction will tell you everything you need to know.

Prominent members of the community and personal friends I've made here over the years are being tagged to bring awareness of this heinous abuse, racist mistreatment of others, potential financial corruption, and ongoing damage to the Hive Blockchain.

Thank you. Much appreciated. I'm starting to believe that my new home may have to be here on Blurt. I already know a lot of people on Hive that are slowly migrating here. The people running Hive have major hidden agendas. I hope you stay tuned for the next drop. If will surely be an eye opener. Thank you and have a great day!

Tell all these hive ppl about blurt if a bunch of those who sound pissed off come blurt will quickly gain value

Hey! I just wanted to apologize to you for encouraging you and others to write your story on last post on hive. I must have been anxious or something, to overlook the level of muddy for anyone to openly side with me, like joining me in my camakazi mission. So total respect for staying out of it, nobody needs that level of drama, unless they ask for it, which I did.

In fact, now that I got this all out. I'm looking forward to turning my attention positively to promoting blurt and that is what I will do. I agree, there are many who have seen my post are disgusted with the behavior of this "cabal", these people need to know about blurt.

Frankly I can't believe blurt has been around for about 2 years. I only heard about it when @frot mentioned it in the comments of my first info drop on Feb 2nd. More people on hive and everywhere need to know that it even exists.

Although I haven't had much time to look at all the platforms this past week, it looks like Hive has really lost the plot and all engagement has ended apart from insiders circle jerking.

Your post was possibly the final straw - apart from dreemit pretty much all the comments are from hive cabal accounts and it really highlighted the total corruption.

Blurt is where a lot of my friends have shifted to and it has a good vibe. I'm also on these platforms:

https://bastyon.com/frot
https://www.vybrainium.com/@frot
https://gab.com/frot
https://blurt.blog/@frot
https://flote.app/user/FROT
And my own blog here:
https://www.frot.co.nz/design/

I did a post about it here:
https://peakd.com/vyb/@frot/may-the-best-man-win

Note the total lack of engagement on Hive now - apart from the auto downvotes it's pretty much all over

I have posted it before and the thing is I am not scared of these people but I just can't be bothered to argue. It's not like anyone is going to say 'Oh yeah! your totally right, lets change things'. A bunch of people will just call you an idiot/selfish / butt hurt some other weird childish shit, then the others will just look away because they are happily earning their 40 dollars a post and don't want to upset the apple cart just yet so they will just pretend it's not happening, even though deep down they know, or maybe some will refuse to even look around and see it with their own eyes. I was one of them for a bit too, although I NEVER didn't stand up for those getting downvoted (to my own expense of getting punished many times) I did continue blogging there cause I had spent years building communities and was getting really good payouts and I tried to somewhat stay out of the drama. It reached a point I really could no longer do it though, anytime it was a post over a few hundred dollars, or even 80 really, it got downvoted and so yeah I could have logged in and made my 20 or 60 dollars per post etc which halved is like £5 - £20 ish or something, enough for a coffee or a nice dinner, but it was actually affecting my mental health and I was becoming more negative. I really decided to just cut it and make it so I would never log back on. Maybe some people can just stick their head down and get the payouts ( those people really don't want to hear this anyway as they prefer their dollars to defending what they believe in at this point). But I do believe most people will get to the point I did where the way your made to feel energetically just logging on outweighs any benefit. I think the best thing to do if you can handle logging n there is to just promote blurt, so at least people who really need it know there are options, because a lot of people don't know it exists, I didn't myself till about 3 months ago.

"I think the best thing to do if you can handle logging n there is to just promote blurt, so at least people who really need it know there are options, because a lot of people don't know it exists, I didn't myself till about 3 months ago."

Man, I'm always so amazed with you deep understanding and experience with these people. I'm a newbie compared to you. But I've got newbie fight and energy. I agree 100%, it's pointless to argue with these people. So I'm gonna just be blurts biggest and loudest blurt promoter ever. It's gonna be great. But I'm not gonna be wild and weird about with all the stuff I've been posting. I'm gonna do in in the most positive inviting way I can. I actually just went all over the comments and mentioned blurt a few time, in the hive post. You've been a real inspiration and source of wisdom in regards to dealing with these people, so thank you for that. And totally get how this can ware you down and you just walk away forever. My strategy is very much a turn lemons into lemonade kind of thing...right now were are about half way there. :)

AWE thankyou and I truly feel you honestly I was as pissed off as you and watch people still hammering at it trying to change the system, some you can have a go at but that one is completely owned by a small organised group and these people are beating a dead horse I feel. But whatever we feel drawn to do we are meant to be. I am with you ready to promote this platform and defend it. Nothing is perfect but we can be ourselves here we just need to remember to never give that freedom up again out of fear. Together we are stronger than a handful of people however rich they are.

yeah I literally felt a sense of dread every time I logged on and I thought Jesus for £20 lol what am I doing. If these people were really our communities too they would stand up with us not just comply for the £s

I think this hit the peak for me a while back so although I do sometimes comment on posts about it like yours here and there I am already mostly just focused on making this platform great and doing positive things.

That is probably best. Especially after already having your run of the mill with it. No need to revisit.

one more thing don't forget they hate good looking people because they are either jealous or they remind them of people that bullied them at school. It doesn't matter if you are the nicest person in the world or the worst, they definitely hate people who are attractive, you can see the pattern and also people who don't fear them and are wiling to stand up for themselves and have enough going for them outside the platform to not be totally dragged into their bullshit.

Hive ppl are obsessed with blurt they read all posts and watch it all the time they even come and comment sometimes. I think they want to see that we can’t form a nice community without dictators, they are terrified of a free community supporting one another to success. I actually think the reason they’re so obsessed with people posting on steem is because they want to isolate your earnings. If you’re only earning on hive then you’re going to become more fearful of the payouts and even more controllable and easily manipulated people when they hold the fear over your head of down votes for not complying 100% of the time

That is completely accurate, totally screwed up on their part, and great news!

They see blurt as a threat. Can't prove it but I'd bet my hat it was the Hive Satanic Cabal as I call them who hacked blurt upon start up. Another huge tell that they see blurt as a threat. They death threatened Steemit witnesses when that all went down, they have not only the motive but the know how to have hacked blurt. It's a figgen satanic tech nerd mafia going on over there. I just love exposing it.

Then they all huddle together and make fun of me as one creepy group for everyone to see. I think it's great. They have nothing to say, but I'm crazy. While a pile of evidence points to them as a bunch of crazy satanist. All this shows how weak and unstable they really are. If they were really strong, they would not have to do any of these things, and hive would be a top 100 coin easily.

Obviously it's completely up to you, people have been sharing stuff about how toxic it is for a while now and nothing changes, it's just a huge argument, with childish insults and others burying their heads in the sand, ura-soul is still going with it regularly, but I really suggest that we just focus on this page and protect it.

well of course they do and they check it often occasionally the smaller accounts they no doubt send comment and engage here. They are obsessed with it because if it works it proves that freedom can work out and when that we can get on and support one another, not just argue with each other and fight for power. On the other hadn't I literally do not log into hive at all, other than to power down wallet, I have no idea what goes on there, I am not focused on it now.

When do I get to vote for you for witness here? hahaha

But seriously....Maybe you already have one, I have not checked.

I am not really very technical I don't even know how to run one but I would love to be involved in helping people to communicate and advertising / design or something lol

I never really pushed any of the others as didn't believe in them enough it's nice to be able to finally really be behind one.
