📢 Weekly Release Is Live! ⚔️Three brand-new battle rulesets are joining the game this week! We also have an important Alterations Renewal Pre-sale for Visions of Verico collectors, Modern gameplay adjustments, and several improvements to the Non-Card Market. ✨
🎨 Alterations Renewal Pre-sale!Own Visions of Verico cards? Now is the time to secure additional Alteration claims!
You can purchase a 5-year renewal for your Visions of Verico Alteration drops for:
💎 10,000 Credits
💰 10,000 DEC
💵 10 USDC
⏳ This pre-sale runs through December 31, 2026.
After the sale ends, the price to extend Alteration claims beyond August 2027 will increase.
Don’t miss this opportunity to lock in your renewal at the current price!
⚔️ Three New Battle Rulesets!
Get ready to rethink your strategies! Three new rulesets have arrived in Praetoria.
💥 Chain Reaction - When a unit dies, each adjacent unit takes 2 physical damage.
Positioning matters! One fallen unit could trigger a chain of damage across the battlefield.
☠️ Live and Let Die - in this ruleset, the following abilities and effects do not work:
Rebirth
Resurgence
Resurrect
Soul Siphon
There are no second chances!
🦠 Plague Rot - Life Leech and Scavenger now reduce permanent Health instead of increasing it.
Be careful which units you bring into battle. Those normally beneficial abilities could become a serious liability!
🏆 Gameplay Updates
🃏 Modern Brackets: Extra Edition cards are now exempt from the minimum level caps in Modern Brackets.
🎲 Matchmaking: The odds of getting lower-Mana matches have increased from 20% to 25%, while the odds of high-Mana matches have decreased from 20% to 15%.
🛡️ Fixed an issue where Visions of Verico cards could incorrectly receive Survival cooldowns when a player surrendered.
🪽 Mistwing (starlight card): Now receives the Snare ability at max level instead of having no additional ability upgrades.
🛍️ Non-Card Market & General Improvements
New Stickers!
Visit the Artisan Quarter to see new stickers created by community members! Find the New! tag, or sort by New in the dropdown!
🎨 Skin Management
Added the ability to activate or deactivate multiple skins directly from the Non-Card Market.
The Skins display now defaults to All Sets instead of showing only Modern sets.
Skin purchase notifications now include a link to the card details page, making it easier to activate your new skin.
Fixed an issue where removing a listed skin didn’t properly update the owned skins display without refreshing the browser.
🃏 Additional Fixes
Fixed an issue where the Exemplar card’s Mana cost wouldn’t correctly display in red when it exceeded the remaining available Mana.
Fixed an issue where purchasing a Spellbook and choosing a name could prevent Lite accounts from using their earned Starlight drops.
🔥 That’s this week’s update!
Three new rulesets mean three new ways to challenge your battle strategies. Explore the changes, check out the Alterations Renewal offer, and get ready for your next battle!
Good luck on the battlefield, Summoners! ⚔️🏆
#PeakD visualizes $HIVE transactions
as they move through 20 blocks.
Users choose what goes public on Hive.
Public data reaches Hive users across
the network and costs users nothing.
Users get a clearer view of activity
by watching 20 blocks at once.
What would you make public on Hive?
Beyond possible: the video length is 20 Hive blocks long (1 min), not the limits
anyone can stream live blocks from Hive with near-instant finality & one block irreversibility. Read any number of filtered types of transactions in batches, using private or public APIs with HAF (Hive application framework) decentralized endpoints and SQL queries
It is out there now; some say it is Multi, while others talk about Chains.😏
Check Hive if you don't know what we are talking about or update our extension. 😁
sometimes, you have to see something for it to click
@PeakDcom shows you how transactions are created, move through the network, and the speed of 20 blocks, simultaneously
on Hive, what you consent to make public becomes available
everywhere
near instantly
without fees
because the Internet was meant to be built on the things we share, not on coercion or control ♦️
Here are just a few of them, and people are building more every day!

Reminder that your /r RSS is toast this week. If you've got an online community looking for a way to publicly create an agent readable record of immutable content & data...
we have a whole ecosystem of tools for that
click through & discover how to distribute community knowledge
Reddit is ending RSS in November: stuff built on their API has until March to find somewhere else. They've cited scraping as the catalyst.
Public discussion satisfies the itch for learning, marketplaces, and community building. Our take?
Go ahead and scratch, fam. Scrape away.
one of the best things blockchain adds to social is the ability to truly own your voice (and take it with you anywhere!)
sites like @ecency_official are a great way to join up and add to your favorite places for content and connections.
check this video guide explaining how keys and passwords work to give you control legacy sites won't let you have, and allow you to discover even more to do with just one account 👇
looking at charts this week has been a rollercoaster
prices are down, prices are up, markets are wild
people are looking more closely at what else a blockchain can do to get a better picture of what's really happening
Hive's October beyond the trading has an awful lot to see 👀
$HIVE has never paused or frozen.
Code and upgrades are open source.
Block producers signal their versions.
Every holder can vote on chain for
free and adjust protocol support.
Uptime counts more to me when holders
can change protocol support freely.
Reliability has a governance backstop.
an offer we can't refuse?
built in burn mechanisms that up the stakes & create protocol action at the same time
5000 hive:native in just 10 days...🔥
meet a crime family strategy RPG turning up the heat with PvP, no fees & no wait
It's not personal
it's strictly business
it's @syndicateonhive with an onchain gaming experience that feels like the games you already know, pulling you back in
The Players of @syndicateonhive just contributed to reach the milestone of 5000 @hiveblocks burnt forever.
Did you participate yet?

"Uptime becomes an accountability tool."
This is a great take: problems inevitably come up, but how you deal with (and prepare FOR) them matters.
Since inception, Hive's never had a pause, freeze, or stoppage. Planning for security and change together while maintaining that rock solid performance is at the heart of our ideology, and guides how our whole protocol is designed.
The codebase and upgrades are open source, our block producers publicly signal what they're running so you know where your stake influence is actually going, and every holder gets on-chain votes with no gas fee attached so they can adjust support as they feel necessary.
$HIVE voters can replace a witness
without delaying the next block.
No board meeting is needed before the
next witness produces a block.
Voting works better when witness
changes don't pause the chain.
Uptime becomes an accountability tool.
How we change the world:
software you depend on should be software you can read, change and... if it comes to it, take with you.
Every part of Hive's core is open source from the nodes to the API stack, because it isn't about gatekeeping; we make infrastructure that supports choice, freedom and experimentation, so you can make communities, sites, apps and tools ♦️
truly decentralized crypto doesn't have an org chart;
what we do have is a fully public graph.
Witnesses are elected: vote them out or they miss blocks, and the next one produces without a board meeting or slowdown in the interim. Connections, history and API tools sit in the open, owned and used by everyone. The DAO has no keys or controllers, and anyone can propose to it.
this chain exists because a community refused a private acquisition.

@HiveToday@NftShowroom Artists and collectors who can move from marketplaces to chats or create free content portfolios for their process or rock up and play games together, all under the same key verified name, is what really creates a bigger sense of the community that makes the marketplace possible
Art NFTs are common in the blockchain space, but what's often missing are all the tools to share & discover the pieces you create or admire
@NftShowroom is an on-chain platform where work can be minted & collected
open to everyone, connected to social:
artists & collectors meeting across blogs & news feeds, with different portfolio views, forums, personal websites & ways to engage built in automagically... all portable & customizable (no base layer transaction fees is pretty nice too)
Art is a web of relationships & history where often, the NFT is the smallest component but still needs dozens of accounts to do full time management across a ton of services, just to share what moves you
exploring it on Hive means seeing it from every angle, anywhere ♦️
