When I first got to Hive, like any other newbie I was a bit ignorant. I saw a button on ecency called 'witness' and always wondered what that button did. I clicked and saw names listed but had no idea who they were. I was lost for months until I saw a post that encouraged people to vote for witnesses. And I also came across @goldenproject who took the initiative to organize interviews for witnesses and post on Hive so that everyone understands the great work they do to keep Hive standing.
Witnesses aren't just random names, they're the backbone of Hive. They keep the network running, validate transactions, produce blocks, and ensure our community remains decentralized and secure.
In this short animation, I tried to represent them using the idea of a "Hive City."
I spent days working on it and I hope you enjoy watching it.
Fr, we should tell our witnesses "Thank youuu" more often ♥
Scenes from Our Animated Series

The idea of this intro was to give the Halloween vibe that was just concluded.


The idea of this scene is to show Hive is a city and the witnesses are like guardians that maintain the energy flow and protect it from failure.

Let's take part in voting witness. I am also guilty of political apathy and I will change. Let's join the movement

Oh, wow! Before I got back on hive, I never really understood the value or meaning of witnesses. With just this post, I've been able to understand what it all means.
Basically validators coming to a census and making sure things run smoothly on the blockchain. Now, I see why they're important to the ecosystem. Lovely animation, btw! And thanks for sharing this educative piece.
Thank you soo much for engaging !
Spot on ✅
You're welcome.😊
Glad I was able to pass a message across 😊

Nice video
Thank you bro 💯
Yeah we owe them real and huge daily thank you for their great efforts to keep the blockchain running just like you compared them to be guards safeguarding and watching the HiveCity.
I got to know about witnesses and started voting them through the @goldenproject initiative of posting his interviews with them and so far I've been able to vote 13 witnesses out of 30 votes I have. Still a low effort from my end I guess but I just don't wanna vote witnesses who ain't functioning when there might be active witnesses with low votes sha and It will be nice if other Hive users also join in voting for witnesses. Without them we no fit dey write dey earn, you know
You're on point!
Yes, we all should take part
Thank you so much for engaging!!
You're welcome
