View this post on Hive: Hosting 33 People for Passover Seder
In mid-February 2020 Justin Sun acquired the shares in Steemit Inc and proceeded centralise the blockchain under his control, improperly using Steemit's founders stake (intended for development and decentralisation of the blockchain) and tricking exchanges into initially supporting his power grab.
After extensive efforts to resolve the dispute failed, the community revolted and formed a new, fully decentralised blockchain - Hive - without the pernicious influence of Justin Sun and his minions.
Because of Open Source licensing, Hive was legally able to duplicate all the code and content on Steem.
The vast majority of the community and decentralised applications and projects moved to Hive and Hive was listed on many cryptocurrency exchanges without having to pay the normal listing fees.
On 19 May 2020, a Steem hard fork (0.23) designed to steal the Steem from 65 accounts associated with creating Hive became public.
My position on this hard fork can be found here: https://peakd.com/hf23/@brianoflondon/letter-to-exchanges-do-not-run-steem-hard-fork-23-hf-0-23-0
This was the final straw for my involvement with Steem.
I will now post exclusively on Hive at https://peakd.com/@apshamilton/posts
All my old Steem content can also be found on Hive.
We just hosted 33 people for the Passover Seder Meal at our apartment in central Tel Aviv.
It was wonderful to bring a huge extended family together from all over the world, some who hadn’t celebrated together for 60 years.
Amazing that we managed to fit and seat that many.
Someone commented that our apartment was like the Tardis!
Huge preparations this week have kept me off Steem.
Pre-Passover cleaning seemed endless at times.
But it was all worth it.

33 family members in an apartment for lunch is an impressive apartment. I know we could most likely have 50 people here for a meal but that is in a house. Happy Passover to you and your family.

The Passover Seder (“order”) meal and service is the most practiced custom in Judaism. For over 3000 years Jews have been gathering together with their families on the first night of Passover and telling the story of the Exodus from Egypt to their children.
