SPK Airdrop is coming
=====================

> January 6th, 2022 at midnight PST is the date fixed for the snapshot and it promises to be a 1:1 snapshot of HIVE (liquid and staked) balances on Hive blockchain.

> The SPK Network is a decentralized Web 3.0 protocol that rewards value creators and infrastructure providers appropriately and autonomously by distributing reward tokens in such a way that every user, creator, and platform, will be able to earn rewards on a level playing field.

I see this as a lower value Airdrop, but here's the cool thing:

HIVE Blockchain has ZERO transaction fees, and account creation is free too.

Means that you can create an account, buy HIVE (on Binance for example) and just Stake it and you can use the blockchain for free.

How-To:

1.  Go to: [https://peakd.com/](https://peakd.com/) and click "Sign-Up
    
2.  Follow the instructions
    
3.  Buy HIVE and "Withdraw" to your account - on [Binance](https://accounts.binance.com/en/register?ref=ZTVH2Q0J) for example Note: HIVE has clear usernames, means your "blockchain" address is your username
    
4.  In peakd go to your wallet

5.  Power up your HIVE

You’ll also receive 2.86& APR on staked HIVE.

What happens after the 6th?
---------------------------

> A one-time HIVE wallet balance blockchain snapshot shall be taken at a specified date and time. There will be a 90-day countdown prior to the snapshot. The claim drop of LARYNX Miner Tokens is once per month, each month to HIVE and HIVE Power holders. Users will have to log into the Speak Desktop App each month to claim their monthly balance.

P.S. We’re hoping for more Airdrops for HIVE users in 2022!
